Why did Helen Keller's dog kill itself? I would too if all I heard was "daaaaaaah!"
Helen Keller's Dog
Categories
Explanation
Experiment
This joke plays on the stereotype of Helen Keller, who was blind and deaf. The humor comes from imagining how annoying it would be for her dog to only hear unintelligible sounds from her all the time, leading it to 'suicide'. It's a dark joke because it references a serious topic (suicide), but in a very absurd and unexpected way.
