Stop slandering Orangutans. That’s a candid shot of a fine gentleman.

Comparing them to MTG is a horrific action.

Isn't this a howler monkey? Point still stand though.

You’re probably right. I don’t know my monkeys very well.

Clearly, for the orangutan is an ape!🤦

/s, just teasing, although it IS an ape, just like my mother.

the orangutan is one of the big human like face.

Like your mother and every other human in existence.

I always thought explaining the joke made it so much better.

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago

I find it's more effective if you really lean into it. Break the joke down into parts, then explain each part, then explain how it all works together. It's easily five times funnier.

Joking aside, this is exactly what I do when people make tasteless, offensive jokes or when I want someone to go away.
