Someone burgled my house the other day. It was terrible.
They ripped all of the front and back pages of my dictionaries. Things went from bad to worse.
Listen up, buttercup! This joke is all about wordplay. See, the dude says his house was burgled, right? And the burglar ripped pages from his dictionaries. That means things went from "bad" to "worse"—get it? It's a play on words, like when you try to spell something and end up saying 'Oops, I did a fucky-wucky!'
