When I'm out and about I like to have a couple of good go-to jokes to break the ice. Generally I stick to a few that I have used in the past, but I feel they are getting a bit stale now and looking to update my "joke inventory". Here goes one of mine:
Mickey mouse and Minnie Mouse are duking it out in a divorce court hearing. The presiding judge asks Mickey, "So, you claim your wife is crazy?"
Mickey replies, "No, I said she was fucking Goofy."I know, I know! I promise that it gets a laugh 79.5% of the time!

8 years ago+24 24 0Just found "snapzu" --- where have you been all my life?
Ever since the Ellen Pao fiasco I have been bouncing around hopeless cloneternatives (voat, hubski, empeopled and other pathetic excuses for alternatives) hoping to find a place that will some day dethrone reddit and in the process create something better. Today is the day I think I found what I was looking for, however, I have an obvious --- but --- serious question:
Why the f**k is this place so unknown? Why did it take me 3 years to discover "snapzu" when there are members here all the way back from 2012? Do people here just hope this place stays a secret forever? whats the deal?
Anyway I'm here because a buddy decided to save my last remaining shred of sanity and sent me an invite code to give this place a spin. Glad I took him up on his offer and now I'm here. Happy to meet you all whoever you may be.
