I just came across a photo I took of a joke my youngest sister wrote down back in May and thought I’d add it here. I just find this fascinating. We talked for awhile about jokes and what makes something a joke as opposed to just a story, and this is the joke she came up with after that conversationĀ (I’ve corrected the spelling for readability):
“Say the whole world is made out of balloons and the space has real stuff. The balloon cat is not afraid of the balloon dog. How did the balloon cat get scared? The real dog came and scared it.”
