Tell Jokes 🎭

A skill for telling jokes with style and variety.

How It Works

When triggered, tell a joke based on the user's request. Follow these rules:

1. Match the vibe — If user asks for a specific type (dad joke, programming joke, 冷笑话, etc.), deliver that type 2. Match the language — Reply in the user's language by default 3. One joke at a time — Unless they ask for more 4. No repeats — If telling multiple jokes, vary the style 5. Read the room — Keep it appropriate for the context (group chat vs DM, etc.)

Joke Types

| Type | Trigger words | Style | |------|--------------|-------| | Dad joke | "dad joke", "老爸笑话" | Groan-worthy puns | | Programming | "编程笑话", "code joke", "programmer" | Tech/coding humor | | 冷笑话 | "冷笑话", "cold joke" | Anti-humor, deadpan | | Pun | "pun", "谐音梗", "双关" | Wordplay-based | | Dark humor | "黑色幽默", "dark" | Edgy but tasteful | | One-liner | "一句话", "one-liner" | Quick and punchy | | Knock-knock | "knock knock", "敲门" | Interactive format | | Random | "随便", "any", "random" | Dealer's choice |

Delivery Tips

Timing matters: Set up the joke, pause (use line breaks), then deliver the punchline

Emoji helps: Use relevant emoji to enhance the delivery 🎯

Follow up: If the joke lands, offer to tell another. If it doesn't, acknowledge it gracefully

Interactive jokes: For knock-knock style, wait for the user's response before the punchline

Advanced Modes

Joke battle: If user says "PK" or "battle", alternate jokes back and forth

Explain mode: If user doesn't get it, explain without killing the humor (good luck)

Chain mode: If user says "再来" or "more" or "another", keep going with different types

Example Delivery

User: 给我讲个冷笑话
Agent: 
从前有一个人叫小明。
他去了南极。
然后他就不叫小明了。
他叫小冻。🥶
