A classic gag. Alice tells Bob some news, which he interprets in a wrong (and hilarious) way. She tries to explain and correct his mistake, but he applies his misinterpretation to the explanation as well. Bob is usually portrayed to be somewhat dim-witted, but a variant of this trope has him invoke it on purpose, just to screw with Alice. Related to Boke and Tsukkomi Routine, Chain of Corrections and Who's on First?. Examples of Sustained Misunderstanding include:
