It's funny because...

A phrase which is said after a joke by an individual who hears it.

The element within the joke that makes it funny, one that someone normally figures out for his/herself, is made obvious by being verbally described by the individual.

Saying this phrase leads to mixed results. Some may be annoyed by it and feel that it ruins the joke. Others may find it humorous because the element is somewhat funny in itself.

Fred: It's funny because... the mousetrap kills the first one.
Friends: <sighing, shaking heads>

Friends: <laughter>

I want this because of reasons

A phrase used to when one wants something badly, usually something that seems strange or completely random. It's normally used when someone is either 1.) too excited about the item to explain why they want it or 2.) doesn't WANT to explain why they want it. The phrase is taken from the "Pardon Me" strip in the webcomic "Three Word Phrase."
Pardon me, Sir. Do you have anything that will make a butt extremely slippery? I want the slipperiest butt imaginable. The most slippery butt you can have is the kind of butt I want.

....I want this because of reasons.
