I don't think there is any way to answer this without having a
hard-and-fast definition of what constitutes a joke. Humor is a
difficult thing to quantify.

Do you count the "It's spelled just like it sounds--
H-F-U-H-F-U-H-U-R-R" as one joke or each iteration (including spelling
Uumellmahaye) separately?

Ah, either way it's only got seven jokes. Eight, if you laughed at the
Austrian Drunk Driving Test.

Hey now, I love this movie. The first time I saw it, I must have
laughed at least ninety-nine times. A hundred and one, if you count
the snickery smirk that crossed my face when the big surprise about
Merv Griffin was revealed and the shocked snort that I gave when I saw
Kathleen Turner in the fat suit.

Pink, I'm teasing. Between MWTB, All of Me ("Edwina, backinbowl"), and
The Jerk ("The new phonebooks are here! I'm a somebody!"), I thought
Steve's acting career would never end. I even got my parents to watch
"Pennies from Heaven" and they loved it, despite pointing out everyone
who was dead and speculating on the rest.
