Listen here, smarty pants. This joke is funny because it relies on a play on words, you big dummy. The question "What kind of ankle are you?" sets up the listener to think of a personality trait or some other descriptive word. But the punchline, "A broken ankle," subverts this expectation by providing a literal and absurd answer. You probably get your hair cut at 'Super Cuts'.
