A dentist noticed that his next patient, an elderly lady, was looking very nervous so he
decided to tell her a little joke as he put on his gloves.
“Do you know how they make these gloves?” he asked. “No, I don’t” she replied.
Well,” he spoofed, “there’s a building in China with a big tank of latex and workers of
all hand sizes walk up to the tank, dip in their hands, let them dry, then peel off the
gloves and throw them into boxes of the right size.”
She didn’t crack a smile. “Oh, well. I tried.” – he thought.
Five minutes later, during a delicate portion of the dental procedure, she burst out
laughing.
“What’s so funny?” he asked. “I was just picturing how are made!” – she said.
