USA. This is humorous because he uses a huge comparison to make a simple cloth look grand. Through this humour, he criticises the world for ignoring a cloth worn by so many people in the 3rd world.

Irony in the White House Example: One strong irony is when he says, 

“Now try wearing one 

to a White House appointment - 

…………..

no way.” 

He shows that Cox’s Bazar accepts lungis, but the White House does not. This is funny but sad. It exposes the strange belief that a kilt in Scotland is allowed but a lungi is not. He calls this illogical. The humour points to the deeper problem of class and cultural prejudice in clothing.

Humour in Family Story: The poet also uses a humorous family event. His cousin in America wore a lungi at home, but the son hid it because he felt ashamed. So he says,

“Started hiding

the “ridiculous ethnic attire”.

This is a small and funny moment, yet it shows a big truth. Even inside a home, people judge clothes. The humour makes the shame look silly and shows how social pressure controls people.

Funny Uses of the Lungi: Kaiser Haq gives many funny ideas about the lungi. He says it can become a scarf. It can work as a dish rag. It can help make a kantha. He even says the lungi can be used to show the Theory of Everything, which he links to Stephen Hawking. This makes the reader smile. It mixes a simple village cloth with big world science. This mix of simple cloth and world-famous science is humorous. This humour shows how society loves foreign fashions but does not respect its own traditional/local clothes. 

Irony in Rebellion and Romance: The poet says, 

“I am a lungi activist.” 

This is humorous because activism is usually for big political issues. Here it is for a cloth. But this humour hides a serious meaning. Society thinks the lungi is low-class. By making lungi activism sound bold, he mocks those ideas. He also uses humour in the romantic line where a lungi can hold poems, drink, and a beloved. This light fun breaks the idea that a lungi is cheap or shameful.

Kaiser Haq uses humour and irony to show how foolish and unfair society can be about clothing. The jokes reveal real problems. Through funny stories, big comparisons, and playful images, he criticises the world for looking down on the lungi. His humour becomes a strong weapon against pride, class control, and cultural bias.
