wives…
“I heard my wife knock on the bathroom door, but then I remembered…. our bathroom doesn’t have a door”
I’m sorry, but the confusion of why your bathroom doesn’t have a door far outweighs any feelings of horror this might evoke.
can’t afford door.. the horror here is the realities of life
So what fuck was your wife knocking on
this dick
It’s not even 4 words???

I always wanted to know what to call it.
This is something I’ve been meaning to talk about, and I may do a full blog post at some point, but here’s a capsule version:
The Benign Violation Theory of humor, which is probably the best one out there, suggests that something is perceived as funny when it is simultaneously perceived as violating how the world “should” work and as benign. Something like the “gun” meme, for example, is funny because it violates our sense of how a joke should progress, and at the same time it’s harmless.
Racist/sexist/etc shock humor violates our sense of how the world work–in either a “that’s not true!” or “you’re not allowed to say that!” way–and therefore whether you find it funny is based on whether you find it benign, which is to say either you think it’s harmless or you don’t care about the people it harms. (This is the root of the punch up/kick down distinction–jokes that punch up are funnier than jokes that kick down because the people they target are less vulnerable and therefore less likely to experience harm.)
So yes, science agrees that if you think racist jokes are funny, the reason is that you don’t care about the feelings of the people the joke is about. There’s a word for that.
That time Babra Streisand painted one of Oprah’s microphones to match her outfit without asking Oprah. I love that abrupt cut to commercial!

I’m fairly certain the person who made the tweet was joking and this is actually spiegeleierkuchen (fried egg cake)! The “egg white” is a thick frosting made from yogurt/milk and cornstarch, while the “yolks” are tangerine halves. Here’s a recipe: https://www.sprinklebakes.com/2015/04/german-fried-egg-cake-spiegeleierkuchen.html?m=1
Fun to look at the notes and figure who has and who has not seen the explanation
