Ostrich Joke

A joke that makes sense, but isn't funny enough so that normal people will laugh at it. The term comes from the Family Guy episode "Ocean's Three and a Half" where Two and a Half Men is being filmed in front of a live ostrich.
Man 1:"Have you ever seen Two and a Half men? It's hilarious."

Man 2:"What the hell is wrong with you, that show isn't funny at all. Every joke is an ostrich joke."

that was the joke Ted

You say this when somebody blatantly states the meaning of a joke that everybody got.

It comes from the episode of Family Guy when Peter becomes friends with Lois's father.
Carter: "Ace high or low"
Peter: "It goes both ways."
*everybody laughs*
Ted Turner: "like a bisexual"
Peter: "That was the joke Ted."

An inside joke is a joke only understood and funny to only two or more people or a specific group.

Girl 2: why's that funny?
Group: Inside joke...
