life in technicolor

I laughed out of sympathy. It was so bad. Getting new material would definitely help you in the long run.

Well clearly you have very elite taste in humor. Let's hear one of your jokes!

I’m holding you to that. People with a sense of humor have to stick together.

Alright, well, let's hear one of your jokes than. Just so I know what I'm aiming for.

Google is your friend; that site is the only reason I know anything while we’re stuck in middle-of-nowhere Ithaca. As for the jokes, I’ve never been a fan of call and response, but at least you don’t tell knock-knock’s.

Huh, well I guess I'll have to start googling and get back to you. Maybe, if I'm lucky, I'll find a few that are up to your standards. Knock-knocks are off the list. Promise.

[chuckles softly] That one was really bad.

Oh come on, you laughed at least! I found that one absolutely hilarious. I suppose I need to broadening my joke collection a bit more.

Oh!

Don't fret over it! It was an extreme lame joke to begin with.

It’s whatever, she’s kind of old news.

Huh, I suppose I should start thinking my jokes through more carefully before actually telling them... I don't know much about that sort of thing. And, to be honest, I've never been a great joke teller.

What a lame joke. Sorry, maybe next time. My brain is a little shot anyways. I probably wouldn’t have gotten it.

No, it's fine. It was a lame joke. But I've got a better one that will make up for it... What do you call a cow jumping over a barbed wire fence? [makes fake drum roll noises] Utter destruction!

Oh. I was going to say, Reese Witherspoon is way too old to be getting in bar fights.

I actually don't even know who she is to be honest. I just know she is an actress that is supposedly famous...

What? That sounds crazy.

No, no. Don't worry, it didn't actually happen. Well at least I'm pretty sure it didn't... I wouldn't really know. It was just a joke that I heard today. You were supposed to ask if I was talking about Reese Witherspoon and I would say it wasn't with her spoon, it was with her knife. Get it? It's a pun.

What are you talking about, hun?

Oh darn, I was working on that one all day. You see, you were supposed to ask if I was talking about "witherspoon" and I would say "it wasn't with her spoon, it was with her knife!" It's joke, but now it's not as funny as I would have hoped.

Tomorrow is not monday.

Well look on the brightside, at least its one day closer to being Friday again.

Witherspoon?

No, no. It wasn't with her spoon. It was with her knife!

I think I know what you mean. I was raised a little differently I guess — manners and propriety are big at my house.

Mine too, well sort of... To the extreme. I just didn't get much exposure to anything else.

What did I say?

Well you did.

Oh... well, my deepest apologies. It wasn't my intentions.

We won’t know until it happens, but I’m betting you’re going to mistake pot brownies for regular brownies, or Jell-O shots for just Jell-O, or something like that.

Oh come on, I may be naive but you ought to give me some credit.
