What is hummus?
Try to keep up...
edit: Shit,my bad. I replied on the wrong comment. Intended to comment the above on the reply that asked "what is hummus".
Whooosh
Seems like someone is learning how nested comment threads work..
Explanation: Q: What is Hamas A: It's a dip made from chickpeas Q: What is hummus? A: comment thread died due to circular referencing
The jokes did indeed continue, but in the correct format on a different comment thread. (Hamas, hummus, humus, Hummers, etc.)
They were trying to make the joke go in a single-definition circle, which destroys the joke's format. 🤷♂️
The joke continuing in its normal format proves your attestment to be wrong.
Nope you're wrong, in fact, the jokes continued on a different comment thread where users understood the format. No further jokes came from this comment thread where they commented "what is hummus".
I'm the one who wrote that comment and the joke train continued on from it up until everything was removed by the mods. 🤦♂️
Thanks for the explanation. I guess I owe you an apology, so I'm sorry. I seem to have no visibility over that part of the comment thread even though I participated in it.
