It’s entirely necessary when I set myself up for that punchline. Was it a bit conspicuous when I mentioned a very specific body part they lack, and then made a joke?

@Gullible@sh.itjust.works

the set up and punchline worked, i think. maybe people are just sensitive to ribbing that involves mild insult about lack of education.

I thought it might have been the mild sexual angle? In any case, I’ve never had people quite this angery about a contraception joke

@Gullible@sh.itjust.works

thats part of the joke, which i found funny. exhausting how something witty devolved into this. dont understand where the anger is coming from.

I don’t know whether I’d call it witty, but I’m always game to look silly for fun.

Edit: on the internet. Doesn’t work out as well irl
