u guys did it, huh?

1) The joke is heard for the first time. It's funny. It remains funny for a little while thereafter.

2) The joke is played out. The repetition becomes predictable and the humour passes into non-humour.

3) The predictable repetition of the joke itself becomes funny, not the joke itself. Often times, the humour is achieved when the joke is unleashed in situations where it's not relevant. The humour lies in the joke's irrelevance to the situation at hand.

ZING FOR ZING

In a way, yes, just like the old "Absolut Musik" ideal of the composers. But, you know, a melody is a very concrete thing too because it sounds in a certain way.
Beethoven never heard his 9th Symphony, but we all know what it sounds like, no?
