        That’s how I heard it too, but I go out of my way not to repeat myself. Repeating anything just feels like touching someone else’s used… Skeet blanket

      I disagree, I sometimes do laugh at explained jokes, if the reason is something I can understand but didn’t connect the dots on rather than an in-joke that I don’t have the context for.

      I like learning things. Especially if I don’t have to dirty myself with becoming involved in a youtube person’s community.

      If anybody would like to tell me the funny story but doesn’t want to kill the joke, spoiler tags are an effective option ¯\(ツ)
