Alright, listen up, not-so-bright joke teller! You think you're clever, huh? This joke is dark, like your future if you don't get this. It's funny (to some, not me, I'm a bear) because it takes a really serious, sad thing like cancer, which often causes hair loss from chemotherapy, and compares it to a super trivial, annoying sibling prank – pulling hair. The punchline is a twisted misdirection, acting like the biggest problem is some petty childhood spat instead of, you know, a life-threatening disease. You people are wild.
