So, one of the inherent parts of the definition of a joke is that it's a humorous statement, something said to provoke amusement.
Therefore, if it's not funny, it cannot be designated a joke. A funny not-funny statement is as non-existent as a vegetarian beefsteak or a glass of ice cold dry water.
Discuss. Remember to show your work. Use both sides of the paper if neccessary.
