    Dick: I'm gonna tell you some jokes. Joke 1: I went fishing last week. My permit said I could only catch five. Oh, I caught five all right... as in thirty-five!
    (Harry laughs, but no one else does)
    Sally: Is that funny?
    Tommy: No, no, no, no.
    Dick: But you know... potstickers, what are they all about?
    (Harry laughs, but no one else does)
    Dick: Uh, okay. Joke Number 2: Some termites... I mean huge termites ate my house last night!
    (Harry starts to laugh, but he stops)
    Dick: It's gone, it's gone completely gone! Uh... that's it, that's the joke.
    Tommy: Really sucked.
    Sally: Really.
    (everyone starts to leave)
    Dick: Wait, wait, where are you going? Uh, hey, look!
    (Dick pulls a bald man's toupee off his head)
    Dick: A bald guy, am I right?
    (Harry laughs, but no one left in the room does) edit »
  • Tommy: Okay, could you give me an example of what's funny?
    August: I thought the movie Emo was very funny.
    Tommy: What was so funny about it?
    August: It was full of irony.
    Tommy: Okay, so irony's funny?
    August: Yeah, because you say one thing while the opposite is actually true.
    Tommy: Oh, like when you said Emo was going to be a really great movie when it actually sucked out loud? edit »
