    Have we meta-ironically circled back to ‘ur gay’ -style humour?

      There are really only two types of referential humor: yo momma jokes and ur gay.

      “You’re adopted”? Yo momma joke

      Circle game? Ur gay

      You’d think “Does your mother know…” would be a yo momma joke, but it’s actually ur gay.

      Only assholes have. Kinda like the “hurr durr Republicans crash grinder” is somehow socially acceptable as a “ur gay” joke too.
