The bartender asks the horse "I take it you'll have an ale?"

The horse says "I think not" and promptly disappears.

This joke plays on the classic idea of "I think, therefore I am", but I didn't want to explain the joke before you heard it. That would be putting Descartes before the horse.

I heard a much more simplified version

Renee Descartes walks into a bar.

The bartender asks. "Do you want a beer?"

Descartes replies "I don't think-" POOF
