Ages ago, when I was in the army, my best friend couldn't get promoted because his arms wouldn't straighten. It was a super dumb issue which prevented him to properly do a push up, and because of that he could t pass the PT test.
Finally months and months of doctors and paperwork, he receives a waiver and is getting promoted.
Our commander is giving a little speech about follow through and perseverance or something, and he says, "and because of his funny arms"
I immediately blurted out, "Yeah, they're really humourous."
In a crowd of 40 people, I think one person got it. I still think it was my best joke I ever cracked at a moments notice.
That one is so dad it just asked me if I made good time on the way here.
Maybe I'm too stupid but I don't get the joke
Lmao thanks for the explanation.
His arms are funny like comedians funny, not weird funny.
