OK, try this:
Main Entry: 1hu?mor
Pronunciation: \ˈhy?-mər, ˈy?-\
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English humour, from Anglo-French umor, umour, from Medieval Latin & Latin; Medieval Latin humor, from Latin humor, umor moisture; akin to Old Norse vǫkr damp, Latin humēre to be moist, and perhaps to Greek hygros wet
Date: 14th century
1 a : a normal functioning bodily semifluid or fluid (as the blood or lymph) b : a secretion (as a hormone) that is an excitant of activity
2 a in medieval physiology : a fluid or juice of an animal or plant; specifically : one of the four fluids entering into the constitution of the body and determining by their relative proportions a person's health and temperament b : characteristic or habitual disposition or bent : temperament <of cheerful humor> c : an often temporary state of mind imposed especially by circumstances <was in no humor to listen> d : a sudden, unpredictable, or unreasoning inclination : whim <the uncertain humors of nature>
3 a : that quality which appeals to a sense of the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous b : the mental faculty of discovering, expressing, or appreciating the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous c : something that is or is designed to be comical or amusing
Note: In this joke, my neighbor's name actually is Bruce, not Bruth. Therefore pissy would sound like pithy. Get it? BTW, I have no such neighbor.

Guys, not to worry, Calvin is one of my favorite members here. In this instance, his joke went right over my poorly developed sense of humor. Later, when I showed his joke to my wife, she, of course, got it right away.
