The term “gaslighting” refers to a form of psychological manipulation where someone tries to make another person doubt their own memory, perception, or sanity. The joke you’ve mentioned plays on this term. When the person says, “Yes you have,” after asking if you’ve heard the joke about the gas lighter, they’re asserting a false statement as if it were true, which is a form of gaslighting. It’s a meta-joke that uses the concept of gaslighting both in the context of the joke and as the mechanism of the joke itself. The humor arises from the unexpected twist on the word “gaslighter,” which one might initially think refers to a device for igniting gas, but in the punchline is revealed to refer to the act of gaslighting.

This joke relies on wordplay involving the multiple meanings of “fresh” and “jam.” In one context, “fresh” can refer to fruit that is ripe and newly picked, which is desirable. However, “fresh” can also mean presumptuous or overly bold in a social context. “Jam,” on the one hand, is a sweet spread made from fruit and sugar, typically involving cooking the fruit until it breaks down into a thick mixture. On the other hand, “jam” can also mean a difficult situation or a tight spot.
The humor comes from the strawberry using these words to suggest that if the other strawberry hadn’t been so bold (or overripe), they wouldn’t have ended up being made into a fruit jam, which is a play on finding themselves in a “sticky” situation.

This joke plays on the common critique of the fine line between cults and religions. It suggests that both are based on systems of belief that may be seen as unfounded or deceptive. The punchline hinges on the idea that in a cult, the leader is alive and knowingly perpetuating a scam, whereas in a religion, the original founder, who might have been aware of the deception, has passed away, leaving followers who genuinely believe in the teachings. The humor comes from the cynical perspective on belief systems and the implication that the only difference between a cult and a religion is time and the mortality of its founder.
