    The other half of the joke:

    As the pirate sits down at the bar, the bartender also notices that he has a ships wheel as a belt buckle. “What’s with the wheel?” The bartender asks…

    “Yaarrrr, it be driving me nuts”

    Would probably work better with the choclate bar. I had to look up that “Bounty” is also a paper towel brand.

      I suppose it’s just a regional joke. I immediately knew of bounty the paper towel brand but had to look up “bounty the chocolate bar”. I’m from the USA.

      Nah, population wise the USA dwarfs the UK and Canada combined, Bounty is more widely understood as a paper towel.
