I think that's a selection from the Reddit thread. There's only a few of them (4, 12, 14) that I needed an explanation for.
17, which is a variant on one of mine, irritates me because it's sloppy. If the programmer is that literal, he won't know what to do with the first loaf of bread after he picks it up.
20 was invented by Isaac Asimov in one of his F&SF columns.
10 is usually told specifically about the Dalai Lama rather than a generic Buddhist monk. I once saw a horrifying video in which a reporter, interviewing the Dalai Lama, actually tried to tell him this joke. The Dalai Lama didn't get it.
