Not to be a party pooper but threads with Yo Momma jokes have been closed before, in the pit even. [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=1762015#post1762015](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=1762015#post1762015) Just thought I’d share that with you. ---

Easy? So how you doin? I can’t flirt IRL what makes me think I can do any better in cyberspace. I like “yo mama” lines. In an e-mail Lynn told me that they tend to get out of hand. OK by me. ---

Ok, just make them GOH (Generic Object of Humor) jokes. As in, GOH’s so stupid, when the weatherman said it would be chilly outside, GOH went out with a bowl and a spoon. ---

If he did that, he wouldn’t get his insult in. Which is his point anyway. ---

Which is his point anyway. \*\* Right, but when you’re telling the joke to your friends or co-workers, you modify it as necessary to suit your audience. Sort of like a joke template. For example, I’ve personally heard these two told about liberals, conservatives, lawyers, teachers, policemen, hippies, gays, blacks, jews, protestants and catholics: What do you need when you’ve got a GOH up to its neck in cement? More cement. What do you need when you’ve got 10 GOHs up to their necks in cement? A bowling ball. With some minor adjustments, you can offend anybody you want! ---

There’s also the fact that I’m making fun of the rash of “Appreciation” thread titles. A thread titled “GOH Depreciation Thread” would not have quite the same sting. Having never crossed the line before, I’m mortified to suddenly find how far back the line actually is, and how arbitrarily drawn. But if there really is such a rule, I’m prepared to abide. ---

First off, I have to know whether you’re using the straight-line or double-declining method. BTW, what’s yo mama’s salvage value? ---

Yo Mama checking in, no really. It’s my pimp name on a pimp wars site and my slogan was “Yo Mama is so phat that when she comes to your house she’ll stomp that motherf\*cker flat”. ---

The blue book value of yo momma goes up and down depending on how many packs of smokes she’s got rolled up in her sleeve. **Mermaid** , that’s a pretty cool pimp name.
