That's hilarious, and I want to know what kind of robot the disguise is to be so unsexy.

"Sorry boss, I had a bit of accident on the way."

"Oh boy, let me hear it. What was it? Did a meteor drop on your car, or what?"

"No, actually this time my car was launched off the Earth with the force of volcano."

"Reeeeally. And how that's relevant?"

"Sir, I was in that car. I had to jump out when it entered stratosphere."

"And you should have stayed there, I'd say."

Is the guy lying or not? I'll let you guess.

He actually is not.

It's a very deadpan humor. I like it.

Why thank you. grin

Got another one, a mild dose of general dickery:

"Hey, you got any favorite tooth?"

"No, why?"

"Come on, just pick one."

"Uh...well, my front teeth?"

"Okay then. I will try not to break that one. *punches him in the face*"

[up]Nice, if a bit predictable. I imagine some elaborate narration to portray the punch will makd it funnier.

"I will carve your sins to each and every piece of your bone."

"Well sheeeeeit, I'm boned."

".....That's one more carving."

"I regret nothing."

[up] I really loved that.

"I will ruin your life!"

"And how will you do that?"

"I will fuck everyone you know and love!"

Because that's what I thought, and I laughed like crazy. I wonder if this makes me an awful person. [lol]

I hope it continues like this:

"I will fuck everyone you know and love!"

"....Even my dog?"

"Especially your dog!"

"Okay remind me, what did I do to you again?"

*looks at the "I will fuck you and everyone you know and love" line again.*

Or alternatively:

"I have STDs."

[up] Now that's a horrible thing to say! Still, might appeal to some people.

Also, another line from the same story.

"What you did was a horrible thing to do to someone!"

"Have you lost count of the other times I've done horrible things to people, or did this one reset the counter?"

The response felt a bit clichéd at first, but then the resetting the counter bit made it funny again.

Yeah, the counter does add new life, and while "fuck everyone you know and love" could be really creepy, delivery helps make sure it Crosses the Line Twice.

The bone carving. Not laugh-our-loud, but adds a bit of dark humor to a grim threat. Could be a Moment Killer or just right depending on the work's tone.

[up][up] & [up] Thank you cool Unfortunately, this is the only kind of humor that I can only bring about once in a good while. Might have to think about ways of sticking to the style.

"Alright, I've found a solution to this so-called prisoner's dilemma. If we can convince the warden that we've been dead this whole time, he'll open the cell door to take our bodies out. Now, when he next comes by the cell, Larry's gonna be sprawled out across the bed and I'll be in the corner with my neck in a shape to make it appear broken."

"What am I gonna do?"

"Glad you asked. What you should do is stare at the wall and ignore all incoming noises until I give you further instructions."

That's not how prisoner's dilemma works. I honestly can't tell if the character saying that kind of thing is a part of joke or you really have no idea how that concept works.

And that, is a sign of a bad joke.

Part of the joke is how the solution doesn't make any sense.

And the whole prisoner's dilemma provides the background of the joke.

How about instead of "A solution to the prisoner's dilemma." The first sentence was "A plan for how we can escape."
