I agree. That's an overused joke. Just as you shouldn't ask for criticism from friend or family, there is also a simple rule about being funny: don't repeat jokes. Unless you are using it in a new or clever context, or otherwise making it fresh, don't ever try to get a laugh from strangers by repeating anything they've already heard. Your friends will piss themselves laughing at your Zoolander impressions. No one else will.
