Funny Joke: 😡 Anger Lesson

A young girl, who was writing a paper for school, came to her father and asked…

“Dad, what is the difference between anger and exasperation?”

The father replied, “It is mostly a matter of degree.”

“Let me show you what I mean… “

With that, the father went to the telephone and dialed a number at random.

As a man answered the phone, he said, “Hello, is Melvin there?”

The man answered, “There is no one living here named Melvin… “

“Why don’t you learn to look up numbers before you dial them?”

“See,” said the father to his daughter, “That man was not a bit happy with our call.”

“He was probably very busy with something, and we annoyed him.”

“Now watch this… “

The father dialed the same number again.

“Hello, is Melvin there?” asked the father.

“Now look here!” came the heated reply.

“You just called this number, and I told you that there is no Melvin here!”

“You’ve got a lot of nerve calling again!”

The receiver was then slammed down hard.

The father turned to his daughter and said, “You see, that was anger.”

“Now I’ll show you what exasperation means… “

He dialed the same number again, and a violent voice roared, “HELLO!”

The father then calmly said…

“Hello, this is Melvin… “

“Have there been any calls for me?”
