“wait a minute…this lesbian bar doesn’t have a fire exit!” is one of the all time simpsons jokes. god dude y’all ever heard about this show. i guess if you watched this every night for years and also read a fuckload of terry pratchett books as a child it would probably shape the way you think about humor forever or something like that
ITT post your favorite simpsons or terry pratchett jokes. sorry if this takes off and it clogs up your timeline but the nice thing is you can silence this post rather than writing a bitchy little complaint about it merely because you refuse to engage with a basic feature of the website. yes i’m feeling kinda punchy why do you ask. anyway my other favorite one is hank scorpio’s “sorry it’s not in packages.” little obvious but it’s really good

"..."
...
(same silly voice) "I don't know!"
