I have no idea how this is funny?
It’s not funny it’s ultra low effort and obvious
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Cherry&defid=757445#757445
Edit: Looks like Urban Dictionary's link shortener doesn't work correctly if you want to link to an explanation further down the page. Fixed by manually digging through the HTML and finding the anchor id.
Ah OK that's REALLY stupid. But thanks for the explanation anyway.
It's the wrong explanation.
Cherry is slang for the hymen, so she's asking who wants her virginity.
Oh damn, Urban Dictionary fucked up the link. The hymen explanation is further down on the same page and I specifically clicked that share link and the shortened link even includes the ID for the correct explanation but somehow when expanding the link they just show you the full list without even scrolling down to the right section. Thanks for nothing, I guess.
That's really bizarre that it failed like that.
Yeah, seems like a bug in either their link shortener or their internal routing:
To fix this, they should either
This.
UD seems to be off 50% of the time at this point. It even missed basic stuff way back then, basically like AI before that was even a thing, giving what sometimes looked like the most innocent take possible on pretty rude slang.
This is a great example: I do not believe anyone on Earth would use or know that meaning for cherry . . .
They actually do have the sensible explanation but for some reason not as the top one. Sorry for not checking that the link UD gave me actually leads to the correct explanation. It instead shows the full list even though the link contains the correct ID.
OK I can see how that is funny, but I had absolutely zero knowledge of such a connection.
Completely anecdotally and despite the simple graphics, I always see her as quite attractive. 😋
It might be an age thing. The term seems to have dropped off around the 2010s, but it was pretty popular in porn in the 2000s.
Yes I'm probably too old then.
what the hell is this even
Urban Dictionary's share button didn't give me what I actually wanted to link to. Fixed.
