tell me a joke
"lets all tell a joke!!"I was dumbfounded. its not that i'm a boring person, and can't think of any jokes. Its just that, I have truly not told any jokes for a long time. the kind that goes "there are 3 men stuck on the island. The first person.. ..." All i have been sharing are those little supposedly stupid hence funny anecdotes in my life. So there i was having dinner with 2
When I was a kid, i would make an effort to remember jokes so that i can share them with my friends. I always had some jokes to tell. The last time i did that, was like eons ago. Boy! i feel old. I feel like so not a kid anymore.
When i was a kid, it takes so little to make me laugh. Like really laugh, uncontrollable laughter. Now, jokes just don't achieve that sort of effect anymore. Have I lost my sense of humor? Have i become more skeptical about life too? Maybe when we were kids, we didn't have that many life experiences, or funny experiences to laugh about. but as we grow older, funny things actually happen to us and we start sharing these incidences with our friends, laughing over them -- these are our jokes, and guess what? they really happened!! Maybe thats why we, or rather i stop telling jokes.
Yes, there was a time in primary school particularly when we tell our friends jokes. I remember that. sighs. its been quite a while...
sometimes, i miss being a kid. yet when i was a kid, i hated being me.
