Well there’s no need to be sorry. I think I just still don’t get it. I very often don’t get jokes.
Oh that frog is cute!
Well, if the joke is that leap rhymes with sheep, why would you have an angry mob after you? I thought there was something insulting to Cornwall in the joke.
Oh. I thought it meant that the dogs and sheep got along nicely in Cornwall. But I couldn’t figure out why that would be funny. Little kids play leap frog don’t they? I didn’t know that it was insulting to be the one leapt over .
Actually I find it very entertaining to figure out why something is supposed to be funny. I’m laughing harder now that at most “funny” things I come across.
