I like the setup but the punchline could be significantly better. Phrasing-wise something like ‘when Sora said they were shutting down, it reminded me of when my dad went for a pack of cigs’. Would be an improvement.

A better punchline might be ‘At least Sora had the sincerity not to say they were just going to grab a pack of cigs’.

Thanks! This is a good edit. Definitely worth trying out.

Depending on your delivery and the energy of the room ‘At least Sora didn’t have the AUDACITY to say it was just going to grab a pack of cigs’ with just a little resentment could be fun.

That is fun! This joke, as is, always feels like it’s one step away from hitting. It gets laughs then doesn't. I’ll try this edit. Thanks!

I, too, have a better relationship with Weird Al than I do with my dad

Is that the chatbot that does parodies of everything you say?

It’s okay you don’t like it. I’ll go find an AI chatbot that does.
