[InflatableBuddha]

your plan would be plan b...

:thumbsup:

And then the reply below it: "B as in blowjob".

 

[yh125d]

This is how it should have been.

That would just dumb down the joke for no reason. Thats not how it should have been

 

[blinblue]

That joke was a total abortion

 

[Terzo]

For those who were curious (but didn't look it up), Plan B.

Grammar fail ruins it.

 

[sandorski]

Nice attempt. I like this one better

lol, get it, lolololol

"If you're worried about the baby weight, maybe you should have used Plan B instead of Plan A?"

Still probably not an appropriate joke to make to a friend, but I think the delivery is a little less awkward.

 

[zinfamous]

As in Plan-B the drug?

If so. I like it! :thumbsup:

If not :'(

took me ~30 seconds, and this is what I came up with.

not bad OP, not bad at all....

Probably right. Definitely makes it more accessible that's for sure.




And yeah I'm definitely not gonna tell it to the mother

that sounds better coming from Courtney Thorne-Smith.

He's right, that's the way it should have been. Notice how it sounds incredibly awkward and obvious that way, but it makes sense. You should have abandoned ship at that point. But instead you tried to get clever and no one got it because your punch line doesn't make any damn sense.

Theres a point where too much explanation in a joke just makes it a sentence, not a joke. That is across that line.

A joke still has to make sense grammatically.

"your plan would B" isn't grammatically correct since "B" in this context is a noun and shouldn't follow directly after "would".

That's why it's a bad joke that should have stayed in your brain.

Not to mention that it's a wordplay joke, where context is everything.

 

[Farang]

If Plan A was to lose the baby weight, you should have went with Plan B.

This one's solid. But in this case it's really obvious that you're telling your friend she should have had an abortion on facebook. Awkward...

 

[rcpratt]

How have you people never heard of Plan B. I thought everyone has had at least one scare.

Oh wait...ATOT.

 

[geno]

Yes

seriously though, not a bad comment, so long as she's cool with it

So since its a wordplay joke, you're saying I should take out all of the wordplay? Do you have any idea of what humor is?

I said that if you can't make the joke make sense in the English language, then don't make it. If your joke can easily be mistaken for a typo, you have failed at writing that joke.

to be fair... some of us are not in the same demographic. back then we have the morning after or ru486 in the college days. now that i'm married... i don't care about the contraceptions, but i'm well versed in the different strains of marijuana.
