An inside joke is a joke that you share with only a handful of people. It’s only funny for you and the few people that are in on it. You all think it’s hilarious. Everyone else thinks it’s stupid. They also feel left out, but they will never admit that. It’s rude to tell inside jokes around somebody on the outside. You have to feign sympathy, apologize, and explain that it was an inside joke. And it’s awkward to tell them that they should stop laughing because they don’t get it. An inside joke is kind of like segregation. It makes some people feel included while isolating everyone else. An inside joke is the apartheid of comedy.
