A joke is a display of humor that uses words within a specific and well-defined narrative structure to make people laugh and is usually not meant literally. It usually takes the form of a story, often with dialogue, and ends in a punch line, thereby revealing the humorous element of the story; This can be done using a pun or other types of word play, irony or sarcasm, logical inconsistency, hyperbole, or other means.
Stand-up comics, comedians and slapstick work with comic timing and rhythm in their performances, and may rely on actions as well as verbal punchlines to evoke laughter. This distinction is formulated in the popular saying "A comedian says funny things; a comedian says funny things".
