Cubicle Conundrum - Day 33

N: Do you want to hear something funny?

Q: Funny for you at my expense, or funny in general?

N: Definitely funny in general.

Q: Okay then.



N: I’m quoting a news site here – ‘Five terrorists apprehended with the intentions of starting a boy-band and hoping to one day blow up a live concert. This concert would be staged after the process of attracting enough serious listeners with their boyish looks and charm was completed.”. Isn’t that hilarious? Some plan huh?



Q: That’s not funny. Terrorism is a major issue these days. You shouldn’t use it to find humor. You shouldn’t trivialize global issues.



N: The terrorism wasn’t the funny part.

Q: Oh?

N: It was the bit where they expected SERIOUS listeners by playing pop music.



Q: What kind of lame joke is that? Besides, I listen to pop music.

N: Yeah.



Q: ….

N: ….



Q: Oh.
