Jokes are worse when written down for starters, unless relying on some kind of wordplay. None of those other jokes are particularly funny, either, so was wokery ruining jokes before weirdos started describing everything as woke?

It's an awful joke that never should have won in a million years. It's fairly obvious to anyone with a tiny bit of critical thinking that it was chosen to win for no other reason than that they decided that a female had to win no matter what. They chose not by ability but by identity. It's pure bigotry. It's no different than opting for choosing someone based on the identity of their race. These people are real bigots. I don't understand how you can't see it? Last edited by Alf; 24-08-2023 at 06:46 PM. |

I agree it's an awful joke, and I didn't defend the joke. It was a prize that was voted on, it wasn't chosen, so I don't understand why you expect me to defend people having a terrible sense of humour.. You're reaching way too far, and reading way too much into some people finding an unfunny joke, funny. I'm sure there was probably a trans person, or a black lesbian in a wheelchair that appeared on stage, so I'm sure the woke, wokery, wokeness crowd could have found something even slightly funnier. I never get where you're coming from with this bigotry issue.

I saw someone re-jig it a bit to "I started seeing someone who works in the Zoo, I thought he was a keeper, turned out he was a Cheetah" that actually makes it funnier I think

When I heard that was the winning joke I thought there was potential wordplay to be had, with zoos and cheetahs, but she didn't get there. Hers feels like a first draft. |

Not the post I read because they specifically said - it would have sounded better if she said it like this
