A few months ago, a table of four (tired-looking) grad student types came in to the one (Thai) restaurant where I work now in work clothes very late at night, and they all got beers right away, and then when they went to order their food, they mentioned that they had been harvesting currants all day, as part of one of their prof's projects.
"So do you have CURRANT RESEARCH on your CV?", I was like.
And, one (slim) (blonde) (mustachioed) guy said no, but that prof whose area it is always makes jokes like that, it's a thing he's known for.
Later, too, I came up with another joke as well:
Q: What's a currant harvester's favorite drink?
A: Busch Light.
. . .
("Bush light.")
