History Of the world Part 1 "Oedipus & Funky Town"

Just a moment from the film History of the world part one, becuase nobody uploaded it yet. Enjoy!

For the people who dont get this joke:

Sigmund Freud used the name The Oedipus complex to explain the origin of certain neuroses in childhood. It is defined as a male child's unconscious desire for the exclusive love of his mother. This desire includes jealousy towards the father and the unconscious wish for that parent's death. Oedipus himself, as portrayed in the myth, did not suffer from this neurosis at least, not towards Jocasta, whom he only met as an adult (if anything, such feelings would have been directed at Merope but there is no hint of that). Freud reasoned that the ancient Greek audience, which heard the story told or saw the plays based on it, did know that Oedipus was actually killing his father and marrying his mother; the story being continually told and played therefore reflected a preoccupation with the theme.

@vigo894 You forgot to add that, out of disgust for doing such, he blinded himself.

[vigo894]

@beersnob1019= Oedipus slept with his mother, he didn't know that it was her.

[beersnob1019]

maybe people arent smart enough to realize that back story and why this jokes works on so many levels...
