I finally did it.

That’s right.

Dear reader, I finally wrote something so fucking offensive that I had to think twice and hesitate and ultimately not send a post that I wrote.

It was delightful

It was cutting

And?

It was about something that I have absolutely zero skin in the game about.

(Which to be quite honest is where I’m most ruthlessly funny AND also most at risk of cancelation)

And something that many others—who also have zero skin in the game—get really upset about.

They march and shout and protest.

And?

Instead of going too far about whether or not I’m going too far.

I let it sit in my drafts folder.

Oh boy!

I’ve been spending an hour a day writing jokes.

But this one?

I think it’s hilarious.

Yet too damn risky to share.

Curious?

Hope so.

Will I share it?

Oh fuck yes. It’s too damn funny not to.

Privately. In a locker room or out on a bike ride.

But not here.

If you want some of my worst jokes, you’ll have to come visit.

Until then?

Pretend to be stupid and keep’em guessing.
