This one was actually funny...

Not sure how long ago it was that my older sons learned their first Knock-Knock joke. It wasn't long after that when they learned their second, their third, etc. And they quickly started writing their own. The results were, as most parents can attest, disastrous. They simply didn't get what made a joke funny, and would frequently just replace one word in a joke they heard with one of their own--"Orange" for "Gorrilla", etc.--and laugh hysterically at each other's. (we laughed at their first attempts, and then stopped...only way they're gonna learn they're not funny is to be met with silence. Just wish Carlos Mencia's parents had felt the same way). Not only were they not funny, they frequently just didn't make sense.

Which brings us to this morning. Taking TLoML to work and we hear this behind us:
Arnold: Knock-Knock.
Princess: Who's there?
Arnold: Samwise.
Princess: Samwise who?
Arnold:Samwise and I can't open the door!

Made sense, was kinda funny in that he really can't open the door. We may have struck comedic gold with this kid!
