Am I Going Blind (Bass Player Joke)???
 

So this bass player is getting a checkup at the doctor's office.
The doctor comes in and says: "You need to stop masturbating."
The bass player asks "am I going blind???"
The doctor answers "no, you're disturbing everyone in the waiting room."

i understand the guy is jerkin it in the waiting room.. but why is it supposed to be funny?
im totally missing something here..

I thought it was pretty good, although I'm not sure what being a bass player has to do with it...

Don't listen to them tspikes. I laughed harder at this joke than I have at a joke in quite some time.

Very funny...I liked it.

must be an "in" thing with bassists. i play guitar, and didn't get "that" aspect of the joke

Hell, I don't know anything about bass playing, but I laughed my ass off!

there was a gif a while back that made the analagy that masterbating made you go blind.

now the joke makes a little bit more sense :)
guess its a hit or miss with some ppl.

There's a stereotype associated with bass players that is best described as "lazy slob" (popularized by the "Bass Talk" segment on "The Bob and Tom Show"). The stereotype implies that they are unemployed, uncharismatic, and lazy because they are the least recognized member of a guitar/bass/drums/vocal setup (and therefore have no social skills and masturbate a lot).

Examples of jokes using this stereotype:

Q: What's the difference between a pepperoni pizza and a bass player?
A: Both are greasy and filled with fat, but a pizza can feed a family of four.

Q: What do you call a single bass player?
A: Homeless

Q: How many bass players does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: One to say "fuck it, someone else will do it."
A (another one): One. The guitarist will change it while the bass player bitches about him hogging the light.

By the way, I do play bass.

I liked it.
