It's in poor taste, I admit.

But I laughed.

AN ANNIVERSARY OF SORTS
A woman woke in the middle of the night to find her husband missing from their bed. In the stillness of the house, she could hear a muffled sound downstairs. She went downstairs and looked all around, still not finding her husband.
Listening again, she could definitely hear moaning. She went down to the basement to find her husband, crouched in the corner facing the wall, crying. She asked him, "What's wrong with you?"
He replied, "Remember when your father caught us together, when you were 16? Remember he said I had a choice: I could either marry you, or be sent away to prison for the next 20 years."
Baffled, she said, "Yes."
The husband bawled, "I would have been released from prison today."

In comedic parlance, it's a "groaner". We are embarrassed by the fact that it either did (or amost) made us laugh, so we groan and roll our eyes so everyone knows we know it isn't funny.

Even though it is.
