Can you explain this joke please? A bear đŸ» walks into a bar, and he says to the bartender : -Hi, mate, can I have a whiskey and


. 

 -Coke please? -yes, of course, but why the long pause? And the bear looks down and says: -I don’t know, I was born with them! I guess, maybe the word “pause” has a similar sound word?)😅

It’s a “play on words”. The pronuncian of the word “pause” is the same as the pronunciation of the word “paws”, and bears have paws đŸŸ And since he’s a bear he is large, so he has long paws (“long pause”). 🌈 Nicky

Ha, yes precisely. It is a play on how “pause” and “paws” sound the same.
