    Can somebody explain why this joke is funny?

    It's in this month's FHM and it's not just an unfunny punchline, but I can't even see what the punchline is!

    OK here goes:

    Bob's working in his shop when he hears a booming voice from above. "Bob, sell your business." He ignores it, but it goes on for days. After weeks of this he relents and sells his shop for £3m. The voice then tells him to to go to Las Vegas. He obeys and goes to a casino. The voice says "Bob, go to the blackjack table and put it all down on one hand." He hesitates but knows he must. He's dealt an 18, and the dealer has a 6 showing. The voice tells him to take a card, and the dealer hits him with an ace. He breathes easy. "Take another card" says the voice, and he gets an ace. 20. "Bob take another card" the voice commands. "But I have 20!" shouts Bob, "TAKE ANOTHER CARD!" booms the voice. "Hit me," Bob says. He gets another ace - 21. The booming voice is in shock: "Un-Bloody-Believable"

    The above facts belong to everybody; the opinions to me; the distinction is yours to draw...

    **** joke, the insinuation is that the booming voice was actually gambling and didnt know what was coming
    "Through me the way into the suffering city,
    Through me the way to the eternal pain,
    Through me the way that runs among the lost.
    Justice urged on my high artificer;
    My maker was divine authority,
    The highest wisdom, and the primal love.
    Before me nothing but eternal things were made,
    And I endure eternally.
    Abandon every hope, ye who enter here."


    And like that… he's gone

            remember when I was about twelve asking my Dad to explain a joke I had overheard earlier that day


            Two nuns in the bath, ones says wheres the soap and the other says yes it does doesn't it


            he pissed himself and then changed the subject

                  Hey Cardinal. I think the original had the voice telling Bob to do all these things...Better when said than written...as if something was in control and you knew he was going to win. Then, at the last, after winning millions on the roulette wheel, the voice tells him to put it all on Black..Bob protests but the voice has been right all along and he does as he is told.

                  It comes up red, he loses everything and the voice simply says...Bollocks!
