    Why don’t churches allow WiFi?

    Tap for spoiler

    They don’t want to compete with an invisible power that actually does something

    But I like dark humour.

    Every day hundreds of sex offenders go to the police station, then they clock in.

    Terrible shame that assassination attempt on Trump. Just a little to the right and we would be having a party right now.

      I find it amazing as a country with the right to bear arms, you’re all such a shit shot. When it comes to Ronald.

      So he hadn’t announced Vance as his VP pick… What would have happened if justice had been served that day. Would Kamala Harris run unopposed?

        Would Kamala Harris run unopposed?

        Definitely not. The convention would still have happened and a candidate would have been nominated to run. The timeline and internal party politics would have been drastically altered, though.

        Even if the Repubs didn’t nominate someone, there were still third parties running that would have probably just filled the void.

    People get mad when I decide to act on “I choose the lives if Iranian civilians over the lives of US soldiers”. There’s no joke there but I don’t see people joking about civilians getting to live another day because troops moral is so low

      I’m not sure internally I ever moved past my edgy humor highschool self who made immature, sarcastic, and super past the line jokes

      I’m also a damn dirty commie so yeah I’d laugh at it

        I still enjoy many dark jokes internally too, but I definitely don’t share them with as wide an audience as I used to- I’ll make a joke about priests molesting kids to my husband, close friends, or immediate family, but I know that I can’t generally know who has been impacted by that, and I’m not trying to fuck up someone’s day with a flip joke.

        I also don’t enjoy dead baby jokes nearly as much as I used to, because I’ve now known several people who’ve had a late miscarriage or stillbirth, or whose children died, and I can’t separate the punchline from the image of their faces while grieving or talking about the loss. I still like dark humor about things that directly impacted me, but for things that only happened to loved ones, I can’t see the humor anymore.

    Whenever you make jokes about the military you always start with the marine core. Why? Beca by the time you’re done they’ve understood the first line.

    Seamus Kennedy - Armed Forces Tribute

    Love this ‘song’. Full of armed services jokes. What does MARINE stand for? Muscles Are Required Intelligence Not Essential.

      TBF I always enjoyed the USMC’s humor towards themselves. I don’t think anyone burns them harder they do and they go way low, like having drill chants about disintegrating marriages and Jody fucking their wives

    Make a joke about Trump and suddenly they want to fist-fight you.

      When Trump asks “What is a woman?” It has nothing to do with transpeople, he’s just mistaken 12 for the age of consent again.

      😂 No suddenly they want to talk a lot about fist fighting and how they can’t because they’d probably kill you and forced laugh their way back to their safe space

      I’m about to say something so blatantly antisemitic that it qualifies me to be Head of the SS.

      It is wrong to murder children.

      It might be low hanging fruit but I’m not above it. Though there is a Catholic guy around who hasn’t learned to not provoke the hornet nest yet and I try to be nice to him

        the explanation for why my god allows suffering is my god is distracted trying to find their lost teapot. it makes tea just the way they like it. and yes, they are imaginary but that doesn’t make them any less shut uppy.
