Text/Interview:
PW: “Why did the blonde get fired from the M&M Factory?”
PAR: “I don’t know. Why?”
PW: “She threw away all the Ws.”
Context:
PW loves blonde jokes because his wife is blonde. Any time he comes across one, he remembers it and tells it to his wife. Although she does not claim to find them funny, they always make her grin. PW does not recall when he came across this particular blonde joke. However, he remembers his wife’s reaction of pushing her palm into her face.
My Interpretation:
Jokes are a great way of building relationships between two parties. Nothing makes people warm up to you quite like making them laugh. PW uses blonde jokes as a way to strengthen his relationship with the woman he loves. We should all do the same.
