Blue’s initial feelings of jealousy or insecurity at what Adam not telling her about his home life being so quickly replaced by concern and feeling for him and how horrifying she finds the idea of him not having a family because hers is so central to her identity …. Yeah… she’s so empathetic at her core which I feel gets lost sometimes when her judgemental streak is over focused on which she is very judgmental and I love that about her but like the minute she makes a decision to put that on hold in a sense she’s so empathetic

Other sister, to her husband: Take one for the team, Ian!

Very weirded out by the memes I've seen today of 9/11 that are basically laughing at the tragedy as if it were a joke.... I Just- Like, WHAT? It's just genuinely unnerving to see a gif of the towers falling as some kind of punchline. Or with a tag like "happy anniversary"

What is actually wrong with people?

Speaking of story research, I came across a short book that was somewhat related to my topic but more especially quite funny: Nikolaas Sintobin’s Jesuits Telling Jokes.

Mostly because lots of the jokes are astonishing self-roasts:

So a Franciscan, a Dominican, and a Jesuit all died at the same time and go to heaven. The Franciscan is welcomed by Saint Peter and invited to sit for a meal made especially for him by the best cook in heaven. See Peter also welcomes the Dominican, and a whole team of heavenly cooks prepare an excellent dinner for him. Finally it's the Jesuit’s turn to be welcomed by Saint Peter. But this time, it's Jesus himself who is standing at the stove and preparing the meal. The other two are flabbergasted in protest against the Jesuit’s preferential treatment.

St. Peter explains the situation: "We are full of Franciscans and Dominicans here. But he is the very first Jesuit to arrive in heaven.

And another I really relate to:

A Jesuit arrived in Rome and wanted to go to St. Peter's Basilica. He asked a Dominican to show him the way.

“Father,” said the Dominican, “I'm afraid you'll never find it. It's right in front of you.”

And then there’s:

A Greek Orthodox Christian, a Protestant, and a Jesuit were doing archaeological work together in Jerusalem. While digging, they uncovered a gravestone chiseled with the words: here lies Jesus of Nazareth, who claimed to be king of the Jews and was put to death by Pontius Pilate on the Feast of Passover.

Excited by this discovery, they quickly opened the tomb, only to be dumbstruck when they discovered a crucified body inside.

“Oh no,” said the Orthodox scholar, “the Church and all the good things she has done have been based on a fundamental error.”

“Oh dear,” said the Protestant, “the Bible, which is guided me throughout my whole life, is nothing but a pack of lies...”

“Wow,” said the Jesuit, “Jesus actually existed?”

I was listening to some of Weird Al Yankovic's music a bit ago; I would've loved to see Al do a parody of one of E's songs (maybe "Burning Love" or something like that) and just see E's reaction to it lol!

thinking about the laughing version of are you lonesome tonight and how ridiculously funny E was (some of the studio outtakes!), and what a good sense of humor he typically had, i have no doubt he would laugh at a Weird Al parody.

Russian Mob Boss Gets a New Employee:

RMB: (slowly pulling on the tooth of a captured American F.B.I agent with a pair of rusty pliers) "Tell me what you know, American. Or I pull out teeth one by one."

American: (stares him down, refusing to say anything. Suddenly, the door to the dungeon bursts open and one of the best hitmen in the Mob stands breathless in the doorway)

Hitman: (in Russian) "Sergei! My wife's in labor!"

RMB: (also in Russian) "Alina's in labor? Isn't she a few weeks early? What the hell are you still doing here?! Go to the hospital! Also, there are some gifts for you on my desk. Grab them on your way out. Now get out of here! We'll see you next month!"

Hitman: "Thank you, Sergei! We'll send you pictures!" ( leaves the room, slamming the door in his haste)

RMB: (turns back to the American) "Now for you-"

American: ( holds up his hands as well as he can against the restraints keeping him tied to his chair) "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold up. You give your employees a month off for Maternity leave?"

RMB: "You speak Russian?"

American: (shrugs)

RMB: "And, no. Paternity leave also."

American: "WHAT!"

RMB: (shrugs) "I pay also for nanny after Mama and Papa go back to work."

American: "Are you fucking KIDDING me?!"

RMB: "What, you don't have that in America?"

American: (looks at him incredulously) "No! Most places don't offer Paternity leave at all, and expect women to be back at work after a week! Two, if they're lucky. And we have to pay for sitters, or one parent has to take time off, or pray our families can help. And don't even get me STARTED on the hospital bills. My son is FIVE and we're still paying off the hospital stay.

RMB: " ...I have pulled ORGANS out of people, and that is worst thing I've ever heard."

American: "....Can I come work for you? I'll tell you what you want to know."

RMB: "You know what, this one on house. You work for me, don't even need intel anymore. I pay for family to move."

Get Festive with Nothing For You Ho: Funny Holiday Merchandise!

"Nothing For You Ho!" is a humorous and edgy take on holiday gift-giving, playing on the contrast between Santa's generosity and a more mischievous attitude. This phrase subverts the expectation of holiday cheer with a playful, slightly naughty tone.

The expression could be used in various contexts, such as on novelty items like t-shirts, mugs, or decorations. It might appeal to those with a sarcastic sense of humor or who enjoy poking fun at traditional holiday sentiments.

In some interpretations, it could be seen as a response to the idea of the "naughty list," implying that someone's behavior hasn't earned them any gifts. The use of "Ho" is a double entendre, referencing both Santa's iconic "Ho Ho Ho" and slang terminology.

This phrase might be incorporated into adult-oriented holiday parties, used in gag gifts, or as part of comedy routines that play with holiday themes. It's important to note that while some find this type of humor entertaining, others might consider it inappropriate or offensive.
