Too funny

Funny.

Sounds like one of my ex-wives

Pretty misogynistic, to be honest. Suggestive of a very closed mind, and two people who should have talked before making a big decision.
Is this an over-reaction? Maybe, but made in the hope of making people think before going for a quick laugh.

Ahhh yes, here comes the "tolerant" people to label everyone they disagree with.

advocate,

+2 for virtue signaling!

I hope this one meets with your approval:

Remember the complain and stifle button.

My wife thought both were funny.

Well the first one seems to have escaped from the 1970s!

The second… shouldn't that be ‘hammer and sickle'?

As a living anachronism I find it funny and applicable to other topics such as, for example, the military miniature hobby.
On the other hand, I think Advocate is correct that people who wish to marry should have deep and far-ranging discourse before they say "I do."

Marry me, you marry my guns!

Maybe a small hand held cycle is what she meant?
We need lots and lots more guns.

It's a joke. I would be willing to bet the people in the picture are not married and are just models.

While I'm at; a certain coyote does not have access to the mail in catalog of the Acme company, if you shoot a duck in the face it's bill will not spin around, and when religious leaders walk into a bar they are just there to have a drink.

That said, I can certainly see how woke B.S. is trying to turn us all into humorless bores.

I think it's a play on words. As Col Durnford said, it's humor, a long-lost art. You have to have a sense of one to get it.

Occasionally, Amazon has a sale on humor.

Hilarious I shared…a lot. Nice one.

Cerdic29 Aug 2023 2:09 a.m. PST

Sorry Wolfhag, you're going to have to explain the ‘cycle/sickle' thing. I've definitely got a sense of humour so maybe it's something that doesn't translate over here…?

Wolfhag Supporting Member of TMP29 Aug 2023 5:32 a.m. PST

Cerdic,
So here is what I think it means. We all know it should be sickle but the "blonde" gets it wrong and says cycle. It could be a slant on the dumb blond joke but I could be wrong and did not write the meme. It could also be the guy/girl who wrote the meme got it wrong and does not know what a sickle is or their spell check converted it to cycle.

There is a fine line between comedy and denigration. It's just not the same for everyone.

I think this one is funny too:

You could change it to a woman saying, "I came home and told my husband I bought a new dress. He asked if I was selling one of my other dresses. LOL!

When my wife and I got married she agreed to marry my gun collection if I agreed to marry her naughty underwear collection. She now has her CCL with one of my guns. But unfortunately, none of her underwear fits me.

Wolfhag – I see, I think!

I thought it was just a mistake or misspelling. But I did wonder if it was some sort of bible reference – as you probably know we don't really do bible stuff on our heathen little island!

I saw a great t shirt at the range today "I'm a simple girl feed me bacon buy me guns".
