Emo Kid in a Tree

Alright listen up, smarty pants! This joke is about an "emo kid," which is a silly stereotype of a teen who's always sad and mopey. The joke asks how to get one out of a tree, and the answer is to cut the rope. Why is that funny? Because it implies the emo kid is trying to hang themselves from the tree, which is dark humor! If you were smart like me, you'd have figured it out. Based.
