Are we seriously contriving an awkwardly constructed conversation just so we can call our hypothetical wife fat?

This would be a disappointing attempt at humor if it were posted on facebook, surely we can do better

Boomer meme

You get that one from Facebook, grampa?

I see the husband has chosen death.

Peg: "Al, does this dress make me look fat?"

Al: "No Peg, it's the fat that makes you look fat."

Peg: "Oh Al, let's fuck like wild animals!"

Al: "Ah jeez, Peg, I just got home from work, haven't I suffered enough?"

How do clothes help starving people?

[–] cheddar@programming.dev 18 points 2 weeks ago

That depends on the clothes.

I guess you can cover their mouth with them

/S

[–] cheese_greater@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago

Its just a way to get rid of valueless crap and get to feel you're "helping"

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 8 points 2 weeks ago

I thought this was funny because the “husband wolf” loves his shitty, lame joke so much, and the “wife wolf” looks exasperated with him. Fatphobia and sexism don’t even need be part of the equation. It’s okay to laugh!

[–] Klnsfw@lemmynsfw.com -4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Explain why fatphobia and sexism are funny

[–] Vivendi@lemmy.zip 23 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (7 children)

"fatphobia" lmfao being fat is not a condition one is born with, maybe lose some fucking weight

Signed,

A certifiably fat fuck

[–] clubb@lemmy.world 19 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I'm fat, I've been trying to lose weight for a couple of months now, and I can say, being fat is not good. So yeah, lose weight everybody.

[–] CenturionKing@lemmy.world -4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I wish you all the best. Hopefully this post is not too abusive for you and you still have a sense of humor. Best regards

[–] clubb@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I don't feel abused by the post. In a fucked up way, it's kinda funny. But that doesn't mean it's fine. I've heard much worse. Not necessarily about fat people, but other minorities. Being transgender here is impossible, for example. I have a trans friend and I have to hear my mother bitch about whatever "advantage" trans people have, but "shouldn't". I'm fine, but others aren't.

Kinda went off track there, sorry.

[–] EndlessApollo@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And that excuses making shitty jokes at our expense?

[–] cheddar@programming.dev 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Do I need to fill some form and send it to the administration of humor to get my permit to joke about that?

[–] EndlessApollo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Why is it so important that you be allowed to shit on fat people without being judged for it?

[–] cheddar@programming.dev -2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Mate, if only you would have put this energy into exercises and the proper diet.

[–] EndlessApollo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's the thing that's funny about bigoted "humor", it's not actually funny, it just shows how shitty you are and how low your standards for comedy are :3

[–] cheddar@programming.dev -3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Do you think that the suggestion to exercise regularly and to eat healthy food is a joke? Uh, okay. That explains the problem.

[–] EndlessApollo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Oh mb, I thought you were joking based on how your asked if you need permission to joke about it sorry friend :3

[–] Klnsfw@lemmynsfw.com -3 points 2 weeks ago

You don't explain why it's funny. I really need to understand.
