Joke overheard

This one’s probably an old one! During the counseling class last week, there were jokes aplenty with the very lively and animated instructor we were having. One of those jokes that came up was as follows. Apologies to those of us who’re not Chinese as the humor might be lost in translation.:)

A bao (包, steam filled bun) and a mantou (馒头, steamed bun without fillings) went to see a sad show.

During the show, the bao ended up crying but the mantou didn’t. Why not?

Answer: because the mantou had no feelings.

Ok; lame joke! I thought I’ll jot it down on our blog because I haven’t heard of this one before until the class.:)
