Joe can't even steal a joke properly

If you are going to plagiarize a joke at least make it better than the original, not worse!

One of those men has a genuine respect for the men and women of the military.
The other despises and looks down upon them.

Just think of what's next in line. And next in line after that.

The fix is in.

He said "dull" I thought.  Was that because they didn't laugh at his bad joke?

I think I "missed"  that backwards joke in MechAg94's post because the final panel threw me off a bit.  The Dino with the tears.

It doesn't really seem appropriate, really.  Sweat would seem more appropriate,  to me, atleast.

Or .... it could just be the spiderwebs stuck in the gray matter ... :laugh:

Well, the T-Rex seems to be smiling, so maybe they are tears of joy because he got the desired reaction.

This bad joke is a bit more straightforward.

Not sure if you have access to Instagram.  This guy posts a bunch of puns and bad jokes all with the same graphic.  I would refer to them as Dad Jokes, but everyone has their own term.

Or you can try dry humor like Paul Harrell in his ad for Red Bull and the Taurus Judge.   =)

Watched that earlier. He seems to be understandably grumpy over YT demonetizing him

Odd.  When Johnny Carson would screw up a joke, everybody laughed anyway. Of course, come to think of it, Carson didn't have the launch codes.

Please don't allude to the idea that Joe has control over nuclear weapons. It may be, but let's think of non-horrifying things.
