Comment on I am not a builder… but that does not seem right
aesthelete@lemmy.world 6 days agoThis type of wife hatred is commonly mined for nuggets of supposed comedic gold. “I hate my wife” is a similar type of comedy for guys that’s not very dissimilar from “I hate my kids and love wine” for moms.
This type of comedy was becoming pretty outmoded during the Obama years, but the MAGA zoomers are trying to bring it back.
My personal opinion is that it sucks, and that if you really hate your wife so much you should consider divorce.

God, thank you. I have a long history of trauma such that ‘jokes’ about an unfun, unhealthy life aren’t fucking funny when they could be a cry for help in ‘joke’ form. I’d much rather offer someone who’s ‘joking’ the support they might be too afraid to ask for than to ‘laugh’ at a ‘joke’ about a bad time.

yeah you see this type of thing lampooned as “straights humor” now
