How many surrealists does it take to change a light bulb? A fish!

(explanation)

As you know, one of the necessities to be a surrealist is being as bizarre, weird and unbelievable as possible. Surrealism movement has the quality of a dream; the more unusual and out of the ordinary the better. The infamous light bulb joke has numerous variations. When it comes to surrealists, a fish changing a light bulb seems totally plausible. The reality is not an issue for them, you know? Hope this helped. :)

that's why it's out of the ordinary. a mindly joke.

Thanks for the explanation and for sharing this artistic joke, A7.

These are minor chords, therefore, the bartender is not allowed to serve them. A play on the word 'minor' as an underage drinker or a musical scale, chord, key or interval.

Thanks for the explanation, A7.

Now, I understand. They are forever minors who always walk into bars.

This is a nice joke. Thanks for sharing, A7.
