Ha ha, looks like you have a knack for telling dry jokes. Maybe at the beginning, nobody thought it was funny, but after a while, they ''get" it, and then they think it's funny. I recommend that when you tell jokes, you give a few hints to help people understand. Won't everyone get your jokes that way? And that way, you can avoid uncomfortable silences when you tell jokes. You should know that some jokes are really hard to understand. I've seen a lot of funny Western stories that are all dry jokes like this. You really have to think them over before you get it.
