Each chapter reveals howthese shared, common activities and places each of us frequently encounter every day can besources of humor. After initially observing each photo, ask yourself, “What do I physicallysee and what is its intended purpose or meaning?” Then, after more careful examination,ask yourself, “How else can this be interpreted?” Look for anything and everything that isunusual, strange, or out of the ordinary, such as misspellings, inconsistencies, ambiguities, andcontradictions.
