Every time we go to church, the pastor tells a joke before the sermon, this is one that he told last time we went:
A pair of identical twins have opposite personalities so that one is an optimist and the other is a pessimist. The father of the twins decides to conduct an experiment. So, on Christmas morning, he fills the pessimist's bedroom with toys and games, but he fills the optimists bedroom with horse manure. When the twins wake up on Christmas, he finds the pessimist crying in his room.
"Why are you crying" the father asks.
"Because now I have to read lots of intructions and get lots of batteries for these toys."
Then the father went to the optimists room and found him jumping for joy in the dung-filled bedroom.
"What are you so happy about," the father asked.
"There's go to be a pony around here somewhere!" the boy answered. And he went around looking for the pony.

I like it. It's a wonderful illustration of attitude making all the difference, a principle I try very hard to live by every day!

No.
I don't think it's a joke and I don't think it's supposed to be funny. It's supposed to illustrate a point about seeing the positive in a shitty situation.

Usually I find most jokes unfunny, but I liked this one, anything that makes fun of human perception I can appreciate.

It's a pretty good G-rated joke. I'll run it by my nieces and see what they think.
