I think this is the best meme format ever. The Coral joke never gets old for me.
What year is it
Its an older meme, Sir, but it checks out.
I appreciate it’s correct usage of “coral”
Even older meme!
Wait, Twin Peaks Season 3 is older than the Walking Dead?
“what year is it” is from Jumanji
Hrm… not by my calendar…
…oh no.
=P
We’re going back to better times
When I bought my house I was quoted 20k to add the chimney 😂
Man I literally have an extra unused chimney on my house that I don’t want and it would probably cost me just as much to get rid of it.
That’s through the roof.
Classic meme format
What’s up with the misspelling of Carl’s name tho? Intentional? Meant to reference that other character, Carol? Coral? I’m Bamboozled!
It’s intentional. The way the character says the name makes Carl sound like Coral
Ah thank you, I get it now!
Kinda like Wowt from Lost.
Walking dead format.
Kill clankers bruh
That doesn’t grammatically work though.
Wrong verb tense on ‘costs’.
Better opening line:
Do you know what the cost of a chimney is?
A chimney’s cost is ‘through the roof’.
A chimney does not cost ‘through the roof’.
I feel like it still works colloquially though. E.g., “Do you have any idea how much Netflix costs these days? It’s through the roof!” sounds totally normal to my ears
Eh, to each their own, I’m not gonna tell you what you can and can’t find funny, but I appreciate matching verb tenses in my puns and jokes…
…unless of course the joke/pun revolves around pointing out a quirk of what happens when you try to do that in some odd context, where the point is the unexpected incongruity, as opposed to this case, where it is incidental.
To me this just reads as a flubbed delivery.
(pretend I know how to put an ascii shrug here)
We’re very discerning meme connoisseurs here in lemmyshitpost 🧐
Precisely.
Wow, you really managed to suck the fun out of it huh
Only if your enjoyment of a thing is substantially rooted in the degree to which others enjoy a thing.
Or I guess also if you do not find analysis of why a thing is or is not enjoyable or funny (generally, or specifically to yourself) to be enjoyable itself.
That’s not a tense issue, it’s different parts of speech. “X costs something” is using the verb cost in the 3rd person singular. “An X’s cost” is using the noun cost.
