What is funny?
Right! This time i’m writing a poem that’s not too serious
Ohh-kaay … gotta have some gravitas though
As a matter of fact it has. But we’re accessing that with a Lighter Tone - quirky
Ham-it-up-a-bit!
Yeah … don’t go berserk though. None of ya frightening stuff. Something that might work on the slam-circuit. Nudges the listener … not bludgeons …
Maaate! Nice Mind Lattice.Mind-lattice. I’m ..
Ohr wait: gotta make it rhyme …

NowBefore we explore further, First Law: - we let'scan’t getbe to:talking THE Essence: about:
As an art, what is: funny?
Uhm … if it makes someone laugh …?
Well, ya half right, it detects it, but what generates that laugh?
Koestler’s Act of Creation, says it’s Victimization (jokes at someone’s expense) &/or Bisociation (connecting two unrelated concepts).
I see, nice but non-funny, input.
I didn’t give the bisociation example yet …
My nephew is great on the piano. He can play anything
Wow… does he play by ear?
Noo … he uses his hands
Haha, but we heard X wittily say that in a party conversation, so, technically, (a) it’s not original (b) it’s not poetry
Agreed.

Yeah, how do they even do that sewerage testing?
That too, but i meant the anal swabs they implemented in China
Shit yeah, i’m wondering-
That’s too dark bro : not funny
IndeedAgreed - anal recognition technology is going too far.
