Abstract: Continuing the legal research on jokes, this article outlines how jokes, satire and sarcasm – all forms of discrepancy between appearance and essence – may affect the validity of contracts; also, the research follows the civil legal implications of making jokes or pranks on someone focusing on the liability that stems from law. Jokes, satire and sarcasm are, most of the times, taken lightly but nevertheless, if certain conditions are met, they can produce legal consequences everyone must be aware of.
