Opposite to a private joke, a joke which anyone can join in with at any time. However, because of the possible scale of an open joke, it is much easier to kill and gets old much faster than a private joke.
Due to the nature of an open joke, specific times, people or places are usually not crucial to its execution.

Guy #1: Do you think anyone gets these references?
Guy #2: Not as far as I know. Sometimes I think it would be funnier to use an open joke here, then everyone could join in.
Guy #1: Yeah, but I find this funnier.

A mom joke is when someone makes a joke and laughs really hard at it but no one else does. It's pretty much PAST the "fake laugh joke" point.
Bob: Hey hey what did the kids say to the rabbi? Silly rabb-
Joe: Say another fucking mom joke and I'm gonna slit your throat.

The act of completely stripping a joke of all humor it originally possessed by trying to add something else after the telling to enhance the humor, but failing miserably. Characterized by silence and the two others present looking at each other in shock caused by the joke devastation. Also known by some in the Charelston SC area as "Jones-ing it"
Wyatt: What do a gynecologist and a pizza boy have in common?
Merrick: I don't know
Wyatt: They can both smell it but not eat it!
Jones: THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
Jones just joke-killed this by adding "that's what she said" when it is obvious she would not say this and it does not even remotely pertain to the current joke.

Debued on a Monty Python skit in October 5, 1969, this deadly joke has the capability to kill anybody who can comprehend it, in the skit this ficticous joke is concieved in britian and from there is confiscated by the british military to be used a weapon against the german in WWII. At the end of the skit with the germans defeated (with the help of this deadly joke) the british military destroy this joke, so as it can never be used a weapon ever again.
