I don’t mind fake posts when they at least try.
i also like them when they tee up good jokes in the comments.
the best comedians don't take every punchline. sometimes they set them up for other folk to tell the punchline to the joke, and it's funnier that way. the role is called The Straight Man (and as an absurdist NB Bi dude it's really amusing to play The Straight Man)
I was implying whoever made this didn’t really try. So it kind of annoyed me.
oh no worries. it's a low hanging fruit for sure, but some low-hanging-fruit jokes are still fun to tell. when you're still learning comedy, that's where you start, and those of us who are more experienced still laugh just as hard to encourage.
my favorite joke is (and it suffers from text, the real joke is in the delivery and timing):
it's a terrible joke and i love it no one can tell me it's bad because all you're exposing is your underappreciation of wordplay :3
