An Alaskan was on trial in Anchorage. The prosecutor leaned menacingly toward him and asked, 'Where were you on the night of October to April?'
Disclaimer: This is not my joke. And I sure hope that its not a repost from any of the subs. I am sure that there will be numerous variations out there. So just wanted to let you know that I read it on Reader's Digest Issue 1/09, finding it funny, I wanted to share with the jokers here.
Thanks. :)
I’m not from the US so I’m not entirely sure of the joke here. Is it because from October to April in Alaska it’s just entirely night due to it being Alaska?
Yes, and it would suit your username nicely.
Yeah, it's perpetually dark at that time, but to be fair, Alaska is BARELY in the US either.
Bear-ly?
Move to Alaska. It's dark there this time of year. Lol
Walk of shame with a baby bump!
This is a great Far Side Gallery joke.
OT Is your username related to the Arthas (ICC) death cinematic?

I don't think that's a state of the US.
which means they're right about waiting a while, they know what they're doing
I mean, they did base a recent wow expansion on Alaska
Anchorage does not experience 24 hours of darkness at any time during the year, but this is a typical Alaskan joke.
You need to be north of the Arctic Circle to find a period of 24-hour darkness. That is actually what the Arctic Circle denotes.
During December, in Anchorage, the sun rises at about 10 am and sets at about 4 pm, so the days are very short.
A cop stops Bubba going 75 in a 45 zone. He asks Bubba, you got any ID? Bubba says, I don’t know…Is my tail light out?
By wow, I think you mean World of Warcraft??
yes. im also talking about the shadowlands expansion.
Well, I haven't played it. The main game or the expansion.
Me neither. Heard WoW’s gone downhill.
Lol. That's true. Haven't heard a peep about it in like a decade.
No chance, I live in Ketchikan and the sun sets at 3:30. We're still a month from the winter solstice, and Anchorage is significantly further north. Sunrise may be at 10 for them, but sunset would have to be 3ish
In hindsight, I thought it was. But I've removed it now. :)
Wow! 69 up votes. People, just stop here. One night is over.
Lol. it's 68 now. Sum buthurt people can't take a joke. Can't upvote more than I can.
Unless you're above the Arctic circle, it's never perpetually dark
Oooo since you read it on the internet, it must be true. Thats the time it drops below the flat horizon, but it drops below the mountains over an hour before that, which is when it gets dark. You are simply incorrect.
