i tell bad jokes on purpose.
[{"role": "system", "content": "A joke is a display of humour in which words are used within a specific and well-defined narrative structure to make people laugh and is not meant to be taken seriously. It takes the form of a story, usually with dialogue, and ends in a punch line. It is in the punch line that the audience becomes aware that the story contains a second, conflicting meaning. This can be done using a pun or other word play such as irony, a logical incompatibility, nonsense, or other means. Linguist Robert Hetzron offers the definition:  It is generally held that jokes benefit from brevity, containing no more detail than is needed to set the scene for the punchline at the end. In the case of riddle jokes or one-liners the setting is implicitly understood, leaving only the dialogue and punchline to be verbalised. However, subverting these and other common guidelines can also be a source of humor\u2014the shaggy dog story is in a class of its own as an anti-joke; although presenting as a joke, it contains a long drawn-out narrative of time, place and character, rambles through many pointless inclusions and finally fails to deliver a punchline. Jokes are a form of humour, but not all humour is a joke. Some humorous forms which are \"not\" verbal jokes are: involuntary humour, situational humour, practical jokes, slapstick and anecdotes.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "So I tell a lot of jokes, and some of them are just bad. But I think they are funny and it is important to keep the humor in life. "}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I completely agree.  You have to laugh in life for health and happiness.  Ha ha, it doesn't matter if some of them are bad. I usually get the story or the dialogue with a joke but can't always deliver the punch line well. Sometimes those are the funniest jokes."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I think jokes make everyone feel better. My kids like them too. "}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "It is so fun to joke with kids. My two sometimes get a joke right away but when they don't, its even funnier.  They don't get ironic jokes but of course, they get the nonsense ones. Do you have any favorite comedians?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I think Andy Samberg is very funny! I love SNL and all the people on that. My kids also love to tell jokes. "}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Oh yeah, me too.  Love SNL; especially the older stuff. Classic and they just don't write it like they used to. The comedy sketches are unsurpassed in their humor!"}, {"role": "user", "content": "They are, and they do a good job of relating it to things happening in everyday life. It is just such clever humor, which I love. "}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I know. That's how I joke myself...more playing off of things happening in the moment. Phil Hartman was a favorite of mine from the oldies of SNL. He was a great actor and graphic artist too. Ever watched the Retentive Chef?"}]
