“No dad, you don’t get it – a RAIN BOW”
“Yeah, I think it’s a typo in the joke”
“No, see – what kind of rainbow is impossible to tie? A RAIN BOW”
“Um, yeah it’s a typo – I think it’s maybe supposed to be ‘what kind of a bow’”
“Right! It’s a RAIN bow”
“Did mom put you up to this?”
“See – rainbows and RAIN BOWS!”
This happened like a week ago or something and I’m still laughing. At this point I’m not even sure it is a typo anymore. I keep reading it and thinking it has to be, but junior was SO convincing in his boiled-down RAIN BOWS explanation that I’m starting to wonder if it’s just me who doesn’t get it. I’m losing my edge.
It’s a typo, sort of like one stuck to the wall at the cabin.
