Yeah, I get that. My confusion steams from the use of “sleepwalking” as opposed to another word choice like “traveling.” In my mind it creates an expectation that being asleep will be a component of the pun-chline that I’m not seeing. This makes the joke feel half-finished to me. Am I missing something, or am I just overthinking it?
