Reply to comment by Enderbraska_CZ in I have just found out that my boss has been telling people that I hallucinate by ArcTan_Pete

"Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog. You understand it better, but the frog dies in the process"

"A little bird told me" Is a common expression in the UK (and, I think, in Canada and the USA). It means that someone has told you something - usually something confidential/that you were not supposed to know - and you chose to keep their identity a secret.

Of course, if you really thought that a real 'little bird' was talking to you, and giving you confidential information, then it could be a sign that you were hallucinating

It is a pun - a play on words or phrases that have may have two, or more, different meaning.

as it is a pun, then - by definition - it is a joke.

If you dont like it, or - more likely - if you dont understand it, then you are free to pass it by without making a comment.

I admit, I have done so with many jokes on this sub. But - something you may learn when you grow up - not everything in life, is made for your personal enjoyment
