God damn it, I never make dad jokes, but the electrician just showed up and it is a husband+wife duo. I could not resist a "ah, power couple" and it fell flat, fam. IT FELL FLAT.
@hacks4pancakes I giggled for you. That was a primo dad joke. I love it.
@hacks4pancakes you should ask them how many people have said the exact same thing before you did
@Viss I thought it was pretty damn witty
@hacks4pancakes it is witty! i'm only suggesting you arent the first person to use the line on them :D
@Viss I SUPPOSE someone may be as witty as me.

@hacks4pancakes you and I have had our brains touch before - im willing to wager thats been the case elsewhere as well :D - your wittiness has clearly rubbed off on someone else, and they got to them before you did.

it's the only possible explanation :D

@Viss @hacks4pancakes nah. There are a lot more oblivious people out there than you think
@hacks4pancakes
I think you got robbed. That pun was shockingly good!
@hacks4pancakes The only thing I can conclude here is that we're obviously not calling them again
@hacks4pancakes Bummer, you'd think if anyone could appreciate a joke like that, they conduit.
@hacks4pancakes that joke is hilarious and nobody should ever tell you otherwise
@hacks4pancakes too much resistance from them!
@hacks4pancakes I firmly believe that if a pun falls in a forest, and nobody gets it, it darned well still makes a sound.
@hacks4pancakes Clearly you need to kick them out and find a new electrician. Sorry, I don't make the rules. The universe has spoken.
@hacks4pancakes their loss - that’s funny as hell right there
@hacks4pancakes I appreciate you! I would of asked which one of you is AC and which one is DC..

@hacks4pancakes Holy crap, that must have been the best. setup. EVER!

I'm proud of you for making it. Even if no one else got it. You did it for the art of the thing.

MGM. One of my favorite trivias.

@skydog @DavidJBianco @hacks4pancakes
🥥 VERY impressed with your show biz credentials as expressed in your bio, Stu!
It probably won't interest you in the least to hear this -- but I'm going to tell you anyway -- that I was the understudy to the understudy for the role of #RumTumTrigger in a summer stock production of #Felines. (We couldn't afford to pay the royalty for #CATS.) 🥥

@hacks4pancakes I had a mason show up to do some work on my chimney and he introduced himself as Darryl.

I asked if he had any brothers named Darryl.

Total miss.

I thought it was funny...

[Edit: OMG, I told the story wrong. The mason was actually a guy named Larry and his assistant was named Larry. So I asked if they had a brother named Daryl. No wonder it fell flat.]

@robotfactory @hacks4pancakes

"I'm confused. Where's Larry? I thought it was clear that y'all arrived in a very specific order"

@hacks4pancakes I'm shocked. They were clearly well grounded.
@hacks4pancakes must not have sparked joy.
@awalton @hacks4pancakes
🥥 I would have a snappy comeback if I could just remember #MarieKondo's name. 🥥
@hacks4pancakes Yeah, you'd need to be an actual dad to pull this one off.
@aristofontes @hacks4pancakes As an actual dad, absolutely the fuck not. This was GOLD.
@hacks4pancakes oh no sounds like they’ve lost their spark.
@hacks4pancakes Tragic. This is solid. You deserved the laughs.
@hacks4pancakes that’s a genius line 🤣🤣🤣 sorry it didn’t slay
@hacks4pancakes heartbreaking. clearly a sign of the breakdown of society.

@hacks4pancakes That is just shocking....

...I'll see myself out

@hacks4pancakes damn it. That’s supposed to be a GIF of Rick Moranis giving a thumbs up. But I guess all you get are dad khakis.
@hacks4pancakes the joke was clearly indicated 😂😂😜
@hacks4pancakes “Death is easy, comedy is hard.” FWIW, I think it’s awesome.
@hacks4pancakes
I'm shocked. If I were an electrician, I would have gotten a good jolt out of it. Maybe they blew a humor capacitor or two...
@hacks4pancakes
God, that's perfect. You'll never get another one like that.
@hacks4pancakes Seems like they were well-grounded and not too amped up about your lines
@hacks4pancakes ...would you say it met with some resistance?
@hacks4pancakes I bet they're great electricians since they weren't shocked by your joke.
