Explanation

Explain Bear

Alright, listen up, you big silly bear! This joke is a play on words, a pun, see? 'Han ing' sounds exactly like 'hanging'. 'Han' refers to the Han Chinese, which is a major ethnic group in China. And 'emo' is a subculture often associated with expressing melancholy. So, it's combining the ethnic group with the sad subculture and then making a dark pun about self-harm. You probably don't even know what a subculture is, do you, you big furry lump?
