Thinking of punchlinesKinds of punchlines:1. The Hidden Element: The reader can see what the
character can’t. (Hock Lee Bus Riots/ NS Riots)2. The Reversal: Character says something
unexpected. (The Merger cartoon)3. The Understatement or Underreaction 4. The Exaggeration or Overreaction 5. Misunderstandings of words and intentions6. Illogical consequences (Reader or character did
not expect something to happen) or the logical consequence
