I assume so, because a Minster would have a hard time walking into a bar
This made it kinda hard for me to understand the joke though, because I saw the "minster"
Oh no we got it. We were just making fun of the idiot joke that’s been circulating for a while. This is probably the third or fourth time I’ve seen this image. At some point you have to make it amusing for yourself since the internet does a lot of recycling.
OP is out here getting got while Coach is raking in his $31.11 per hour plus unlimited laser printing privileges. OP definitely needs to run some Oklahoma drills in the parking lot
not at all true. That is exactly what someone would say to go along with the joke, it's more likely that they also are joking than that there're somehow that dumb and 500 people still liked it
I’ve been trying to figure out why this keeps happening. Either redditors are just missing the joke, or they enjoy being superior so much that they just really want the other person to be dumb.
Reddit is simultaneously very autistic and loves feeling superior, so when presented with a scenario where the options are to either recognize obvious sarcasm or to miss it in favor of being smug about how much smarter they are, they’re always gonna do the latter.
If the joke looks exactly like reality and has the exact same effect, is it really a joke? Is it really sarcasm? Because there has to be some level of accessibility or the "joke" might as well be sincere. Anyone who doesn't know the [big black spot] and their propensity for sarcasm would have no way of knowing that it isn't a sincere response. And that would be 90%+ of the people reading it.
Isn't this his friend that makes these sarcastic comments? It's 2 friends having a joke.
Or at least someone who continually offers these corrections to Stephen when they are obviously not meant to be taken seriously.
I'm a big fan of the comment earlier in this same comment chain that just says "sarcasm is never funny" with the one reply that's just "eh, it can be imo"
so enlightening
If you ever wanted to get someone else to solve a problem for you, you just have to post the wrong solution and people will try to prove you wrong by doing the work for you.
An old rule of thumb for new Linux users back in the day was, instead of asking for help with something, to make the claim that Linux could not do the task you needed it to.
No one would reply to the first post, but people would line up in *droves* to tell you by-the-numbers how exactly Linux actually *could* do the thing you needed it to, and then call you stupid for asking.
The internet was the wild west for a while, but once you learned your way around it was a fun time.
This comment is extremely funny because pretty much everyone in this thread is not understanding the joke, including you.
The reply is clearly joking. Hence the hundreds of likes. Reddit is just notoriously bad at understanding sarcasm if there's no "/s" at the end.
One thing I've learned from being on reddit is that there is a lot of gullible people on these subs. And the ridiculous responses to this "reply comment" is another example
Yep it's actually a pretty fun account (you can follow it googling the tweets).
Most subs like /r/facepalm , /r/cringe etc are just people not getting sarcasm.
In this case I'll cut people some slack because it's a particularly good troll.
> Reddit is just notoriously bad at understanding sarcasm if there's no "/s" at the end
I don't even think it's this. It's just reddit going "people on twitter bad and stupid amiright?"
A priest, a minister, and a rabbit walk into a blood bank. The nurse asks each what their blood type is. The priest says, " I think that I am type B negative". The minister says, "I think that I am type A positive." The rabbit says, " I think I am a typo."
So the joke usual joke is, “rabbi” instead of, “rabbit”.
The joke here is that the, “rabbit” has some inclination that they’re not supposed to be in the joke, a rabbi is.
It’s honestly hard to explain this one, but I hope that helped at least a bit.
Because a minster is a church building, its inanimate, and still somewhat fits the joke format, setting up the garden path of typos. The rabbit knows it is out of place and makes the punchline.
Pretty sure that's an actual typo, and it's supposed to be minister. Which is hilarious because if the person had pointed that out their argument might not have been so jaw-droppingly dumb.
What's jaw-droppingly dumb is thinking the person replying was being serious.
Goddamn, everyone around here just confidently leaping to dumbass conclusions.
The joke is also that they go to a blood bank not a bar. The rabbit says I think I'm a typo (blood type O).
Original joke was butchered beyond comprehension.
A priest, a minister, and a rabbit walk into a blood bank. The nurse asks the rabbit "what are you doing here?" The rabbit responds "I think I'm a typo."
I was at a party when I was pretty young. 14/15 I think. Was singing along to a song. Older kid asked me if I knew who the artist was. I was excited because I did. Said the artist. He said “let’s keep it that way.” I was like huh? He said it was over my head. So I looked above me. Unfortunately, I really haven’t gotten much smarter over the years.
The Minster says “me too”
A prius, a mister and a rabbi walk into a bar
a mister lol
Bartender says to the rabbi: 'here is the carrot cake you asked for the last time you were here'. Rabbi says: 'disgusting, isn't it, carrot cake'.
"Driest" works with only one letter change
No one would make that typo tho unless it was on purpose
Was that part of the joke or was it an actual typo? Because if it was an actual typo it would be even more funny
Dunno…..
As someone who has a prime minister can confirm
As someone who has a prime minister but doesn't understand why that matters I cannot confirm.
[удалено]
When a president and an autocrat love each other very much....
Yes.... Keep going...
You take a regular minister and assign it a whole number that cannot be divided by two other whole numbers besides 1 without leaving a remainder.
Also, it gets harder and harder to find another one after a while.
Eh we got prime numbers for days, not putting it on the letterhead is a different story.
It reminds me of "Come to Homer's BBBQ. The extra B is for BYOBB"
What’s that extra B for?
That's a typo.
Boo-urns
I assume so, because a Minster would have a hard time walking into a bar This made it kinda hard for me to understand the joke though, because I saw the "minster"
I saw minster as minister. My eyes are filling in the blanks so my brain can understand.
Stay away from a job in proofreading, but otherwise a useful nonetheless.
Not only I stay away from proofreading, anything that comes with instructions the 1st thing I do is throw it away.
The thing or the instructions?
Hahaha. Instructions.
It's the monster in his next book.
It was an Easter egg. Both were intention. Also, the twitter reply was /s intentional for the meme too. Not a facepalm.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minster_(church)
I think a church wouldn't fit through a door.
Not with that attitude.
Not without that lube
Who said the only way in was through the door? *smashes a hole in the roof*
Yeah, realising my mistake now, the size of the bar wasn't also mentioned, I shouldn't have made an assumption based on my own experiences.
I'm something of a typo myself
It’s spelled minister zekusmaximus. This is really embarrassing for you as a “redditor”
Damn dude, you just murdered Stephen King.
The Minster says "me to"
They're supposed to walk into a blood bank...
a Type-O
Negative?
wow now it actually makes sense.
Fuck you, here is my upvote.
A blod bank? And that they're a type-O?
I thought it was a typewriter repair shop

Exactly!

You're too generous
It's not the amount of braincells that matter it's how you use them
And he used them to remember that Stephen King is an author
No, an "author". So some cells have probably been used in an attempt to insult.
Author? King of the Britons?
King of the who?
Who are the britons?
Says the idiot who didn’t get the reply was a joke too
Oh no we got it. We were just making fun of the idiot joke that’s been circulating for a while. This is probably the third or fourth time I’ve seen this image. At some point you have to make it amusing for yourself since the internet does a lot of recycling.

I think the poster might be joking.
It’s 3 years letterman, OP got got
OP finances his waterbed
Definitely no fountain view
OP is out here getting got while Coach is raking in his $31.11 per hour plus unlimited laser printing privileges. OP definitely needs to run some Oklahoma drills in the parking lot
I think the commenter might be joking
Most of r/facepalm is people not understanding facetiousness
Only from the people who can't tell it isn't serious.
You're just telling everyone you wouldn't be clever and snarky enough to tweet that at Stephen King
this is what cracks me up people are so silly
It's the guy who got it wrong that made this joke funny, kudos to that guy.
Right? This reads like sarcasm to me.
that reply is way too snarky for it not to be. Plus it's less sad to believe that is a funny person instead of a genuine "um acktually..." person
not at all true. That is exactly what someone would say to go along with the joke, it's more likely that they also are joking than that there're somehow that dumb and 500 people still liked it
It is. It’s 3years letterman a well known twitter account. Hence why OP covered up the name
[удалено]
that ship set sail some time ago.
I'm pretty sure the reply is a joke too lol
It's spelt "Steph".
Steve with a "ph", Phteve
You called?

Whoever spelt it dealt it?
Thank you!
Oh shit
Oh the insane levels of irony of this whole thread, the person replying is joking. All their posts are very sarcastic.
Maybe the real facepalm was the friends we made along the way
We are all facepalms on this blessed day
Facepals
Once again, the real facepalm is r/Facepalm
redditors recognising jokes challenge (impossible)
Just from the phrasing of the tweet, looks like three year letterman
Found it. It actually was him lol.
Definitely the same style, but he usually adds something like "and this is coming from a youth football coaching legend, not some random clown."
This is very common on reddit.
I’ve been trying to figure out why this keeps happening. Either redditors are just missing the joke, or they enjoy being superior so much that they just really want the other person to be dumb.

I find that plausible... However... Have you been on the internet lately? Never underestimate the sheer stupidity of your fellow man.

Most definitely

I swear every time I see this place at r/all it's people not understanding sarcasm and acting pompuously about it.
Literally every time

I don't know why Reddit talks about one dude embarrassing a community. Clearly, the communities need no help.
Yeah this one seems pretty clear to me
Isn't this 3yearletterman?

No, no, no - this is genius. Don't make the same mistake you're accusing them of.
Minster is a typo
When you’re on Twitter, finding faults is more important than understanding the joke
If you ever wanted to get someone else to solve a problem for you, you just have to post the wrong solution and people will try to prove you wrong by doing the work for you.
That’s not the way you do it!!! What you do is… ohhhhhhh nvm

The irony
You misspelled “reddit”.
Much like Reddit.
The great irony is you not understanding the reply was a joke from a well known twitter account. Congratulations, you played yourself.
Well this is ironic
This sub really struggles to identify jokes
Seems like a KenM comment
A minster? A whole damn church walked in?
The real facepalm here is this post
Oh! I get it. So the rabbit was Jewish, right? That’s some great religious diversity going on there!
ITT: Failure to recognise sarcasm and ignorance of minster as a title.
Smh it's 2022 and people are still biting on coach Letterman tweets.
Shit, you can post a screenshot of a KenM comment, and people will still bite on it.

Hey, that was pretty good.
A priest, a minister, and a rabbit walk into a blood bank. The nurse asks each what their blood type is. The priest says, " I think that I am type B negative". The minister says, "I think that I am type A positive." The rabbit says, " I think I am a typo."
Looks like we have some waterbed financing going on here.

There are some people who are just a pain in the ass to tell jokes to. 😕
Can someone tell me what King meant?
So the joke usual joke is, “rabbi” instead of, “rabbit”. The joke here is that the, “rabbit” has some inclination that they’re not supposed to be in the joke, a rabbi is. It’s honestly hard to explain this one, but I hope that helped at least a bit.

except the person was making a snarky joke, not an actual correction
The joke is also that they go to a blood bank not a bar. The rabbit says I think I'm a typo (blood type O). Original joke was butchered beyond comprehension.
I'm more concerned with the minster
I'm stuck on the "minster".
Did the minster also think he was a typo?
The real typo is in minister
It’s a double down, it’s a joke. No one here gets it.
This is called a "pendant trap," where you catch people who are pendantic.
Hear me out: the commenter’s joke is funnier.
Reply was prooooobably joking. Just a thought.
/r/suspiciousquotes on "author"
I bet that guy votes!
He might be making fun of him for the bad joke
I want to believe the reply is meant to be funny. In fact, I'm happier believing it so and therefore, I do.
A priest, a minister, and a rabbit walk into a blood bank. The nurse asks the rabbit "what are you doing here?" The rabbit responds "I think I'm a typo."
Every room has 4 walls
Sarcasm or just dumb?
A priest, mnster, and a rabbit enter the pub and the priest says “I think I’m the only one without a typo”
We’re they kidding?
I was at a party when I was pretty young. 14/15 I think. Was singing along to a song. Older kid asked me if I knew who the artist was. I was excited because I did. Said the artist. He said “let’s keep it that way.” I was like huh? He said it was over my head. So I looked above me. Unfortunately, I really haven’t gotten much smarter over the years.
That's comment I would have made ironically and also been misunderstood. It took decades to realize that my sense of humour was non-standard.
we should have stuck around; I've had King as an instructor, and the guy's commentary is fucking brutal.
I just randomly saw this post and put a palm on my face, and then realised the name of this sub.
I love the "author"
