Jokes Kids Like: In Other Words, Stupid JokesChistes que les gustan a los niños: En otras palabras, chistes blancos

I‘ll admit it.  I’m tired, and I’m feeling lazy.  That means it’s time to reach back into my head and dust off some old, stupid jokes.  I also have the dirty variety of jokes, but since this is a parenting blog I’ll try to keep it clean.  I wouldn’t be me though if I didn’t also tell you something interesting about humor.  Researchers in the Netherlands say that humor is the perfect remedy for depression.  The brains (BRAINNNNS!) of depressed people are fixated on depressing thoughts.  What these brains need is a good, complex joke.  Jokes work by misdirecting expectations.  They work because we’re surprised by the punch line.  Depressed people can frequently snap out of their funk by redirecting their brainpower into understanding a joke.  The more depressed a person is the more complex the joke needs to be to overcome it.  Interesting, don’t you think?

Lo voy a admitir.  Estoy cansado, y me siento flojo.  Eso significa que es tiempo de buscar en mi cerebro y desempolvar algunos viejos chistes bobos.  También tengo chistes de la variedad estúpida y pícara, pero como este es un blog para padres voy a tratar de mantener los chistes blancos.  Pero no sería yo mismo si no tratara también de contarte algo interesante acerca del humor.  Investigadores en los Países Bajos dicen que el humor es el remedio ideal para la depresión.  El cerebro (¡CEREBROOOOOOOOO!) de las personas deprimidas está fijado en cosas deprimentes.  Lo que estos cerebros necesitan es un buen chiste complicado.  Los chistes funcionan desviando las expectativas.  Funcionan porque sorprenden con la frase final.  Las personas deprimidas pueden salir de su depresión al dirigir su poder mental en tratar de entender un chiste.  Entre más deprimida esté una persona más complejo necesita ser el chiste para ayudar a salir de la depresión.  Es interesante, ¿no lo crees?  

    

Nota: Desafortunadamente los chistes son algo que no se puede traducir fielmente, estos requieren del juego de palabras en el idioma en que son creados y el sentido del humor de la gente que los escucha.  Así que los siguientes chistes se mantuvieron en inglés para mantener su integridad y sentido del humor.
