Introduction

Hey guys! Jester’s my name and jesting is my game.

Nope, not joking, jesting. I know it’s confusing. If you want jokes, go to a joker.

I’m actually not a joker, myself. That’s different.

I do get that a lot. No, we’re not friends. He’s in another trade. We have different unions.

Come on now, groaning that loudly is never polite.

I am a jester. Yes, that’s a thing.

I jest. Don’t worry! You’ll see how much fun it can be.

I’m afraid I can’t do that for you. You see, telling jokes is what a joker does. I’m a jester. A jester jests.

What does that mean? Let’s go ahead and look it up together. Here. The Oxford English Dictionary: “intr. To say something amusing or facetious; to make witty or humorous remarks; to joke.” Damn it! Trust me, there’s a distinction.

Why don’t I jest for you. We’ll enjoy this.

Give me one sec.

No, I can’t just tell you a joke. It’s not my specialty.

I certainly can’t do that either.

Sorry, I just won’t. That’s his line. Why don’t you get him next time?

Will you let me do my thing? I promise you’ll like it.

No. Seriously. I don’t say that.

Sigh.

Fine.

Why…Why so serious.
