Joke "treat"

Treating guests is a classic joke among Han people. The following are common versions:

One day, a man invited his good friends and some people he usually knew but didn't know very well. At the dinner table, he talked and laughed with his good friends, but he was a little cold to strangers.

At this time, someone found this problem and asked him, "Why don't you talk to people you don't know very well?"

He replied, "I don't know them. Why should I talk to them? "

The man said, "You don't know them, so who are they?"

He replied, "I don't know. They may be my friends' guests or my own guests. "

The humor of this joke is that although the host of the dinner party is different from the unfamiliar person, in his logic, there is no absolute boundary between the two kinds of people. His answer makes people feel that his logic is clever and makes people laugh.
