A horse walks into a bar and orders a pint. The bartender says “You’re in here pretty often. Do you think you might be an alcoholic?”

The horse replies “I don’t think I am”, and immediately vanishes from existence.

See, the joke is about Descartes’s philosophical first principle, commonly known as “I think, therefore I am”, but to explain that part first would be putting Descartes before the horse.

I keep thinking about this… I think I might try to adopt “Descartes before the horse” as an intentional malapropism. · 2 years ago
