what's the deal with "jopke"?


Recommended Posts

I've been on the forum for 6 months, and I still can't figure out what the hell it means. Can someone explain the origins?

An amusing or ludicrous incident or situation. With a p added. Informal. Something not to be taken seriously; a triviality: The accident was no joke. With a p added.
