I get, because by now we are expecting another “AAAAAAAA” from Tuskegee! It is like the knock-knock joke about the oranges and bananas. Is there a name for this kind of a joke? Like a “scad” or maybe a “burn”?
Well, since you asked I’ll tell you; I call it the “Slow Eastern Rub.” I know that’s quite a moniker for a little ol’ panel to carry around, but you wanted the truth, and Steve Junior believes in radical honesty.

NOTE: Don’t take this as criticism, but did you leave the middle panel blank on purpose? I am trying to learn more about humor!
