“A weasel walks into a bar…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…”  is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” A weasel version is:
 
“A teenage weasel walks into a bar. Bartender says, ‘You’re too young to drink.’ ‘I’ll have a pop,’ goes the weasel.”
 
The joke has been cited in print since at least 2002.
 
   
Wikipedia: Pop Goes the Weasel
“Pop! Goes the Weasel” is an English nursery rhyme and singing game. It has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 5249. The jack-in-the-box children’s toy often plays the melody.
   
Free Republic
A weasel walks into a bar and orders a beer.
The bartender says “That’ll be 4 bucks, pal.”
 
“4 bucks?” replies the weasel, “kinda expensive.”
 
“Well we also have bottled pop for a buck. What’ll it be?”
 
“Pop”, goes the weasel.
 
author’s note: since this is not even remotely funny, visualize weasel chewing on bartender’s privates
