I feel like there is a joke here that I am missing.

After you've read the jokes in the book you will miss the feeling of laughing the first time you read them

[–] neatobuilds@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

hmm, then what book are you referring to?

[–] neatobuilds@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

whatever book they are talking about that has a whole compendium of humor, im not sure what exactly it is

The joke is that Germans love bureaucracy and design and don't do humor, as evidenced by some German chocolate my dad got at LAX that described itself as square and practical.

Ritter Sport? If so, don't forget the part where it described itself as good!

I had to look it up but that's totally it, lol

I also double checked by searching "schokolad quadratisch praktisch" and I can't believe it's a real tagline. Thank you so much Germany
