1. ~ Q. Why can't you play cards on a small boat?

A. Because someone is always sitting on the deck.

ANNOTATION: The different meanings of a word can change the
whole sentence.


2. ~ Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now.

ANNOTATION: Funky way of interpreting words in a normal context.


3. ~ Police were called to a day-care where a three-year-old was resisting a rest.

ANNOTATION: Interesting because when the sentence is being spoken,
the language within the sentence changed.

4. ~ Q:What did the grape say when it got stepped on?

A : Nothing - but it let out a little whine.

ANNOTATION: Words that sound alike but have a different meaning
and gave another meaning or a hidden meaning to it.
