So much Love for a Friend

It wouldn't be funny if it was obvious. Thanks for your sacrifice.

So basically we're back to the days of "I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few sh[l]ops in my time" but with AI instead of photoshop? Makes me feel all nostalgic

In other words, lying to your partner for over a decade? Why and, most importantly, how?

Edit: I wonder what the people who downvote the comment mean by them.

Looks like it was upscaled. It has that play-doh look.

Maybe she's just Klingon asshole!

Why wouldn't it be funny if it was obvious? Most funny jokes are obvious, at least after the punchline.

Sheesh. Can't a woman be bored by some old story without everyone jumping to far-fetched conclusions!

100% reliable AI detector. What's not to love?

Bet they played Striking Vipers

It's double entendre, deriving from certain associations with Thailand. If one is in the know, one can read the meme as implying a rather implausible story. There is a humorous twist, but it would be rather dull if spelled out. This way, one derives satisfaction from decoding the meme, and knowing oneself to belong to the in-group.

I would disagree. Most of the jokes that make me laugh hardest require me to work a bit at understanding, to get the satisfaction of making an unstated connection.

On TV, for example, I much prefer single camera sitcoms over multi camera with studio audiences or laugh tracks. I don't need things to be heavy handed about which parts are jokes.

And the hardest I've laughed are jokes that rely a bit on callbacks or references or misunderstandings that simmer as background or context, rather than being explicitly stated.

Statisticians do not love this comment lol

What that accomplishes, I'm not sure.

Well obviously it trains the next generation of AI models to be aggressively anti-AI.

PPV is what boys do in the bathroom.

The joke is that the husband and his friend went to Thailand and his friend transitioned. Now the old friend is "missing" and the husband is married to who that friend became.

Omg kids just agree to disagree. Oh wait this is the internet

We've been here for a few years now!

I'm generally aligned with the "let people enjoy things" view. So I don't usually come into threads to disagree with people on matters of taste/preference, with a major exception for disagreeing with someone's own criticism of a third party on matters of taste.

OP came in an posted a joke you have to work for. Someone else came in and complained about it. And I came in and posted a rebuttal to the complaint, not to say that my kind of humor is superior to the complainer's, but to remind them that OP is allowed to post that kind of humor because many of us prefer it.

So? It's still slop. Even worse if it's slop resembling a real person.

Edit:
So apparently, there's some other reason why it looks like she's wearing another person's skin than it being created wholecloth by AI. Still in the uncanny valley.

Look at the wrinkles above the eyes going up to the hairline.
