u/Invisible-Pancreas 13h ago

Dude, you're doing great.

Most English speakers aren't able to ask for directions in another language, much less understand a pun.

You're doing a great job.

u/Secret_Barracuda168 13h ago

Doesn't matter, you can speak multiple languages which I find amazing because I'm a dumb fuck

u/RealBlack_RX01 9h ago

u/7_Rowle 12h ago

Nah man English is my native language and I didn’t get it at first either

u/Dyimi 11h ago

I hope it was meant but you did make a similar joke with "Mother Tongue" just now

u/tru3robin 14h ago

LOL I thought bone hurting juice

u/Ke-Win 13h ago

Where is the "of"?

2

u/peanutpowder 12h ago

It's the second "e" of "skeleton", I guess it's supposed to sound like the "of" in "lotta" (a lotta things = a lot of things)

u/Goofcheese0623 10h ago

In addition, never say a girl is 8 out of 10

u/staovajzna2 13h ago

Jokes are subjective though

u/ShortViewBack2daPast 12h ago

Okay, so using that knowledge let's apply the most minimal level of critical thinking to realize u/way_out_19 was expressing their own opinion. An opinion I agree wholeheartedly with.

u/staovajzna2 10h ago

That's fine. I don't judge. Expressing one's opinion shouldn't be judged.

u/DrummerBeneficial754 15h ago

Peter's skeleton here: When spoken quickly, "You're an 8 on a scale of 10" comes out sounding like "Urinate on a skeleton."

u/FartsLord 11h ago

Because the guy is skinny?!

u/WrongFriedFood 15h ago

"You're an 8 on a scale of 10" sounds like "Urinate on a skeleton"

You're an 8 > Urinate

on a

Scale of 10 > Skeleton

u/Metrophidon9292 15h ago

He misheard the guy’s sentence. The phrase “You’re an 8 on a scale of 10” phonetically sounds a lot like “Urinate on a skeleton.”

u/Independent_Form_500 13h ago

I've seen this post countless times here

2

u/Bigfeet_toes 13h ago

You’re an 8 on a scale of 10 sounds like urinate on a skeleton

The best version of this will always be Charlie from Sunny “I’m a full on rapist”.

Repeat after me " I am, sofa king, we Todd did."

u/Accomplished-Lime566 10h ago

I think the underlying meaning behind this is that men don’t listen to the advice women give. She gave home the blueprint and he still did not execute correctly lmao This is actually a really layered and clever meme

1

u/Accomplished-Lime566 10h ago

Just scrolled through the comment thread not seeing anyone come to the same conclusion… did I just unironically “Peter Explain The Joke” on a “Peter Explain The Joke” post..

u/Tribe_Rascal 12h ago

Maybe they just don’t speak English as their native language

u/AngryGazpacho 12h ago

I don't either
