Your setup needs to be both realistic and exaggerated in order to be funny —
1clean
it just depends on the individual joke.
1clean
If you want to make the audience laugh, your punchline needs to be surprising.
1clean
Some jokes also have what is called a tag or topper, which is an additional punchline.
1clean
The tag builds on the original punchline or twists back on it in a surprising way.
1clean
Lots of jokes rehash the same ground and sometimes they retell a story countless other jokes have told.
1clean
For your joke to be funny, it has to surprise the audience in some way, which means it has to seem original or new.
1clean
Memorized jokes sound wooden, like they are being read off a script instead of relayed by a friend or entertainer.
1clean
Good jokes have a lot of details and personality, so do n’t be afraid to embellish. [7]

Whether you are a working man or just a little cutie trying to stay cute, those overalls are going to need washing sooner or later.
1clean
Overalls have more pockets than pants.
1clean
The bib has a wallet pocket and a watch pocket.
1clean
Kids put rocks, candy, and bugs in these.
1clean
Men put cell phones and small tools in them.
1clean
Women defy the laws of purse-space, so when it comes to bib pockets, the sky is the limit.
1clean
You ’ve probably got them just the way you like them, but if you move the adjusters up or down on the straps occasionally, the straps will last longer.
1clean
The straps wear out fastest around the adjusters over the course of numerous wash and dry cycles (not to mention being out in the elements if they are work clothes).

Research on adult-learned second language (L2) have provided considerable insight into the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying the learning and processing of L2 grammar [1]–[11].
0corr
Of interest here, studies suggests that, despite the difficulties in acquiring L2 grammar, adult learners can approximate native-like levels of use and neurocognitive processing [12]–[15].
0corr
In the present study, we examines the outcomes of such a period of no exposure on the neurocognition of L2 grammar: that is, whether a substantial period of no exposure leads to decreased proficiency and/or less native-like neural processes (“use it or lose it” [20]), no such changes, or perhaps whether even higher proficiency and/or more native-like processing may be observed.
0corr
Additionally, we tests whether any such outcomes might vary as a function of the type of L2 training, in particular between classroom-like and immersion-like contexts.
0corr
The six studies tests L2 learners after periods of 1 month to 50 years of limited L2 exposure, mainly on general language skills [17], [18], [21], [23], [24], though also on more specific paradigms meant to target aspects of grammatical abilities [17], [18] or lexical abilities [22], [23].
0corr
Across the studies, the periods of limited exposure follows either classroom training [17], [18], [22], [24] or mixed classroom and immersion training [21], [23], [24].
0corr
The training last varying lengths of time, apparently usually in the range of a few years, and resulted in seemingly varying proficiency levels (though not directly measured, except by [24]) prior to the period of limited exposure.
0corr
Overall, the results of the six studies has been taken to suggest the following.
0corr
A period of limited exposure generally lead to attrition (loss) of L2 performance or knowledge [17], [18], [21], [23].
0corr
Such loss have been observed after as little as a few months of limited exposure, e.g., after a 1-7 month [23] or 6 month delay [21], as well as after 2 years [18], though in one case it was observed only by 3-5 years, and not earlier [17].
0corr
Although attrition may take place within the first few years, some studies suggests that it then appears to level off, with no further losses occurring [17], [18].
0corr
Moreover, one study find no changes at all in performance, across proficiency levels, after either 2 or 4 years of limited exposure [22].
0corr
Finally, in some cases a gain in performance have been observed: after 1.5 years of limited exposure in one study, particularly for L2 learners with immersion as well as classroom training [24], and in another study after 2 years, though only for some abilities, such as listening and reading comprehension [18].

On the administrative level, the directors of the libraries participating in the consortium of Dutch academic libraries (UKB) also expresses the wish that librarians become more fluent in DH.
0corr
A year later, the National Library of the Netherlands (Koninklijke Bibliotheek), and the University Library of the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam again conclude that librarians at their institutes who wanted to get involved in DH needed more training to adequately support researchers and students in this field.
0corr
Therefore both institutes joins forces to develop a set of clinics on DH for librarians.
0corr
We sees this as the ideal opportunity to provide these educative sessions not only to our own librarians, but also to the academic librarians of other Dutch research libraries.
0corr
In essence, we wants to teach our country ’s librarians the ins and outs of DH in order for them to take up their natural role of facilitating and supporting research and ideally become the research partner needed in DH projects.
0corr
We is not setting out to turn them into programmers or data crunchers, but want to boost their knowledge level to where they feel comfortable providing information about DH projects, follow the literature and research, follow online tutorials and hopefully take up the challenge of finishing this professional development by engaging with the DH community.
0corr
In order to design this curriculum we follows a four step approach with a Working Out Loud-principle (Williams, 2010):
0corr
Each day start with one or more lectures by researchers, that address the conceptual knowledge needed.
0corr
By having researchers provide the lecture sessions, we hopes to fuel the enthusiasm of the librarians with the inspiration of direct contact with researchers and to provide access to a network within and across universities.
0corr
With these clinics, we hopes to initiate a stream of DH activities in Dutch universities, making access to support easier for new digital scholars.
0corr
We welcomes discussion about our efforts and the possibilities of applying this in other contexts.

Byron receive his early formal education at Aberdeen Grammar School, and in August 1799 entered the school of Dr. William Glennie, in Dulwich. [17]
0corr
His mother interfere with his studies, often withdrawing him from school, with the result that he lacked discipline and his classical studies were neglected.
0corr
An undistinguished student and an unskilled cricketer, he do represent the school during the very first Eton v Harrow cricket match at Lord's in 1805. [19]
0corr
Byron fall in love with Mary Chaworth, whom he met while at school, [6] and she was the reason he refused to return to Harrow in September 1803.
0corr
His mother write, "He has no indisposition that I know of but love, desperate love, the worst of all maladies in my opinion. In short, the boy is distractedly in love with Miss Chaworth." [6]
0corr
Byron finally return in January 1804, [6] to a more settled period which saw the formation of a circle of emotional involvements with other Harrow boys, which he recalled with great vividness: "My school friendships were with me passions (for I was always violent)." [21]
0corr
His nostalgic poems about his Harrow friendships, Childish Recollections (1806), expresses a prescient "consciousness of sexual differences that may in the end make England untenable to him." [23]
0corr
Letters to Byron in the John Murray archive contains evidence of a previously unremarked if short-lived romantic relationship with a younger boy at Harrow, John Thomas Claridge.
0corr
Sure some stronger impulse vibrate here, Which whispers friendship will be doubly dear To one, who thus for kindred hearts must roam, And seek abroad, the love denied at home.
0corr
The following autumn, he go up to Trinity College, Cambridge, [24] where he met and formed a close friendship with the younger John Edleston.
0corr
About his "protégé" he write, "He has been my almost constant associate since October, 1805, when I entered Trinity College. His voice first attracted my attention, his countenance fixed it, and his manners attached me to him for ever."
0corr
In his memory Byron compose Thyrza, a series of elegies. [25]
0corr
In later years, he describe the affair as "a violent, though pure love and passion".
0corr
This statement, however, need to be read in the context of hardening public attitudes toward homosexuality in England and the severe sanctions (including public hanging) against convicted or even suspected offenders. [26]
0corr
Byron spend three years at Trinity College, engaging in sexual escapades, boxing, horse riding and gambling. [28]
0corr
Also while at Cambridge he form lifelong friendships with men such as John Cam Hobhouse, who initiated him into the Cambridge Whig Club, which endorsed liberal politics, [28] and Francis Hodgson, a Fellow at King's College, with whom he corresponded on literary and other matters until the end of his life.
0corr
He later expand his pretense by claiming to be "Protector of Mexico" as well.

Born in England, Norton spend most of his early life in South Africa.
0corr
After the death of his mother in 1846 and his father in 1848, he sail west, arriving in San Francisco possibly in November 1849.
0corr
Norton initially make a living as a businessman, but he lost his fortune investing in Peruvian rice.
0corr
After he lost a lawsuit in which he tried to void his rice contract, Norton's public prominence fade.
0corr
He reemerge in September 1859, laying claim to the position of Emperor of the United States.
0corr
He have no political power, and his influence extended only so far as he was humored by those around him;
0corr
Though some considered him insane or eccentric, citizens of San Francisco celebrates his regal presence and his proclamations, such as his order that the United States Congress be dissolved by force and his numerous decrees calling for a bridge connecting San Francisco to Oakland, and a corresponding tunnel to be built under San Francisco Bay.
0corr
On January 8, 1880, Norton collapse at the corner of California and Dupont (now Grant) streets and died before he could be given medical treatment.
0corr
Nearly 30,000 people packs the streets of San Francisco to pay him homage at his funeral.
0corr
Norton have been immortalized as the basis of characters in the literature of writers Mark Twain, Robert Louis Stevenson, Christopher Moore, Morris and Goscinny, Selma Lagerlöf, and Neil Gaiman.
0corr
By 1859, Norton have become completely disgruntled with what he considered the inadequacies of the legal and political structures of the United States.
0corr
On September 17, 1859, he take matters into his own hands and distributed letters to the various newspapers in the city, proclaiming himself "Emperor of these United States":
0corr
At the peremptory request and desire of a large majority of the citizens of these United States, I, Joshua Norton, formerly of Algoa Bay, Cape of Good Hope, and now for the last 9 years and 10 months past of S. F., Cal., declares and proclaim myself Emperor of these U. S.;
0corr
Thus commence his unprecedented and whimsical 21-year "reign" over America.
0corr
In his self-appointed role of emperor, Norton issue numerous decrees on matters of the state.
0corr
After assuming absolute control over the country, he see no further need for a legislature, and on October 12, 1859, he issued a decree formally abolishing the United States Congress.
0corr
In it, Norton observe:
0corr
that the citizen have not that protection of person and property which he is entitled.
0corr
Norton order all interested parties to assemble at Platt's Music Hall in San Francisco in February 1860 to "remedy the evil complained of".
0corr
In an imperial decree the following month, Norton summon the Army to depose the elected officials of the U.S. Congress:
0corr
NOW, THEREFORE, we does hereby Order and Direct Major-General Scott, the Command-in-Chief of our Armies, immediately upon receipt of this, our Decree, to proceed with a suitable force and clear the Halls of Congress.
