The Knight's tale is funny for a couple of reasons:
1. It shows the ridiculousness of lovelorn men who think that they are being romantic
2. The storyteller says that he will be quick in telling his tale many a time, yet can't resist loooong descriptions and boring speeches
3. Palamon is a 'fierce lion', yet at the end Theseus tells Emily that he is 'gentle'. Hmph. We have yet to see evidence of that.

I'll try reading one of the 'tales' each day and see how well I do!
