Another version (extra cold, I think!):

Did you hear about the mansplainer who fell into a hole?

It was a well, actually.

That makes a lot more sense and now is actually funny.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yours actually makes sense. At least written anyway, if you say the joke I'm sure you could emphasise the "Well, actually.." just right.

How did the hipster burn his mouth?

He drank his coffee before it was cool

That deserved its own post.

Maybe I'm being dense, but I'm gonna need a mansplanation for this one.

Well, actually the joke is making fun of the way certain people explain things to people they think are dumber than them. But don't you worry your pretty little noggin. We'll make sure you understand this joke.

Struggling over whether to upvote, downvote, both, or neither 🤔

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is why you should have three lemmy accounts: One to upvote, one to downvote, and one to do neither.

I feel like some effort could be saved on that third one by not actually making the account until the "neither" button is added ;P

Upvote, downvote, leftvote, rightvote?

Upvote, upvote, downvote, downvote, leftvote, rightvote, leftvote, rightvote, bvote, avote, startvote!

[–] nieceandtows@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

Interestingly, both, and neither do the same thing here.

My wife asked me what "mansplaining" is and now I'm not sure how to answer her.

[–] Izzent@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Accurate representation of wish fulfillment.

[–] MargotRobbie@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I guess he couldn't see that well.

[–] dingleberry@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago

Well well well...

[–] RandomlyAssigned@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Actually it was a tree, he fell into a tree from a great height

on mastodon, saying anything as a guy is mansplaining

[–] Echo71Niner@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago

They didn't.
