> isnt the green building , building 54??
yes, there is in fact a building named the Green Building.
it is numbered 54.
it's tall.
crew thruds run up the stairs during the winter.
pumpkins are dropped off of it.
it is a building.
it is not green.
these are all true statements.
the joke has absolutely nothing to do with some technicality why the
building 54 is not a 'real' building. of course it's a
building. that's, like, the whole point.
that's why the joke's funny.
uh.
never mind.
i told you you wouldn't get it.
