Amusement

Funny things happen in the Aggen household. They more likely than not happen either late at night or when we are incoherent in the morning. There is just something about being super tired that makes things more humorous than they actually are.

Our newest craze is telling jokes. The format goes along the lines of picking an object, starting off the joke with "(Said object) walks into a bar..." , and consists of making funny (or not so funny that become funny because they are not funny) puns about said object picked. For example, my best joke is "Two chickens walked into a bar. The young chicken starts talking to the old chicken. The older chicken, extremely confused, says 'Hey! I can't hear you! Beak up!'" And of course all of Alex's jokes rock because he was part of an improv group in high school and so he is so punny...

Second, which is where my talent (if you want to call it that?!) for funny comes in, is that Alex picks anything for me to act out. It could be an animal, an object, a situation, you name it. He then proceeds to ask me to act out the same thing, but this time as a dinosaur. He finds it hilarious and will often ask me repeatedly to do this many times throughout the week. It seems that the old "acting as a dinosaur" skills with my freshman roomate have finally served a purpose in life.

This pumpkin impersonating a dinosaur got nothin' on me. Seriously.

We also search for images that are cute and happen to be HILARIOUS. Our latest find was this...

Still. Peeing. My pants.

What a pair we make! At least I know that when we are old and crotchety we will still be able to make each other laugh with bad puns, dinosaur impersonations, and our shared appreciation for all things adorable.

Now THAT is true love.
