:oops:

Thanks! I still didn't get it, but someone PM'd me with a more . . . explicit . . . explanation. Really, I had not expected that at all. A flood, perhaps, but not . . . that.

Of course, it could mean that the Texan was really really short... um... in height... :D

While walking through Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, a man came upon another man hugging a tree with his ear firmly against the tree.

Seeing this, he inquired, 'Just out of curiosity, what the heck are you doing?'
'I'm listening to the music of the tree,' the other man replied. 'You've gotta be kiddin'me.' 'No, would you like to give it a try?'

Understandably curious, the man says, 'Well, OK...' So he wrapped his arms around the tree & pressed his ear up against it. With this, the other guy slapped a pair of handcuffs on him, took his wallet, jewelry, car keys, then stripped him naked and left.

Two hours later another nature lover strolled by, saw this guy handcuffed to the tree stark naked, and asked, 'What the heck happened to you?' He told the guy the whole terrible story about how he got there.

When he finished telling his story, the other guy shook his head in sympathy, walked around behind him, kissed him gently behind the ear and said, 'This just ain't gonna be your day, cupcake...

Personally, I find that one decidedly less than funny.

Only someone who has never been raped will find rape humorous.

How do you know I've never been raped? You make some pretty large assumptions.

I've never been raped but I thoroughly respect this point of view. anniemcu did say "personally." Nowt wrong with that at all.

The fact that you can find it laughable is a pretty big clue.

This is a joke thread. If you don't like jokes, why are you reading it? The humour is not about rape. It is about having a day that goes from bad to worse. We do not each of us have to be raped to empathize with others having one of those days where nothing seems to be going well for us. I personally found the joke funny, and I personally find it offensive when someone takes a perfectly good joke and tries to turn it into a political agenda to try and make others feel bad about themselves. It is bad form where I come from.

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

It wasn't the greatest joke of all time exactly in any case. Can't see as it's really worth defending. Moving swiftly on... :sleep:
