Wow, good thing this company has a squeaky clean reputation otherwise or this might tarnish their reputation.

    Let me explain my comment because apparently it flew over your head: OC used sarcasm to highlight that they in fact have a horrible reputation. I made a joke to extend on OC's joke highlighting the fact that they might not even know what a reputation is, let alone reflect over their own.

    The best jokes need explaining.

    @VonReposti@feddit.dk is not to blame for the other person not understanding the joke, forcing them to explain it.

    You guys sure are concerned about this little sub thread. No one really cares. Just move on with your lives, it’s all good. We all make dumb comments and get downvotes from time to time. No one will remember this two days from now if you just let it go.

    A joke is like dissecting a frog. You understand it better but the frog dies in the process. A bad joke is still a bad joke, but the real joke is someone who is whooshing something because he just didn't get it.

    Oh, that's worse than just missing the joke. That's just one-upping and mistaking it for humour.

    What? No. That's validating the joke and respecting the foundation he laid. Comedians constantly reference each others jokes. Haven't you ever had a back and forth with a friend to make people laugh by building a joke on top of theirs?

    That requires telling a new joke, not just rehashing the same one with a materially insignificant difference.

    If you want new material, go to a comic show. On the internet you get varying degrees of jokes ranging from "comic material" to "I had 30 seconds to spare while shitting"

    I appreciate your effort to make a review of my "30 seconds to spare on the shitter" joke but you can save that the next time. Don't expect every word out of other people's mouth to be price winning material.
