I always ask people to bring me ice cream from wherever they are going. “You’re having a wedding in the Virgin Islands? Bring me back some ice cream”

Not sure when o started doing that but everyone hates it lol

Ohhhh, okay. Cuase I was like “what!? Is that allowed” but I guess it is allowed. So it’s fine.

Problem solved everyone! We can go back home.

Wasteing citrus juice? In this economy? I can’t afford that.

Interesting. So you don’t have to admit it but if you accept the pardon you are essentially guilty.

“implicit admission of guilt” it says.

I would assume that means that media could say you are guilty and you couldn’t sue them for slander. Like you don’t have to say you are guilty but you cant claim you are innocent… well you can claim anything I guess but yeah people could safely call you guilty at that point.

Ford shouldn’t have pardoned Nixon.

I do think you have to admit to the crime tho. I could be wrong but accepting a pardon means you agree you were guilty I believe.

It’s me, obviously. Aeao. My name is on the comment bro! Of course it’s me. We’ve been talking for a while. You have the object permanence of a baby bro. Lol did you think it was going to be William shatner? No it’s me. Aeao. Obviously.

I somehow ended up on a Pokemon card collector Facebook group.

Scalpers are losing thier mind because the drop rates of rare cards are higher in the new sets and they made ALOT of sets.

So a lot of the scalpers are like “how could they do this to us! This is my livelihood “ and all the people who enjoy the game are like “well this is fucking amazing!”

They might mean lemmy communities. That’s how I read it anyway

Knock knock

Dude that’s the easiest one lol. A baby has no object permanence. Thier parent just disappeared in front of their eyes! They might never come back! Oh wait there they are again, thank god.

Aren’t trolls supposed to rile people up and start arguments? I had a pretty peaceful conversation with a couple people. There’s nothing here to even be angry about lol.

But okay

That’s a reference to a joke purely around frustration. That’s the pain in that joke. Extreme frustration and confusion.

You added the word eww for no reason then? A pizza in an oven having sentience…

Those two things make the joke funnier, why is it funnier that they are in an oven, why is it funnier that one pizza is disgusted with the other pizza? Why is the second pizza in this oven such a hypocrite

Or just the classic “oh you shocked me”

Bit I feel the pain on those jokes is again “oh I feel foolish for not expecting that”

There are different levels of pain lol. Just because we determined snake bites hurt worse than a paper cut it doesn’t mean paper cuts aren’t a version of pain. Same thing actually with the word “dark” you think nighttime is dark? Have you ever even been in a cave? That’s dark!

I’ve said nothing about the ethics of jokes. If anything you can take what I said to mean all jokes are in poor taste. That wouldn’t fit your narrative of what you think I’m saying tho so you ignored that lol the truth is I said nothing about ethics or what is appropriate.

I’m not parroting anyone. If I were I would have quoted him. More than one person can have a thought lol

Less puritanical societies… that remain nameless. Are we in a Puritanical society right now? Unless you’re going back to caveman times we’ve always been naked in private. Before that being naked wouldn’t have been funny. No one is laughing at boobs in societies that are shirtless. Same with farting. It wasn’t a joke until it was taboo.

Have you ever seen anyone rolling on the floor laughing just at a pun? I mean you mentioned me crying at knock knock jokes. Have you ever audible laughed at the talent of a pun or do you laugh because it’s stupid? Do you have any evidence of that being recent or just someone didn’t specifically write down the puns were stupid? Where is you’re source? Because we typically don’t create historic records of things that are considered “obvious”

It all depends on the joke lol

That’s why I said “tell me a joke that doesn’t involve pain”

You are telling me TYPES of jokes so I’m telling you the Types of pain the might revolve around.

I can’t give you specifics about a vague concept.

Which joke would you like to talk about? Otherwise youre pretty much just saying “I’m sure there are jokes that aren’t like that”

Which it’s fine if you want to belive that but it’s not really disproving what I said.

For the record I like puns too I share them with people too. To which they always respond “ughhhhhhh” which is the normal response to a pun.

Knock knock jokes: the pain is you have been made to look foolish. You did not expect such an obvious trick. “Boo who” why are you crying it’s just a joke.

Puns: how do people react to puns? With anger. People tell puns to get that reaction from people. The pain is how cringy the joke is.

Fart noises and penises. Embarrassment at a social taboo. Something private is now public and shame is the pain of the joke. Or if some purposely the pain is the vulgarity of the joke teller and the feeling of disgust it causes .

How do we as a society react to a pun? With hatred and anger lol. There’s the pain. People who enjoy telling puns also enjoy that reaction to them.

The pain is how cringey the joke is.

Absurd humor is my favorite! But alas the joke is how shocked you feel by the absurdity. You were not expecting what was said.

All humor is dark humor. Name a joke that doesn’t revolve around someone’s pain?

We laugh and cry for the same reasons. To cope with pain.

There’s a reason the best comedians are depressed.

“My mother never breast fed me, she always said she considered more of a friend” the late great Rodney dangerfield. His jokes are funny because no one loves him and he’s left as a husk emotionally. We laugh at that. One of the best comedians of all time and he’s funny because his life sucks.
