It hinges on knowing who Kitty Genovese was.

Good morning. UK shift starts...

it's wordplay

is the implication here that it's to do with Irish pronunciation of "third world"

Pronounced 'Trócaire' iirc.

Some of you not immediately knowing who Kitty Genovese was is forgivable, but not bothering to look her up on your own only adds to the punchline.

In fairness the need to research an entry on the Excelsior thread is somewhere in the sub-basement of my pyramid of needs.

Aren't most basements subterranean?

I know, I know, I could look it up, but that would take me away from my view of the street.

i was gonna look up Kitty Genovese on Wikipedia but just figured someone else would do it so I didn't bother

I'll save everyone some googling: it's a brand of cat food.

which contains a good deal of pesto

ME, TODAY: "You know, a month from now, you and some other posters are going to be cracking Kitty Genovese jokes on the Excelsior thread."

ME, LAST MONTH: "... ... ... Trump's going to somehow win this thing, isn't he?"

Way more surprised at and disappointed in Iago than in Trump.

Iago's selection of a diehard torture proponent for his attorney general was the last straw

I watched a Danish show recently -- it involved a mentally ill woman who was a sociopath as a teen who talked to her miscarried fetus that she kept in her purse. Kinda pissed Fred is banned, so he can't respond to my assumptions that most Danish women carry miscarried fetuses in their handbags and talk to them when they are alone.

Just realised I was confusing Vera Bradley with Vera Drake the abortionist mike leigh movie, which made sufjan's joke seem nastier than it was

Vera Bradley might not be so well known. Either way, I apologize for any nastiness felt. Not a good topic for clumsy jokes.

As if a danish woman would carry a vera bradley bag, fetus or no

Perhaps if she had a semester at IU

if pizza is allowed as pie, pie will wipe the floor with cake. or something else a bit less disgusting sounding.

not necessarily, if pizza is allowed as pie then it stands to reason that gin & tonic can be allowed as cake and then it's all to play for again

^^ Ward providing stiff competition to wins here in the concise pun department.

i don't like it, but i respect it

(I saw that post earlier but had somehow skipped over the "anal discipline" part of imago's post so my initial reaction was just "wtf is wrong with you ward"

)

haha wins I did the same thing

probably because I had read the original post which didn't include that >:-(

Leprosy always seemed like an unfair tradeoff for people who are clever enough to have figured out how to fuck an armadillo.

Her last marriage was also her longest lasting: she tied the knot with Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt in 1986. He has also battled ill-health in recent years, hospitalised twice in 2010, once after swallowing a bee and another time following his gluing his eye shut.

The boy lay on his back in bed, eyes open, staring at the ceiling. His mouth was open. In one hand, an empty tube of model-airplane cement was tightly clenched; all over the bed were empty bottles of airplane dope, paint thinner, turps.

The bees had torn him open. His guts had fallen out.

'xxx had torn him open. his guts had fallen out' is my favourite b-tier ilx meme, thx for the reminder

'b-tier' was an entirely unintentional pun, i assure you
