Wednesday= Hump Day


Today is Wednesday, also humorously called "hump day", guess why?  Check the meaning of "hump" first: a rounded protuberance found on the back of a camel or other animal or as an abnormality on a person's back

Now watch the video and see if you can understand the humor in its punch line - find the transcript below the video, if you need it



Transcript "Hump Day Commercial": 

Camel: Uh-oh! Guess what day it is!

Camel: Guess what day it is! Huh...anybody?

Camel: Julie! Hey...guess what day it is! Ah come on, I know you can hear me.

Camel: Mike Mike Mike...Mike what day is it Mike? Ha ha! Leslie, guess what today is?

Leslie: It's Hump Day.

Camel: Whoot Whoot!

Jimmy: Ronny, how happy are folks who save hundreds of dollars switching to GEICO?

Ronny: I'd say happier than a camel on Wednesday.

Camel: HUMP DAAAAY!!!! YAY!!



Do you need an explanation of the commercial? Read it below:


Explanation:  Wednesday is also known as hump day because it is the middle of the working week, so many workers feel happy on Wednesday because it means the weekend is fast approaching. 
As for the ad, since this day is also called "hump" Wednesday and camels have humps, this camel is twice as happy.
