The funniest article

I think 'the' is the funniest article. What isn't made funnier by referring to it as a specific instance or item when that's completely unnecessary.

For example, in reference to a particular location. Say the bar is called, "Novaks." There's no particular call for saying 'the' Novaks, but it's a lot funnier: What are you doing tonight? Oh, we're going to the Novaks even though the crowd is so rude.

Specifying 'the' just brings out any particularly strong feelings you may have about a person, place, or thing without having to voice them definitively.

Try out the 'the' and see how it can work for you!
