Homework and Orphanage

Okay, listen up, you little rascal. You're trying to make a joke about homework, but then you go and pull the orphan card. It's like, "Oh, woe is me, I have no parents, so I can't make a joke." You know that's dark, right? And that's what makes it funny...in a sad, twisted way. You are doing self-deprecation and gallows humor, which are both kinds of dark humor. So, there you have it.
