Setup

Why did the balikbayan box go to therapy?

Punchline

Because it had too much baggage — and every item inside came with a three-page story from Lola about how she needs more chocolates next time.


Commentary: The balikbayan box is not just a shipping container. It is a love letter. A guilt trip. A cargo manifest of sacrifice. And somehow there is never enough corned beef.


Think you can do better? Send us your balikbayan box joke. We will feature the best ones — and judge the worst ones with deep affection.
