Think I heard that one too, but the other was more popular. Of course I heard fat mommy jokes and "You're so stupid" jokes. Even the dumb blonde jokes. I mean in 90's you didn't have worry about getting canceled for your fuck up humor.

We really didn’t. Though those expressions, while still wrong, come across a lot different from a 13 year old than they do from a 50 year old man. 🤮

Yeah I remember sitting around with other 10-12 year olds as we told jokes we read in Playboy magazine. Same magazines we found either in the woods, or your step dads drawers. I only remember a couple of the jokes. But I know a couple of them looking back would only be funny to a 10 year old boy.

Whilst I begin to clutch at my pearls,

drawers

refers to cabinets. Right???

Yes, it a southern thing. But you can say that too.

Yeah this is the generation that brought us 4Chan and the Xbox gaming lobby.

I God damn wish there had been consequences for the hate some of my bosses had flung around back then. Just like constantly putting down anyone deemed lesser.
