Your “humorous” joke doesn’t work because the point it’s trying to make is based on false info.
BTW Tell me what a non-humorous joke is.
The joke worked whether the report was accurate or not.
What is up with you and this hostile reaction?
I was so disappointed when I found out he had no sense of humor, it was all nervous laughter. He had a non-humorous sense of humor. He had non-humorous jokes that were funny only to him. What a let down!
