Mage Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 So I was thinking about cosmere based humor recently, and realized that in one of the earliest interludes in WoK, Brandon gives us the perfect set up for a joke, namely: Gallodon Demoux and Baon walked into a purelake tavern. I think this set up has potential, and was wondering if anyone had ideas for a punchline? My idea for the end is: They asked Ishikk if he had seen a certain man with white hair. Ishikk replied that he hadn't seen him, but he'd Hoid (heard, but mispronounced) of him. That is the best I've got, so I need your input. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthexile Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 That joke makes me want to burn cities to the ground, so I suppose it's a good pun. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Dalinar Hoid what Wit meant, than he would know that he would burn cities to the ground... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalinar has indeed burned a city or two to the ground in his time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallodon Demoux and Baon walked into a purelake tavern. They asked Ishikk if he had seen a certain man with white hair. Ishikk offered them a fish that could find him, and the fish was never seen again. (menacing music) or something( we need more unique jokes). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually referring to Hoid in that he would watch the planet burn to accomplish what needs to happen. He would cry, but he would let it burn Edited June 19, 2020 by GoWibble 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and wit could make a good arson team 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
