I’ll admit it, I’m completely ‘Helpless’ when it comes to Hamilton jokes. I just can’t get over how they ‘Blow Us All Away.’ Sometimes, it seems like I’ll just never be ‘Satisfied’ when it comes to witty riffs on the ten dollar ‘Founding Father.’
Obviously, I have listened to the cast album on repeat. But how could anyone not? It’s the catchiest Pulitzer Prize winner out there.
Here are 15 Hamilton jokes that’ll have you laughing ‘Non-Stop.’

Ugh, I just love over-simplified historical almost-fiction – especially in musical form. It almost makes a life in 1776 seem appealing – except for the rampant inequality, disease, and other things like that. You know, the basics.
