What you’re looking at

This page contains four humor pieces with no illustrations: 1. **"Greasy Spoon" English**: A joke about a cheap diner where waiters shout back exaggerated or nonsensical responses to customers' orders (beans becoming "a thousand on a plate," hash becoming "another sport"). The humor mocks both working-class diner culture and the gap between what customers say and what waiters hear or choose to hear. 2. **Gus's Feed Store Joke**: A brief gag about mistaking a chicken feed store for a restaurant selling chicken dinners. 3. **"Speaking of Endurance"**: A brief domestic joke about a couple rushing through romance before her father arrives home. 4. **"Olaf's Mother Goose Rhyme"**: A parody verse mocking Scandinavian immigrants through comedic exaggeration. 5. **"Love's Little Lapses"**: A brief joke about a woman forgetting her ex-boyfriend's name after four years.
