Whats a Joking Envelope?
The company takes its name from Sigmund Freud’s essay on comic theory, Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious.

In a larger sense, the term has come to express the social space in which we agree any idea has the potential for comedy—because sometimes a joke is just a joke.
