"You can't even tell a joke any more".
You never could and you still can't. Funny people, however, can and do.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Dara O'Briain did a sketch about all this from a show that I think is maybe 10 years old? But it's all about attitudes changing and people needing to catch up.
It's Dara, so -- you know -- swearing :)

Time really does pass us by, huh? As a massive Dara fan, let me be the unfortunate one to tell you that that special (Live from the Theatre Royal) is 19 years old. It's from 2006...
Eh. I group things in decades so I was kind of right (it's less than 20) :)
It's funny when idiots say you can't joke about transgender people. Trans people and their allies are never done joking about the trans lifestyle & identity. But their jokes aren't just shitty "man in a dress 😅🤣😂🤣😅🤣" type jokes that are both unfunny and malicious.
nor are they "I identify as an attack helicopter 😅🤣😂🤣😅🤣"
"Then why aren't you secured at an airfield?"
"funny you should say that, i actually happen to identify as a Bofors 75 mm Model 1929 so i'd suggest flying as fast as your propellers can take you, lest you get offended by my armor-piercing rounds"
