    Seriously though, you come across them in a dungeon and they all attack you. Like why aren’t they attacking each other?

      Okay, Junior, when a mummy skeleton and a daddy skeleton love each other very much, they rub their bones together and that’s how they make baby skeletons.

    No that’s the intestines monsters. Now they’ll fight each other. Skeletons will fight them for the guts too. Skeletons LOVE guts and fight anyone for them especially each other, but they are notoriously bad at keeping them, since they don’t have musculature or skin to hold the guts in. That’s why they don’t have the guts and the context for this joke.

    Neat fact - everyone has a skeleton inside them, well, unless you’re propelled entirely by magic like skeletons are
