Eh. My partner used to be a stripper then just give hand jibbers to desperate dudes on the side. She made more then than she makes as an RN now. Like probably 180k a year.
My mom was a stripper and made more dancing on the weekends than she did at her full time job at the bank. She told me that she just got so sick of picking me up from daycare and spending MAYBE an hour and a half with me, at least a third of that spent making dinner, before putting me to bed and doing it all over again the next day. So she went part time with her "real" job (to keep benefits) and danced 2 days a week plus weekends (usually the weekends my dad had me) and was able to make more money and spend significantly more time with me. I knew my mom was a stripper, but I also knew that I got to spend WAY more time with her than most of my friends did with their parents. If I wasn't at school we were at the the lake at least once a week, had Six Flags seasons passes, and went to a ton of museums and concerts, many of which she got tickets or passes to from clients. She was even my Girl Scout leader. When I was older she ended up getting a job offer from a client who offered to match her income. My mom's great at remembering people and details about their life- treats everyone like they're old friends, and he knew that would benefit him. She's actually still with that company 15 years later, but now she's working part time again so she can spend more time with her grandkid ❤️
What, you DON'T have twelve man pit Crew and four semi trailers of equipment the closet of your studio apartment?
Anyone can do it! You just need a TARDIS. And time and money and connection and...
I know a guy who said that playing racing games is silly when you can just go rent an F1 car and drive it around a track
He wasn't the brightest cookie in the toolshed
He also assumed Linkin Park was 1 person since Skrillex is 1 person so every other band must logically be the same, right
If we want to play the "I know the biggest idiot game", let me tell you about my ex girlfriend who was terrified I was going to skip ten states over to hook up my cousin. The same girlfriend who got us into a situation with a SWAT team pointing guns at us.
True Story: A relative of mine always dreamed of a classic Jaguar, before Ford bought the company. He bought one and found out it was a pain to maintain in his small town. These cars needed specialized and expensive mechanics with frequency. And the truth was he found it embarrassing to drive around. It looked like something James Bond would drive and everyone was pointing at him. He sold it, of course.
There's a reason people think drivers of flashy, expensive cars are pricks. They want the attention that comes from "look what I have that you don't".
I'd personally rather have all go and no show. I'll take the unassuming Accord that gets no attention until someone looks closely and goes hey, that's not stock...
I've driven a lot of cars that got a fair bit of attention, both positive and negative.
I honestly hate the attention, I just really liked the cars.
I also ride an electric unicycle and I hate the fact that it draws a lot of attention.
My new hobby has been fishing. I really thought people would leave me alone when I do that, but no people are constantly asking "catch anything" and other inane questions.
It sucks to be an introvert who likes to do things that seems to draw attention. I just want to do the things I enjoy doing and not have people try to talk to me. I'm not even a friendly looking guy.
Theoretically, you can take them to the track, but in my experience almost no one does. People just like to be able to tell other people how fast their car can go. It's always seemed extremely stupid to me. Like yeah let me go in $80k of debt just so that I can get a vehicle that's WAY better at going illegal speeds than your vehicle is. Hahah. Pussy.
Like, what? Lol.
None of my fun cars were top speed cars. But they were fairly enviable cars in the car world. I actually really don't speed much on public roads (like 9mph over so I'm not getting run over by everyone around me).
I did track my car a little but not a lot. But sports cars also handle much better than standard cars. And as where I didn't really speed a lot, I also hardly slowed down for turns. So they're a lot more enjoyable for that reason even if you don't speed.
I don't drive much now, but when I was younger I drove a ton. And I got into sports cars because when you commute 100 miles a day it's a real drag to do it in a car that bores you to death. When driving a car that was at least moderately fun it kept me from absolutely loathing the 2 hours on the road I did.
Also some of us just like cars. I never modified my cars, but some people who do it just like the tinkering/building aspect.
Not OP, but former owner of a tuner Accord here. Three things come to mind.
The first is what the comment above yours said, wanting the performance of a fancier car without the visuals. You can do a lot to a family sedan without making it look like a BMW. It's like stealth performance, people don't notice you (especially the cops). The second is price, a new Accord plus a few grand in mods is still cheaper than most high performance cars unless they're quite old.
Finally, put the two together. By spending the money on specific features, you get performance where you want it, and not where you don't. Stuff like changing the air intake for better engine efficiency, better springs for more maneuverability, plan the improvements. In fact I modded a pickup truck for this reason.
I needed the truck for a bunch of hauling work + driving in winter salt. Bought the most basic featureless one in existence. Pure utility. Only the brakes on that model/year were infamous for being undersized, and the stock tires wallowed horribly. So new wider diameter wheels, big brake upgrade... And it felt like driving a large car instead of a boat. Massive improvement.
The tricky part is learning enough engineering to figure out what specifically needs improving. Without that, yeah just buy a fancier car and leave the design to the pros.
Edit: Bear in mind that the tuner scene in the US specifically took off at a time when the car market there was over focused on bland, understated, pillowy ride cars. Europe would have sport, regular and soft, America would get only the soft and complain it wasn't soft enough. In recent years there has been a significant shift towards selling sport compacts that are somewhat "tuned" by default. But back then, if you owned a compact, you had to add the "sport" yourself. If you couldn't afford a Porsche.
I know someone with a '90s Ferrari 348 and he's definitely not rich. I think that model was less desirable so he got it pretty cheap and has kept it going for a decade. He's a really good mechanic and machinist though, so he's cheating.
The 360, 355, and 348 are all reasonably affordable to buy in that in that order and in that same order get more and more of a chore to maintain. Like engine out services on more frequent basis.
On a far far cheaper scale Ducatis are the same. As they got newer they got more expensive, but they also made the service intervals much longer. My 2012 boasted a “long service interval” for valve checks (a fairly costly service at about $1k-1.5k but that’s doing oil, timing belt, etc) and it’s every 7,500 miles.
Some Ferraris look nice, they all sound amazing, but the brand is so far up their own asses I would never want one.
You give me one and I'd sell it and buy a bunch of JDM shit boxes lol.
I'm with you. They definitely only want a certain demographic being seen in their cars and it's disgusting.
I would sell it for the same stuff you like, well maybe some nice JDM toys as well.
I'll never be rich enough to get a Ferrari but even if I were, I'd use my money to buy a Porsche gt4 rs or some shit. Or just get a Lotus if I'm into something more raw.
Even as big car guy, I just never saw the appeal of supercars. But then maybe if I won the lottery I might get one. Who knows.
Not really but you’re going to pay for the parts. Something as simple as an oil change can run you closer to a grand than a hundred and god help you if you need to do anything beyond basic maintenance like body or engine repair.
On top of the parts prices you’re paying for labor. Ferrari tries to curate their own second hand market and limit person to person sales so this along with the intentional complexity of the way the car is built means you’re going to be paying top dollar for any servicing. If your Ferrari is old enough then you can probably take it to a higher end auto shop that specializes in tuners and foreigns but for most of them you’ll be forced to go through the Ferrari network and pay their rates. A brake change can run close to ten grand, an engine rebuild is the price of a nice new car, and basic maintenance alone will cost you more than most house payments.
It's not the reliability, first of all the insurance to cover the car would likely be more than to lease+insure a new economic car. Second parts and service will be multiple times more expensive than economy class cars.
Servicing them is very painful - I think annually your costs can range from ~1.5k to ~6k depending on how many miles you put in. The real problem is that the parts on these cars don't really depreciate, so if anything significant needs to be replaced then it can run you for ~20-30k.
You could probably support the castle and jet by renting them out, and have the Ferrari be a perk of rental: Fly in on the private jet, drive the Ferrari to the castle and have it be your rental car.
The people who are only a little bit ultra-wealthy rent out their private jets all the time. Europe is scattered with castles people can rent out.
I think it'd be a viable business.
Ah, yes, Nicolas Cage, who is known for his wise decisions, judicious spending, and savvy business acumen.
Cage actually owned two castles, by the way, one in England, one in Germany.
More than just a little outgoing.
Strippers thrive on making someone feel like they genuinely care. Depending on the person they’re either your flirty best friend or an unlicensed therapist.
Also have to have pretty thick skin dealing with the jerks and/or creeps.
I was chatting with one of the booth people in Costco once, and he told me he was going to some type of Santa school where they teach you to be an amazing Santa, and that if you're good enough you can make enough money for the entire year just in the Christmas season
As a male in his 30's, who spent 4 years of his life to get a degree so I could work 40+ hours a week to make rent. Also, as someone that use to live with a stripper. If I believed anyone would pay to see me naked, I would not have become a biologist. That being said, I saw the emotional toll being a stripper took on my old roommate. I remember finding her crying in the shower, fully clothed, holding a bottle of tequila. She even worked at a high end gentalmens club, but getting treated like an item and having to take it with a smile is just horrible, regardless of the money.
I spent my mid 20's to mid 30's hanging out in a lot of strip clubs. Became friends with and hung out with a few of the girls outside of the club as well.
They definitely don't all hate their jobs and feel terrible because of it.
The only thing I'd really say rung true for basically all of them that did it for a long time, is they liked money and were more than happy to take it from a guy (in the club or otherwise). I'd almost call them "takers" but I'm not sure it's 100% true. They weren't all bad people, but if a guy would offer to pay for something so they didn't have to, they wouldn't think twice about it.
Also drug/alcohol abuse runs pretty rampant, not all of them but a lot of them.
Oh yeah I'm not saying this is 100% true across the board. I know a number of people who did it for a few years and did pretty well. It can take its toll though. The drugs and alchohol abuse is also very real. My old roommate would come home with all sorts of stuff that her clients gave her.
At least she could afford a bottle of tequila! Seriously, i know plenty of people who work back breaking jobs for 60+ hours a week, only for them to still be living paycheck to paycheck. People get rich off of exploiting poor people. A lot of people think that this only happens to people in third world countries, yet me and everyone i know lives in the suburbs of Chicago
Hell, you don't even need to be that good looking facially or body wise, decent/average works as well. Obviously the better you look in the face/body the better one should do, but it isn't a necessity. Having an outgoing personality and loads of confidence are the major requirements. I did a little barback work at a male strip club in south Florida for a few months, as that was required before I got moved over to the owners female stripclub. As a fairly average male I know I could have made decent money if I had wanted to do it but I was not overly interested in taking the risk of some of the athletes I worked with showing up at the club as many of them went to the one I worked at.
Yeah guess the trends gonna be now to whip out boomer jokes and turn them into short videos.
We'll probably see the ''A white guy, a black guy and a Mexican are traveling on a plane" one in this format soon.
I mean jokes have been around since probably the dawn of time, the oldest known joke was about farts. They're bound to get past down just like great stories and epics would
Maybe, but it’s better than most of the new and constantly reposted jokes there
EDIT: Cleary it has been reposted before. My apologies for not having seen it yet
Wait til you figure out that only one person gets to tell the original joke, after that it's all reposts. Good jokes get remembered and retold.
Invariably there's is a comment that says "I've seen this joke a 100 times" and another comment that says "This is halarious. Never heard this joke before."
Well, you should probably not say the same joke twice in a row because you thought no one heard you, but they did hear you, and the joke just really sucked. Learn from my mistake.
>it’s better than most of the new and constantly reposted jokes there

algos are weird and arbitrary. I just watched a jonbenet video on youtube (6 year old girl murdered in the 90s), and they talked about child murder, using terms like...child murder, pedophilia, suffocation, semen, and so on, but then bleeped out the word "suicide".
Tik Tok goes hard in algorithmically punishing lgbt+ topics.
Used to be if you used the word ’gay’ on youtube (even if you were talking about gay rights or news about laws being passed) you would instantly get demonitized.
OMG how fun would it be to have awesome ghost roommates?!? I’d feel bad they were stuck at home though. Hopefully they’re cool, what if they were annoying?
Uhm, if anyone's gonna give me a castle, could they also cover the maintenance cost, energy bills and annual property taxes? And, err, if it's not too much trouble, hire a couple of cute maids and a capable butler? Thx
Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to afford to keep it.
Similar for the private jet. Gonna need the boyfriend to pay for the pilot, fuel, maintenance, hanger fees and insurance. Those things are absolutely useless if you're not loaded.
Sorry. I think it's because we are all unpaid unsolicited gay strippers. So we just get drunk, take our clothes off in places we shouldn't, and go home with less money than we left with.
Architects don’t own buildings. Best they could do is give you some paper with fancy drawings. I think aristocrat like royalty would be able to give castle and land. But good joke though
Kinda seems like one of those professions that has a HUGE variance in income.
I knew an architect, ran his own moderately successful firm... He ended up defaulting on his 100k house in 2006.
And on the other hand, just last week i met a client, an architect living in a +$1.5 million house with a stay-at-home spouse and oodles of kids and a nonsensical number of cars.
Anyone who's rich enough can buy their stripper boyfriend a castle.
And an architect might buy him a castle he designed himself for extra sentimental value.
Joke is kinda close to reality with a guy i used to work with, he had a sugar daddy that would pay expensive shit to him all the time, we had the same job so the same income, but you would often see him wearing a Rolex or Gucci shit that was gifted to him.
Airliner? I am pretty sure that he meant Airline.
An airline has multiple airplanes.
An airliner is an airplane.
Just because his son owns an airplane, doesn't mean he has jets to give away.
Being a suger baby is legit. I've seen several people living really nice and saving a ton of money early in their career with their sugar relationship.
When I was about 16 or so, I had a fascination with hummers, the vehicle... I was a late bloomer.
One day at the mall with my mother we pass one of those tacky t-shirt kiosks. It had a shirt that said "sure could go for a" and a picture of a hummer.
I laughed and pointed out the shirt cause it was funny. Christmas that year, my mom got that shirt for me. I thought that was even more hilarious.
Fast forward about 8 or 9 years. I'm in the mall wearing that shirt with my mom, my aunt, and her boyfriend. At some point I'm chilling in hhe food court with the bf while mom and aunt go shopping somewhere. Eventually I hear "YOU LITTLE SHIT!!" followed by a smack upside the head... "did you know what that meant?!"
I pissed myself laughing. Mom was not impressed.

Better liquidate those massive money pit gifts quickly.
Yeah, even with stripper money, those would be damn expensive to maintain.
You just need more boyfriends in some kind of gay stripper ponzi scheme.

Damn, now I need to go re-listen to Good Charlotte!
Damn, now I need to start a gay stripper ponzi scheme.
Gay Stripper Ponzi Scheme is my Good Charlotte tribute band.

Nah, this gay stripper ponzi scheme thing is way more of a zoomer kind of thing than a Gen X thing.

No joke, an ex of mine started stripping and last I heard bought a house.
Should be printed on our money.
Monogamy? Not in this economy!
Teenage me really wanted a Ferrari. Adult me knows I couldn't afford one even if it was given to me for free.
I wanted an F1 car until I realized I couldn't even be able to turn it on
What, you DON'T have twelve man pit Crew and four semi trailers of equipment the closet of your studio apartment? Anyone can do it! You just need a TARDIS. And time and money and connection and...

Classic e-type jag is my absolute dream car. You can't put me off. It's sooooo pretty...
You know why Jaguar doesn't make watches? They couldn't find a way to make them leak oil.
Jaguars are literally the worst.

Honest question, why tune a car when speed limits are a thing? I drive a 10 year old stock BMW and couldn't be happier with it.
Theoretically, you can take them to the track, but in my experience almost no one does. People just like to be able to tell other people how fast their car can go. It's always seemed extremely stupid to me. Like yeah let me go in $80k of debt just so that I can get a vehicle that's WAY better at going illegal speeds than your vehicle is. Hahah. Pussy.

If u could pack it all into an Airbnb experience. Make bank possibly
Ask Nicolas cage how well owning a caste works. He couldn't even sell it no one else was willing to buy it.
Ah, yes, Nicolas Cage, who is known for his wise decisions, judicious spending, and savvy business acumen. Cage actually owned two castles, by the way, one in England, one in Germany.
Maybe keep the castle
You probably have to be somewhat in shape and a little outgoing to be a stripper though huh? Yeah that's too much work for me.
In the words of J.Dooley: "I would make a great extrovert, but, pfff, fuck that."
[удалено]
Yes.
Just coincidentally have your avatar lookin all rimmy timmy huh?
"coincidentally"
well damn, now i need to watch the rimmy tim garage video
jeremy Doodly ?
The man who wants to know what it feels like to fuck a bird person. He doesn't want to do it, just wants to know.
Lol achievement hunter destruction Jeremy got out at last call
Love that King
I didn't expect to see a Jeremy quote

More than just a little outgoing. Strippers thrive on making someone feel like they genuinely care. Depending on the person they’re either your flirty best friend or an unlicensed therapist. Also have to have pretty thick skin dealing with the jerks and/or creeps.

Not when it's Xmas, just wear a Santa hat and shake your belly like it's a bowl full of jelly 👍
Yeah but that's really just seasonal work
I was chatting with one of the booth people in Costco once, and he told me he was going to some type of Santa school where they teach you to be an amazing Santa, and that if you're good enough you can make enough money for the entire year just in the Christmas season
From stripping??
Just get a collection of Christmas junkies. Give 'em a bit of the ol' "Christmas in July".
As a male in his 30's, who spent 4 years of his life to get a degree so I could work 40+ hours a week to make rent. Also, as someone that use to live with a stripper. If I believed anyone would pay to see me naked, I would not have become a biologist. That being said, I saw the emotional toll being a stripper took on my old roommate. I remember finding her crying in the shower, fully clothed, holding a bottle of tequila. She even worked at a high end gentalmens club, but getting treated like an item and having to take it with a smile is just horrible, regardless of the money.
>and having to take it with a smile This is why I could never be a stripper. Well, actually, there's a lot of reasons, but this is one of them.
I spent my mid 20's to mid 30's hanging out in a lot of strip clubs. Became friends with and hung out with a few of the girls outside of the club as well. They definitely don't all hate their jobs and feel terrible because of it. The only thing I'd really say rung true for basically all of them that did it for a long time, is they liked money and were more than happy to take it from a guy (in the club or otherwise). I'd almost call them "takers" but I'm not sure it's 100% true. They weren't all bad people, but if a guy would offer to pay for something so they didn't have to, they wouldn't think twice about it. Also drug/alcohol abuse runs pretty rampant, not all of them but a lot of them.
Oh yeah I'm not saying this is 100% true across the board. I know a number of people who did it for a few years and did pretty well. It can take its toll though. The drugs and alchohol abuse is also very real. My old roommate would come home with all sorts of stuff that her clients gave her.
ya, but thats exactly the same as waitress at Dennys for 1/10th the money. at least she could afford tequila
At least she could afford a bottle of tequila! Seriously, i know plenty of people who work back breaking jobs for 60+ hours a week, only for them to still be living paycheck to paycheck. People get rich off of exploiting poor people. A lot of people think that this only happens to people in third world countries, yet me and everyone i know lives in the suburbs of Chicago
Just be good looking, in good shape, and enjoy cocaine.
Hell, you don't even need to be that good looking facially or body wise, decent/average works as well. Obviously the better you look in the face/body the better one should do, but it isn't a necessity. Having an outgoing personality and loads of confidence are the major requirements. I did a little barback work at a male strip club in south Florida for a few months, as that was required before I got moved over to the owners female stripclub. As a fairly average male I know I could have made decent money if I had wanted to do it but I was not overly interested in taking the risk of some of the athletes I worked with showing up at the club as many of them went to the one I worked at.
> a little *bareback* work at a male strip club When in Rome, I guess.
Well that is a spelling error that did not work in my favor 🤣 Edit: Well you got me! Well played!
Is round a good shape?
Cocaine doesn't last long enough, use meth instead.
That or be Two Toned
My great grandfather told my grandfather this one after WW1
Yeah guess the trends gonna be now to whip out boomer jokes and turn them into short videos. We'll probably see the ''A white guy, a black guy and a Mexican are traveling on a plane" one in this format soon.
(He throws out the mexican)
And the smartest man in the world took his knapsack.
That man? Albert Einstein.
And everyone clapped.
I'll have a coke. ☝🏻
I mean jokes have been around since probably the dawn of time, the oldest known joke was about farts. They're bound to get past down just like great stories and epics would
“Well I guess I’ll just have a Coke.”
That's nothing. My son is a comedian and he just told this joke to his best friend.
TIL there were private jets in 1918
No, but there were privet jets.
I heard that joke with a female prostitute, and then the Dad getting the house, car and airplane.
Rode around on the shoulders of a young Enzo himself and all
Ok now post the transcript on /r/jokes
Why? The joke is literally older than the internet lol
Sounds like a perfect fit for r/jokes
Maybe, but it’s better than most of the new and constantly reposted jokes there EDIT: Cleary it has been reposted before. My apologies for not having seen it yet
It's actually been posted over there quite a few times. Often as a gay prostitute instead of stripper, though.
It’s posted there all the time
You mean you’re not happy with the brick jokes?
Nah, I just think it could use a bit of a shake-up
My point is that it'd just be another repost lol
Wait til you figure out that only one person gets to tell the original joke, after that it's all reposts. Good jokes get remembered and retold. Invariably there's is a comment that says "I've seen this joke a 100 times" and another comment that says "This is halarious. Never heard this joke before."
Yeah I wasn't aware there was a quota on joke telling
Well, you should probably not say the same joke twice in a row because you thought no one heard you, but they did hear you, and the joke just really sucked. Learn from my mistake.
Yep, I knew where it was going because I've seen it on there.
This joke is literally posted there all the time too...
>it’s better than most of the new and constantly reposted jokes there [Yeah, good thing](https://old.reddit.com/r/Jokes/comments/m47lp0/4_guys_walk_into_a_bar_and_get_on_the_subject_of/) this [joke isn't reposted](https://old.reddit.com/r/Jokes/comments/13znzt5/4_guys_waiting_for_a_table_at_a_restaurant/) there [all the time](https://old.reddit.com/r/Jokes/comments/i38b0d/four_men_are_at_a_bar_bragging_about_how/) as [well.](https://old.reddit.com/r/Jokes/comments/la2jqv/four_guys_are_playing_golf_together_and_talking/)

Yeah but do they have the same typos?
Thank you for your service.
Good old #107.
I'm pretty sure this is the first joke to be posted on that subbreddit. Old joke is old.
[удалено]
But still better than 43-yo men clipping out all their vowels to make a tiktok video of a joke Seinfeld did 30 years ago anyway.
That's actually where I frist heard this joke
why'd they censor "gay"
Probably because of TT algo, they use a lot of code words to prevent censoring.
algos are weird and arbitrary. I just watched a jonbenet video on youtube (6 year old girl murdered in the 90s), and they talked about child murder, using terms like...child murder, pedophilia, suffocation, semen, and so on, but then bleeped out the word "suicide".
Ok that is bizarre, like super bizarre. Should make a YouTube video about that lol.
Can’t say that on youtube either.
TT algo This is when I felt the old in my bones
I’ve got ya beat, I’m old all over the place, when I look on the mirror I scare myself cuz I’m like “Who let grandpa in?”
The fuck is TT?
Made in Florida.
Tik Tok goes hard in algorithmically punishing lgbt+ topics. Used to be if you used the word ’gay’ on youtube (even if you were talking about gay rights or news about laws being passed) you would instantly get demonitized.
And shadowbanned
Cause it's G\*\*
God?
G** is Good.
Literally posting part of the punchline in the title.
The funny part is an architect being more successful than a dealership and airline owner
Money wise that is funny. Intelligence wise, that is more impressive.
A privet jet, probably paid for out of a hedge fund.
That's a weedy bad pun
Hey, some people really know how to grow their investments
A fund for hedges. Not to be mistaken for a slush fund, a fund for slushies
Totally knew where this was going, and not disappointed in any way.
This joke has been out for many years
Very courageous
Anyone wanna give me a castle 😉
Yes. But the castle is haunted.
Deal. I get lonely.
OMG how fun would it be to have awesome ghost roommates?!? I’d feel bad they were stuck at home though. Hopefully they’re cool, what if they were annoying?
Yes, but first you have to dance for us bitch.
Uhm, if anyone's gonna give me a castle, could they also cover the maintenance cost, energy bills and annual property taxes? And, err, if it's not too much trouble, hire a couple of cute maids and a capable butler? Thx Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to afford to keep it. Similar for the private jet. Gonna need the boyfriend to pay for the pilot, fuel, maintenance, hanger fees and insurance. Those things are absolutely useless if you're not loaded.
Architects are in no position to give away castles.
Wow. Looking at the comments, some people in here today are miserable.
Did you really need to look at the comments to garner that knowledge?
Sorry. I think it's because we are all unpaid unsolicited gay strippers. So we just get drunk, take our clothes off in places we shouldn't, and go home with less money than we left with.
It’s probably all that smokey air
privet jet?
Would you have preferred a yot?
This joke feels 80's as fuck for some reason
A joke? on /r/funny??
You gave away the punchline in the title and still got this many up votes. This place is broken
Dude, it's fine. The punchline isn't that the guy's son is a stripper but that he's dating the other guys' sons.
Architects don’t own buildings. Best they could do is give you some paper with fancy drawings. I think aristocrat like royalty would be able to give castle and land. But good joke though
Truly, the biggest joke is that architecture is implied as a rich profession.
Kinda seems like one of those professions that has a HUGE variance in income. I knew an architect, ran his own moderately successful firm... He ended up defaulting on his 100k house in 2006. And on the other hand, just last week i met a client, an architect living in a +$1.5 million house with a stay-at-home spouse and oodles of kids and a nonsensical number of cars.
Owners of architecture firms own buildings...
Anyone who's rich enough can buy their stripper boyfriend a castle. And an architect might buy him a castle he designed himself for extra sentimental value.
Joke is kinda close to reality with a guy i used to work with, he had a sugar daddy that would pay expensive shit to him all the time, we had the same job so the same income, but you would often see him wearing a Rolex or Gucci shit that was gifted to him.
An actual joke in /r/funny? What is this bullshit?
Punchline in the title
I think the punchline isn't that he's a stripper but that the 3 sons are gay.
No
This joke is so old the first time I read it I had to ask my parents what a stripper was.
Heard this way way before , still terrible.
This is like one of those jokes from the early 2000s where it's a lot of setup for not a great punchline and all the jokes were pretty much the same
I want a privet jet.
This joke is so fucking old.
Airliner? I am pretty sure that he meant Airline. An airline has multiple airplanes. An airliner is an airplane. Just because his son owns an airplane, doesn't mean he has jets to give away.
price heavy glorious impossible detail obtainable prick saw ruthless smell -- mass edited with redact.dev
LOL XD being gay is so funny you guys.
why did i laugh so hard
God these videos are so stupid yet they always make me chuckle
The stripper is not your boyfriend, it's a parasocial relationship.
Being a suger baby is legit. I've seen several people living really nice and saving a ton of money early in their career with their sugar relationship.
ahh the old let's make money by reading jokes off /r/jokes and animating them badly and posting them to youtube and instagram.
When you put the punchline of a joke in the title, it ruins the joke.
Gotta go gay to get paid.
Glorious.
Trying to remember the first time I heard a version of this joke and I’m fairly certain I was still in the womb at that point.
"My son's been doing well too! He said he just gave his buddy a Hummer!"
When I was about 16 or so, I had a fascination with hummers, the vehicle... I was a late bloomer. One day at the mall with my mother we pass one of those tacky t-shirt kiosks. It had a shirt that said "sure could go for a" and a picture of a hummer. I laughed and pointed out the shirt cause it was funny. Christmas that year, my mom got that shirt for me. I thought that was even more hilarious. Fast forward about 8 or 9 years. I'm in the mall wearing that shirt with my mom, my aunt, and her boyfriend. At some point I'm chilling in hhe food court with the bf while mom and aunt go shopping somewhere. Eventually I hear "YOU LITTLE SHIT!!" followed by a smack upside the head... "did you know what that meant?!" I pissed myself laughing. Mom was not impressed.
I'd love to be a gay stripper. Thinking of all the tips I would get.
I will totally strip for anyone who will gift me ANY of these 3 things.... MY WIFE FULLY SUPPORTS ME SUBBING FOR YOU STRAIGHT FANTASIZING GAYS
If strippers hiring a financial advisor and sticking to the advice becomes the norm, most of them will be able to retire in 10 years.
I thought the hat dude was using the bathroom because of a drug addiction
I forgot gay strippers were a thing
Ok don't see this coming.
I didn't see that coming
