Is it bad that I had no idea where this story was going? I suppose it added to my enjoyment of the tale because I simply observed the silliness as it unfolded, and the punch line surprised me. I probably should have got it a few paragraphs from the end when motorcycles were mentioned, but by then I wasn't even looking for the answer.
The examples got more and more outrageous and the main character more confused and drunk as the story went on. It was amusing how quick his friends were to make fun of him and that they didn't know what he was talking about either. Poor Jack was left alone at the end with no one but the bartender to keep him company, and it was nice that he chose this moment to explain Jack's mistake, even if Jack wasn't in a fit state to understand.
The little asides, beer being spilled and people falling off their stools, added to the setting nicely and gave the readers a pretty clear picture of the scene. You paced the story well and didn't drag out the joke once it had run its course, and the comebacks were witty even if they got sillier as the conversation went on. Overall, a funny and enjoyable story; I liked it.
