This sort of like the board cliches thread, but with a wider range. Basically, what lame, overused jokes make your skin crawl?
My nr. 1, still found all around the web in discussion threads, is “PETA? Sure, I belong to People Eating Tasty Animals! ;)”. Winky is an instrumental part.
Ha ha ha kerplunk. This went old roughly seven years ago, pretty soon after the “People Eating Tasty Animals” website went up. People STILL saying “People Eating Tasty Animals” and thinking they’re being witty should be forced on a vegan diet for the rest of their lives.
Nr. 2 - anything connected to meaning of life and 42. Please, people, can’t you respect Douglas Adams’ memory by refraining continuous molestation of the whole ‘42’ reference?
Nr. 3 - “Hey, that ‘Ironic’ song by Alanis doesn’t actually have anything ironic in it!” Gosh, noticed that all by yourself, did you? A singer becomes last winter’s snow and all that remains are people complaining that a song of hers titled ‘Ironic’ doesn’t actually have anything ironic in it… no, it isn’t ironic, really. At all.
And that “I’m a lesbian in a man’s body” that sparked that thread… yes, that’s horribly old, too.
Well Those jokes would be hilarious to someone who has never heard them before. Should have titled this thread “jokes that are old and not funny to me anymore because i’m so hip”.
It’s all perspective my son.
I’ve never heard number 1 & 2 on your list, so they are just beaming with hilarity to me!
Oh my GOD!! YOU’VE SMOKED POT BEFORE??!!! **What ** are the odds? It’s like a secret handshake! John Q. Law’s got NOTHIN’ on you!! You are the coolest being to ever break his bonds and rebel against the MAN!! Keep on truckin’, brother!!
My freshman year in college, the president of our GSA group suggested there should be a moratorium on sexual puns using the word “come/cum”. I am inclined to agree. I mean, people use the word “come” all the time, there’s just no challenge to it.
