Well, I didn't expect that answer from a woman in the streets, now what?

Be a good wingman and introduce her to your best lesbian friend?

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I only have two, and they're married to eachother.

[–] reinei@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

It never hurts to ask, just don't be stereotypical about it and maybe they'll at least become friends (thus increasing the chance they'll meet someone new to fulfill your 'promise'?)

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world -1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Woman

I can only apologize for disappointing you then.

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Was referring to the picture, Paul 💘

My apologies, I have an intelligence of 8 <3

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you hold your head sideways, the 8 becomes infinity! 💕

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

But then we get into an existential spiral about infinity and maybe I should stick with low intelligence lol

catcalling by only using phrases I would like to hear in prison like: "how would you like to get outta this shithole", "i can set you up with my lawyer" and "i can get you cigs, pornmagz, mail from the outside anything you just name it"

You want some vodka i distilled in my toilet?

[–] huquad@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 month ago

I prefer the toilet wine

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I came up with a super secret way of avoiding these situations by just avoiding women in public entirely.

[–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago

Or simply avoiding public spaces entitely.

How am I supposed to sell opioids then?

You think asking guys in prison, if they want to buy dope, would be something they don't want to hear?

[–] ToyDork@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not sure, but remember not to lace it with fentanyl unless you want your boss to break your kneecaps. The cartels don't like their suppliers killing customers to hide skimming.

Outrageous. How else am I going to make drugs addictive?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Pick Up Artistry reduced to just offering every girl you want to meet a cigarette.

[–] sumguyonline@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

If I'm wearing a kilt in prison, and the ugliest, grossest guy says "damn nice legs dude" imma strut my stuff. But there is a limit.

[–] maccentric@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

Not available in the US sadly, but the clips that are are very funny. Thanks for the tip, I’d never heard of this guy

[–] blubfisch@discuss.tchncs.de -2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'm torn on this. On the one hand, I agree with the satement of "don't do anythig you wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of". On the other hand, it's phrased as a joke that has the punchline of "haha, prison rape".

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

No it isn't. At no point is rape the punchline here or even mentioned. You are making a leap on your own accord and then blaming the comedian for your personal thoughts.

The joke comes from the situation where white men typically live in a world where people do not have power over them. In prison, that changes. The joke is not "haha rape". The joke is "The tension you are causing women constantly with your harassment you could compare to the tension in a prison where you are at the bottom of the totem pole."

You are the one who decided to take it that extra step, add rape and then blame the comedian. You'd have to actively make an argument to try and convince someone that the punchline is rape which, just in doing it, simply strengthens the point that it isn't.

[–] Miaou@jlai.lu 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What? This is obviously a prison rape joke. I'm not sure why you're making such mental gymnastics. It's OK to laugh about terrible things sometimes too.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Well I literally just explained how it isn't. If you want to call basic math "mental gymnastics" by all means.

Can we never joke about sensitive topics?

Isn't humor like, our primary coping mechanism for dealing with dark topics?

[–] fartknocker@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

If you need to joke about sensitive topics to get a reaction, consider the idea that you aren't actually funny

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Can we never joke about sensitive topics?

Sure. Won't stop you from getting heckled for bad taste.

There's a difference between joking about your own traumas and joking about other people's
