Shakespeare's Pencil

·
  • I own a pencil that used to be owned by William Shakespeare, but he chewed it a lot.

    Now I can't tell if it's 2B or not 2B.

    Listen up, genius! The joke is a play on words. "2B or not 2B" sounds like "to be or not to be," a famous line from William Shakespeare's play *Hamlet*. The pencil's lead grade, 2B, is confused because Shakespeare chewed on the pencil. You probably still don't get it, huh?
