I'll repost any Pagliacci joke I see
Man goes to watch famous clown & notorious depressive Pagliacci, but has a major cardiac event mid-show & collapses, writhing. Pagliacci smiles & says 'you should go see the famous doctor who lives in this town - he's a heart specialist with a sideline in gaffe-ridden mental health advice.'
