    Hmm yes, and you call it an aristocrats joke despite the fact that it’s obviously not vulgar…

      It’s the opposite, really.

      Steamed Hams is a sketch that’s so comedically perfect on a conceptual level that it works no matter how it’s executed.

      The Aristocrats joke is a horrifically tasteless, bad joke, and the challenge is to make it funny anyway in your own style.
