🔤 Wordplay
What did the leper say to the prostitute?
Keep the tip.
Why This Joke Works
"Keep the tip" is a classic server/client gratuity phrase — but in the context of leprosy, "tip" takes on a grotesquely literal medical meaning related to the disease's effect on extremities. The joke is dark, quick, and relies on both meanings colliding in an instant. It's shocking without being mean-spirited in a way that stops the laugh.
🎤 How to Tell This Joke
Deliver "keep the tip" with the breezy generosity of someone leaving a great restaurant review — absolutely no acknowledgment of what just happened.
Perfect for:
- •At a late-night adult comedy session when dark humor is welcome
- •With a group of medical professionals who can take it
- •During a word-meaning game where "tip" is the word in question
