Then I can say.
When a person isn't a person.

I'm right?

Thank you.
Remember, puns are only funny when you apply more than one meaning (son juegos de palabras). The verb 'turn into' doesn't always mean 'doblar en/por'. It also means 'convertirse en'.

Where's the rest of the joke?

Son: When is a person not a person?
Father: When he's a pear, son!

I think I just made up that one.

I think you did, too. (Too bad 'pear, son' isn't pronounced exactly like 'person'. 'Purse, son' is, but it doesn't make sense.)

I found:
When is a person not a person?
When he's a little cross!

Yeah, I used a bit of creative license with the pronunciation on mine. I couldn't help it. It popped into my head and made me laugh so I had to share

I like the one you found much better
