Thanks, I'm dumb and thought she murdered his friend.
I'm trans and thought she murdered his friend too lmao
I'm smart and I though she murdered his friend
I'm drunk and I though she murdered his friend
Smart and drunk are basically synonyms
Does it say something about me that I got the joke immediately?
Me too. Do you happen to be an engineer as well?
Erm... no, that can't be it...
Were you dropped on you head as a child like me… repeatedly?
Explains why you became an engineer -Sheldon Cooper
Maybe once or twice, but I don't think that's why I got the joke without reading an explanation...
I don't know if I'm smart or not, but I think part of the joke is that the husband doesn't recognize that his now-wife is his former best friend, and that unlikely circumstance kept me from understanding the joke even though I read the explanation. (Not the explanation in this thread but the more ambiguous one in the other thread.)
Truth is the three of them bought a farm with six pigs and then ate the friend.
I just had no idea what the joke was until I saw the trans comments. I was busy thinking, like, "That's really hard."
I thought she married a murderer.
Not so dumb, given this is probably a screengrab from "you", and this character would definitely have murdered his friend
I think that's the context that was messing everyone up lol
This would also be a funny interpretation.
I thought this was some boomer shit about spouses not listening to each other?
So many different interpretations in the comments.
I thought it was just that he didn't need a significant other because he was so close with his friend haha
Oh! Good one!
That it's open to interpretation is part of the fun. I don't know what the person who made it intended. I didn't even recognize from what show it was.
