Brent H Whether or not a joke is funny, the whole point of a joke is that it attempts to be funny. One never needs to point out a joke is funny, because that's never surprising or unusual.
No, it can be pointed out because a lot of jokes are not funny. He was being descriptive which is fair. Have you never heard, "That joke was horrible!"? Its the inverse. Both are descriptive, the point of the joke notwithstanding.
Brent H Why does it matter that it's descriptive? A joke is meant to be funny, thus the description of it being funny is implicit in the fact that it is a joke. It doesn't need to be said out loud. It's like saying "Look, that airplane is flying!"... yes, that's what airplanes are meant to do - get back to me when it crashes and we'll have something to talk about.
