It's not a joke until a man from the internet has explained it to you.

@JoParkerBear That's funny because a lot of times, a man will condescendingly attempt to explain a humorous situation to a woman over the internet.

@JoParkerBear the man from the internet - the name for your new series where a white guy mansplains things. Maybe a western? That way we can introduce American Indians to him and explain First Nations.

@JoParkerBear This joke works because it points to mansplaining as a tactic for men to invalidate or otherwise take credit for a woman's contribution, and how ridiculous it is, particularly in the field of humor and jokes.

@jpthuot03 @JoParkerBear Doing the thing "ironically" is still doing the thing, dude. And it still makes you an asshole.

@adrienne @JoParkerBear come on now. If my attempt to amplify the message fell short and/or was unfunny that's one thing, but to call me an asshole is a bit excessive.
Show threadjust adrienneJan 20, 2023
@jpthuot03 @JoParkerBear You weren't "amplify[ing] the message", though. You were just mansplaining, "ironically", to a stranger. Which is, i assure you, no less fucking obnoxious than mansplaining non-ironically.

@adrienne @JoParkerBear I shall take your word for it and apologize. My attempt to engage humourously, and as an ally clearly fell short. It was not my intention to be obnoxious.

@jpthuot03 @JoParkerBear For future reference: some jokes only land well when you're already friends with the person you're telling them to.

@jpthuot03 She may be right in that some people could find it annoying or find it boorish, but I wasn’t bothered by it fwiw

@JoParkerBear well thank you. It really was with the best of intentions... and if it was just stupid/unfunny I'll eat that. I think I'm just so happy to be able to engage with such a wide variety of funny/clever/smart people here that I get a little rambunctious.🙏​
