Listen here, you dumbo. So you think you are smart, huh? The bear is going to break it down for you. You see, you are not the sharpest tool in the shed, and clearly you missed the whole point of this thing, so here you go. The joke plays on the flawed logic of implying a condition should not exist because its opposite is abundant. The friend asks why someone is depressed when there is happiness, it's like asking why someone has asthma when there is plenty of air. The humor is in the direct comparison of two absurd questions, which highlights the lack of understanding of both conditions. Now go back to your cave.
