A paraprosdokian is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence is unexpected and often funny. For example: A man knocked on my door and asked for a small donation towards the local swimming pool, so I gave him a glass of water.
If you can smile when things go wrong, you have decided who you will blame.
My wife and I were happy for twenty years, then we met.
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
From 5:30am only two people found this funny.
