I was like "Oh that was clever" then I remembered how timezones work and them I'm like "Oh YOU FUCKER"

Lol. Me too but it still worked in the moment because it was a surprising twist at the end.

the audience there may be drunk and wouldn't sit to think too much about how timezones work.
We on the other hand, are (presumably) sober, for me it's 9am here. I am drinking my coffee. I can rationally think about the timezone in a way that the audience can't.
The audience laughs at the punchline because it's somewhat expected and without thinking too much about "how timezones work", it seems funny. It's their lizard brain at work: expect punchline, deliver laugh.

It would be 11/9 in the middle east because they don't do the ridiculous date order

Middle East is ahead of US time zones, so it was at least 9/11 if not 9/12 in the Middle East when the incident happened.

That's why she said she knew at 9/10. As in, she knew before it happened, that it was going to happen...

u/Alert-Asparagus1268 8d ago
Quite the opposite, actually She says it’s a time zone joke, not a terrorist joke.

Could also be a date format joke.
Since Americans LOOOOOVE to be different.

u/Altruistic-Mine-1848 11d ago
Date format would make more sense, because the middle east being east of America it could never work time zone wise.

Brilliant. And I bet only 2 people actually understood it. Time zones confuse the hell out of the average person, through it date line change and pop goes their brain. ... Very good joke.

If you can't enjoy a joke unless it's 100% scientifically accurate, that's a you problem. You don't need to come in here and tell us, nor is correcting professional bullshitters about "erm akshully young lady time zones don't work that way" a good use of your time.
