Waiting for some chud to respond with "Climate change... in her pants!"

Interesting preemptive strike there.

I'm no chud, but I'm afraid the thought occurred to me unbidden & it was honestly the only excuse I could come up with to hide behind while also not wasting the joke. Weird mixture of embarrassment & yet wanting to share the joke. I don't know what to say for myself...

In other words... it was projection.

Thus, your journey to the Dad Joke side begins...

Funny thing. I had a similar situation. I made the joke and the person it was intended for liked it, but other people heard and I had to admit that I overstepped. But live and comment section are different

Also lol, Lemmy is kinda past such humor lol. Such an enemy could not present itself for decades!

It's a civic duty for each of us to welcome and help reform refugees from those other places, NGL. 🧏🏼‍♂️

Wait, let me try one: I hope boobs manage to stop the sea level rise, but they'll always cause a rise in my pants. How did I do?

Displacement says otherwise —if they aren't handled with informed intention & positive attention. 🥰

Just say it mate, it may feel liberating.
