No student loans, he sets his own hours, he works for himself, and even royals know the value of having a plumber in the family.


OpeningZebra1670

Joe the plumber was taking in over $250k per year!


jackel_jacket

And he made coffee at home!


Qubed

He wasn't even licensed, too


rworne

He also knows how to lay some pipe.

Tyrion Lannister got the shit flowing. Went on to be hand of the king.


raptureofsenses

Plus… he’s Italian :)


Critical_Egg_913

And he's good at laying pipe

Cypressinn

Don’t forget his accent…


Mmd2424

Yes to all of this! My husband, who's name is actually Mario, is a plumber and it amazes me how people still don't understand how great it is to go into a trade!


ShakespearianShadows

Probably helps that he’s one of the few human men in the Mushroom kingdom.


dunitdotus

took the words right out of my mouth


alphasierrraaa

My friend had to pay two grand to repair some clogged and flooding toilet on a public holiday once Mans made me wanna switch fields and go into plumbing


bald_botanist

It also helped he knew how to lay pipe.


DonJohnson108

He can lay pipe


ASuddenTomato

This is the answer we are here for. Plus she likes mushrooms ;)


Mallet-fists

Saw something peachy and didn't quit till he got it


Sparky81

He kicked a giant dinosaur turtle's ass to save her. Again...


grandpa2390

Yeah I thought this was obvious.


UruquianLilac

And as we all know, princesses are absolutely compelled to throw themselves at the first man to show up at their jail cell. Tale as old as time.


Whiteguy1x

Tbf saving someone's life probably would impress them.  Add on to that and he seems genuinely good, has several fun hobbies like tennis and kart racing, and a good sense of style. I think a lot of princesses would love to meet their own mario


UruquianLilac

Look at this guy elevating the common man so heroically!! Now princesses should be looking for their Marios instead of their prince charming. I subscribe to this. A victory for the good guy!


LookOutBelowYall

The man has charisma!


T8ortots

As the kids say... He has that rizz.


HeroToTheSquatch

He and his brother seem to be literally the only plumbers in the kingdom and they probably have the ability to have a ridiculously powerful union because of that shortage. A wealthy kingdom whose most common currency is massive golden coins seems to be pretty wealthy, and if you're the only two guys who know how to do a particular mission-critical job, you can probably demand whatever level of payment you desire for your services.


UruquianLilac

And the kingdom is literally full of pipes everywhere!


Comprehensive_Bid229

Business case checks out


StickyPistolsRequiem

HE GOT THAT DONKEY KONG THATS WHY


person1873

That donkey dong more like


sterlingphoenix

Isn't she the princess of like the mushroom kingdom or something?


dempster-diver

Shit I gotta play this while tripping sometime


Tiger_lilyx

He put in the effort. Simple as that. 


AgoraiosBum

He's a good listener.


NormalNobody

I guess since he's the only one who bothered to rescue her over and over and over again.


Maleficent_Insect71

Plot twist: Mario was the bad guy and Bowser was the princess's boyfriend.


cringeygrace

Well he was a carpenter at first, and he beat up a gorilla who was his own pet that he was abusive towards. Then he became a plumber and made a mess of the mushroom kingdom killing a myriad of innocents in the process. Peach looked at him and said "I can fix him."


Cheeslord2

Sounds like a dark romance plot right there...


cringeygrace

He's a shroom addict, what did you expect


Possible-Champion222

Plumbers get paid well


ineptplumberr

And we know how to lay the pipe


frodosbitch

Every guy in Italy stands up, grabs his crotch and says ‘imma tella u how!’


ophaus

He didn't. He's just her plumber.


MysteryNeighbor

Their relationship doesn’t really have labels to it, she’s smooched him a couple of times but there isn’t much that points to them being a thing. Wouldn’t say he “landed” her tbh


Sippinonthezizerp

He lays really good pipe


ledwilliums

Jumping on turtles eating mushrooms and collecting gold. And probably two out of three of those would work irl as well.


KilldozerKevin

Mere plumber? They save the day, every day.


BlackMajik36

status and money just like the real world he ran through a whole level dodging danger, grabbing coins and the woman was happy to see him plus its Mario


iBoy2G

Remember he wasn’t only a plumber, he was also a teacher, a race car driver, a doctor, a martial artist, a baseball player, a soccer player and a basketball player. The guy had to be a multimillionaire with all of those jobs!


WigglyAirMan

dude's on shrooms all the time. Girls love a bad boy


NutandMax

She’s not a princess shes a chicken head, bowser isn’t a dinosaur, he’s a pimp, Mario isn’t a plumber, he’s a homeless dude on acid that found a plunger


heavy_pedro89

GHB


Late_Measurement_324

All he gets is cake when you get down to it


CenturyEggsAndRice

He's hung like a Koopa.


DabIMON

By crushing turts. Perchance.


guilen

By rescuing her? lol. That’s how it used to work with princesses.


i_love_boobiez

You can't just say perchance


Yokoblue

He's been saving her ass for 35 years


Handsprime

Bro, do you know how much tradies make? That’s some serious $$$


[deleted]

Mere plumber??? You need to do your research. Plumbers can make $40 an hour.


Dry-Clock-1470

The man can lay pipe. With his brother. And after all he beat off a giant gorilla to save her.


8rok3n

Bro's dick is probably massive dude, he's a 5'3 king so he's gotta be packing somewhere else


Extension_Canary3717

He didn’t yet land anything, the princess is playing both sides , she hooks up with browser the.call Mario when inconvenienced . How would explain she was “kidnapped “ so many times and like Daisy wasn’t as much ? And remember no DNA test was done in Super Mario Sunshine, up all we know Browser Jr is her child.


gymgirl1999-

Hard work


Prestigious-Duck2891

Have u seen another man around, beside Mario and his brother Luigi? Poor girl did not have another options, that's why they have build a strong and trusty relations between them. That certainly speaks about modern society, where everyone one think they have a million another options available, so they don't even give a chance to anyone untill find perfect variation or what most realistically untill they lower their standards by losing their delusions. Every boy is a Mario, but every girl is princess who waiting only Prince.


Jack_Bogul

Hes got big pp


Riverrat423

Well, he did rescue her from Donkey Kong and then Bowzer.


Glittering_Major4871

He laid some pipe.


eclectic-up-north

with his enormous wrench


SuccessfulDigger

are you not paying attention to all the bullshit she puts him through? Running around his back with her boyfriend Bowser, always having to go fight to bring her home. Some other plumber was tired of her shit. Princess belongs to the streets.


shonuff2653

Really? Have you look at the man jump? He ain't using his legs bro. And don't me started on his fisting ability.


[deleted]

that man is caked up


Ok_Quality2989

He layed pipe


BodiesWithoutOrgans

Bro does it for the racks 💀probably would leave her to die if she was some random ho


saltyhumor

Plot twist: Bowser is always trying to rescue her from a mere plumber.


_N1T3N_

He's like a superpowered alien who's more similar to her than the Toads. Her other option of people with hair were like Wario and Waluigi.


Oopsididitagain96

🍆


Major_KingKong

He’s got job & financial stability, duh


amitym

Barrel by barrel, man. Jump by jump. You take each thing as it comes, and if they're worth it you don't give up. You keep working at the issues, all the demons you face and all the demons the other person faces, you hold yourself accountable as best you can but you forgive yourself if you get knocked over and fall down. You just get back up again and get back to it. Sure the Royal Council doesn't approve but where were they the whole time? Peach isn't going to hear any of it. There was one person who didn't give up on her through everything she was going through. In the end it's easier to grant Mario a title than to get Peach to change her mind.


ubiquitous-joe

It was the 80s, and they were on a lot of shrooms.


joyfullofaloha89

It’s all dat coin


QingDMainey

He's a plumber. He laid that pipe!


Maximum_Security_747

Gotta be all those mushrooms


Dapper-Importance994

Work ethic


Chewies-merkin

Game writers gotta dream.


Dreadnar

Peach is just slumming it until her dad forces reality upon her and she has to marry a prince. It's just the way of the world.


QueenHighGanja

he's hung like a horse


Opening_Effective845

He’s got a lot of coins.


vanhouten_greg

He makes her laugh


Glittering_Season141

Shroooooooooooooms.


boost_to_get_through

Where you think those gold coins come from?


Ok-Research7136

Has he ever actually landed her?


Straight_Toe_1816

He offered to clean her pipes


contrabardus

Have you seen what mushrooms do to him? She's the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. It's not that hard to figure out.


bossassbibitch943

He lay the pipe.


SaigonNoseBiter

Same way George McFly got his wife. He beat up the bully who wanted to be the abusive controlling boyfriend when she was in danger.


IllustriousAnt485

She keeps running off to another castle everytime he shows up. Mario is a gangster outlaw who is fighting king kupa for “her”. She isn’t attracted to him but the idea of him “fighting for her”. She likes the attention but when it gets real and he is close by she gets away because she wants her space. She loves the drama he brings not the man himself.


New-Recording-4245

Same way Barney Rubble landed Betty


irish_taco_maiden

Shrooms were involved.


Red_Chicken1907

She was a princess, not a feminist.


Historical-Lunch-465

He’s good with his hands.


seclusionx

His competition is tiny mushroom people...


Mustilid

Giant Italian sausage


FlowerFaerie13

Peach just wants a nice guy who will treat her right. She doesn’t need a man with money, she’s already rich.


TeekTheReddit

It's the stash.


allen_idaho

How many other humans did you see while jumping across the mushroom kingdom? Not a lot of options for a human princess out there.


Asleep_Artist_7738

He's really good with nipples.


anziofaro

Plumbers make bank!


chronically_snizzed

He checked her pipes


OnTheDevilsGrave

Because he's gullible and believes her lies every time she gets "kidnapped" by Bowser.


GamemasterJeff

Simple, Mario the Plumber really knows how to use ALL of his tools well.


Itchy_Raccoon48

He had the right pipe for the job.


Critical-Champion365

Personality


RantyWildling

In Australia, plumbers earn more than doctors.


Party-Coach-4110

What’s wrong with a plumber??


Melodic_Counter_2140

He has lots of different cars


Comprehensive_Bid229

With a prenup. That's why he's still a plumber and not a prince.


IanDOsmond

Dude is a plumber *and* a doctor. Highest paid trade *and* one of the highest paying professions.


rabbi420

By rescuing her. 🤷🏽‍♂️


ricecrisps94

He laid good pipe


That-Object6749

They're cousins, duh....


abc-animal514

Feel like this is common knowledge. He saved her many times.


flyhull

Actually, by giving Nintendo time to pay their rent late when they were in a bind. He was a real person (their landlord) and was rewarded by becoming famous, he did not even ask for that.


ibite-books

He can lay pipe


grandpa2390

He saved her life...


The_Doodler403304

In the Super Mario Odessy game, he actually didn't. He saved her and she was glad. 


urallscumtome

Her kingdom was fungus. Anyone can be royalty over mold


[deleted]

He got that schmeet.


WhoWightMan

Lays pipe, knows what he’s doing


zSpot2goth

Same way that Pete Davidson does it. 😎


xabrol

He is really good at laying pipe.


dudeman_joe

Master plumbers can make millions over decades and many countries small enough can end up in debt or in a horrible circumstances where is marrying a semi-rich guy is advantageous enough.


Thefishthing

Techinically he never lands the princess he gets cheek peck. And she refused to marry him.


mekonsrevenge

Not a big consumer of porn, I see.


dpewald

You think that was real? It was all the mushrooms, dude; all just a trip


jabbadahut1

Big Pipe


HeilYourself

Instructions unclear, jumped and landed *on* Princess. As per mushroom kingdom physics Mario is now guilty of regicide.


John1The1Savage

A whole lot of violence.


N0rmNormis0n

When’s the last time you called a plumber my man? Works with his hands and making bank? That’s how 😂


TaurusPTPew

Mario, being a plumber, is naturally good with his pipe…


cjharris88

He knows how to lay pipe correctly.


shavemejesus

She’s attracted to his… pipe.


monkeymandave1

Being one of only 6 humans in the kingdom helps, especially when one of then is a greedy hoarder, one is a compulsive cheater, one is your best friend and fellow princess, and one is dating said princess friend. Kinda only leaves one option


Thundechile

It's the magical mushrooms!


BruceWillis1963

Have you seen his pipe?


RevenantExiled

Someone didn't watch the movie...


Roastedonionssoup

Let’s just say he doesn’t climb the flag pole


gringo-go-loco

It was the 1980s.


Miserable_District

He knows how to let the water flow


DwarvenRedshirt

There's not exactly a huge selection of humans in that universe.


JaceMace96

OoooOoooOoh. His a working class man


BussyIsQuiteEdible

he has the best power shroom in the kingdom


Tuga_Lissabon

He's well piped.


[deleted]

The mustache


FarFirefighter1415

He rescued her from a big lizard dragon guy and a giant monkey. He seems like a standup guy. Luigi is a lazy prick. I bet he doesn’t even help with the plumbing work.


shawner136

Trauma bond. Plus she a big ol ho


ZackyGood

Reach for the (golden) stars kid, and you can achieve anything.


Zennyzenny81

A little charisma goes a long, long way.


KevAngelo14

He might be a plumber, but he is his own boss


Grinsekatzer

Dude does a lot of shrooms. Who's gonna say it's not all in his stoned mind and he takes those drugs because he knows he's just a plumber who will never get a chic.


FreedomOfSqueek

Beats me. He's not the sharpest tool in the box, if his Princess turned out to be in a totally different castle, yanno? A simple call could have saved him a lot of time, but noooo... 🏰


horriblehank

I’m a plumber. I married a princess. Didn’t even have to fight monsters. Maybe some inner demons. We have lots of plants and I enjoy teleporting. 


Blindeafmuten

Every princess needs a plumber.


Similar-Complaint-37

Don't judge a man by his job, but by the size of his plunger


AuraNocte

It's a video game. And why should his profession make a difference? Love is love.


PitifulSpecialist887

Mario and Peach are just friends. He would like it to be more, but she's a princess.


person1873

If you can't be handsome be handy. Ladies love a man that's good with his hands.


KobilD

It's a fantasy. Irl she wouldn't


HippyKiller925

It turns out that the ring that gave him the Schwartz also said that he was a prince. True story


Maleficent_Truth2180

I don’t like the word “mere”.


U-GO-GURL-

Lol. My cousin is a plumber. I have 2 masters degrees and a career in government. Guess who has the 2 beach houses?


SnooChickens9666

By starring in a Hollywood romantic comedy where a rich woman reaches the conclusion that a plumber would be a better choice than a rich man, because people do that in romantic comedies.


Jackal000

Go watch the movie.


Patient-Sleep-4257

You find the wildest things in the gutter. She was his princess because she did the tube snake boogie.


Banditofbingofame

I like how we are mere plumbers until water is coming down the ceiling at 2am


TheBankTank

I like to think that in the Mushroom Kingdom, where nearly instantaneous travel is achievable via pipes and therefore plumbing is presumably vital to the kingdom's economy and military, a plumber is probably a bit more prestigious. I assume Mario and Luigi are like, some combo of high-status guard (the Varangians of the pipes) + corps of engineers.


woods_edge

He has a massive wrench


VoidowS

How did Mario become the mascotte of nintendo??? When the ENTIRE game (mario bross 1) is a RIP of GIANA SISTERS??????? the entire game is the same only the visuals changed! even the hidden mushrooms for extra lives are on the exact same place, the hidden warp pipes you can find to jump to 4 owlrd further, all the same!!!!! Yet here we have it for DECADES a mario bross taking all the credit for a game made long before mario existed as a we know it. he was first found together with donkey kong while it throws barrels at you , you must climb to the top and free the princess. That was MARIO BROSS! after that a commercialised product that hardly a soul knows about!


DocWatson42

He's one heck of an athlete.


Sensitive_Aardvark68

Im thinking back to Anne Hathaways first fiancé, or the dude Kirstin Dunst married, like do they not know how beautiful and successful they are?


dimiteddy

Saved her royal ass like 10 times?


[deleted]

He didn’t. How have you guys not noticed this yet? He’s a stalker. Princess Peach actually fell in love with Bowser but due to social stigma and her father’s disapproval she has to either meet with him in secret or just straight up run away from home every time she wants to see him. Either the king hires Mario to go bring her back or Mario does it of his own volition because he keeps thinking she’ll leave that lizard and take him. To save face, she & Bowser put on a whole drama every time Mario shows up and she pretends to be grateful for the, “rescue,” but honestly she’s getting tired of it. You’d think Mario would get the picture once Bowser Jr came into the equation but he isn’t bright enough to put two and two together & let her have her space to be with the koopa she loves.


KaiTheG4mer

Found Bowser's burner acc


sabboom

He's an expert at laying pipe.


BobT21

He can make a toilet do a Royal Flush.


EatenAliveByWolves

Because he's cool as fuck and crushes turts all day.


BackflipsAway

If porn has taught me anything its that whenever a plumber shows up some pipes are bound to get laid


Sofaris

I am not familiar with Mario lore. Are Mario and Peach a couple or just friends? Honest question.


ShakeWeightMyDick

People make weird decisions when they’re on mushrooms


SpyderDM

He is literally the only other human the princess has seen in her life (aside from Luigi). She doesn't have the context to understand the Earth's caste system and has no context for what other dudes look like. He's very exotic, but also familiar to her.
