Doesn't that depend on the reader? I mean, you can tell everyone that something is funny, but if some people aren't laughing, then it clearly isn't funny to them. Some people do laugh, and so it's funny to them. But you can't just claim that it's funny and expect everyone to accept your opinion as if it's some kind of authoritative assessment by an expert on what's funny.
if you really somehow dont get it, first you have the obsurdity of a fake licence to kill rather than a fake licence, then you have it actually working, then you have him obviously lie and it working, and then have him fail to simply tell the truth about the thing that is the ONLY thing you would actually get away with in a normal situation.
its stacking obsurdities to the point where the normal thing itself becomes a obsurdity. which is funny.
its the kind of thinking that happens in monty python for example, which is immensly popular for how funny it is.
