The Rock Hears the Gorilla Joke

Me, a rather bored zookeeper, agreeing to a large and hairy man in a hat and trenchcoat that I, in fact, would like to hear the best gorilla joke of 1897

A bored zookeeper agrees to hear an extremely suspiciously specific gorilla joke from a large, hairy man in disguise. The punchline is the absurd implication that the disguised man is a gorilla, while Dwayne Johnson’s increasingly skeptical expression signals regret and suspicion. It is used as a reaction to agreeing to something that immediately sounds like a terrible idea.
