While visiting the old folks home, little Charlie asks his grandmother, “Grandma, what
is ‘dark humor’?”
His grandma replies, “Watch, I’ll show you.” She points at a man in a wheelchair, and
says, “See that man over there? Go and ask him to stand up.”
Charlie gasps. “But grandma…!”
His grandma then points at a man with no arms. “And see him? Tell him to clap his
hands! Hah!”
Charlie is visibly disgusted. “Grandma!”
His grandma then points at a woman with no teeth, and laughs, “Oh! Oh! And see her?
Offer her some chewing gum!”
Finally, Charlie has had enough, and bursts out, “But grandma! I’m blind!”
His grandma erupts into a fit of laughter. “Exactly!”
