Stereotypes allow a "shorthand" that makes a joke started easier to tell. If you say "There was one a used car salesman ...: your listeners are ready to accept that your story is about a sharp and potentially oily salesman who wither will confound a foolish person or be made a fool of himself.The troubles that stereotypes often are a entrance to prejudice and ignorance about a group. Wgther the spent phrase makes in introduction about a blonde, Moslem, Jew, LGBT person or cripple you know where the tellers mind is going and the prejudices he has an expects you to agree with.

The test is then, is the joke good.

Try telling the joke with with a change of cast - start off with "Well this middle aged white business man went into a family restaurant and saw another person there and he said..." If the joke is still good (does not rely on prejudice) it is a good joke other wase it needs someone to demean to be "funny" and not good. A joke about a Basketball player (stereotype: very tall) noticing an odd tattoo on the head of a bald person (stereotype: no hair on their head) could still be funny, require stereotypes, but be insulting to neither basketball players or people who are bald.
