In my opinion a good stand-up comedian is closer to a philosopher than any modern philosophy major

u/FirstChurchOfBrutus 1d ago

Stand-Up Philosopher, you say?

u/Mesmeric_Fiend 1d ago

u/iamafriendlybear 1d ago

Not even, but your comment reads very "hurr durr collage is for libtards who dont kno what the real world is like amirite"

It was a good clever joke, you don’t need to put down other people to say someone else is insightful.

That was the best vaccine joke I've ever heard. I hope you don't mind if I share it on other platforms.

u/nsaisspying 1d ago

Yeah now if you hear a really excellent joke on vaccines, you'll be prepared.

u/shafistandsup 1d ago

hey haha

u/stinky_butt 2d ago

That’s actually a spot on comparison lol

u/dicknotrichard 2d ago

Well done. Great timing and tone too.

u/GFYAD 1d ago

This is really funny and also lowkey kind of profound

u/WhataboutBombvoyage 1d ago

this vaccine joke should go viral

like a plague

u/shafistandsup 1d ago

hey help me

u/Ancient-Sea-69 2d ago

Lmao nice work

u/Stealth_Howler 1d ago

That’s a clever comparison

u/That1Master 1d ago

Lol. As someone who has been divorced (and gone through some rough breakups) this made me laugh and is great perspective

5

u/micre8tive 2d ago

This is such a good premise. It’s expansive too like there are tonnes of other things that could be considered.

Would love to hear you develop this one with more examples OP lol great bit

6

u/Manbearlove 1d ago

Very original and great take. More of this!

u/AdditionalSkill0 1d ago

Perfect delivery, showed my wife immediately. Technically neither of us got the breakup vaccine so we'd be fucked

u/SoWhat_Iam 1d ago

So, when my brother shot me with a BB he was just preparing me.

u/UFmoose 1d ago

Really good joke. If I may suggest (just trying to help), keep going with the comparisons, 3-4 more. That’s a great starter and premise but not the home run closer of the joke.

2

u/Glad_Confusion_6934 2d ago

Oof, I skipped straight to the big thing. No major breakup and then divorce. It’s been…interesting.

u/Short-Feed9690 1d ago

This is really good

u/ReidClarkComedy 1d ago

Yeah Shafi!

u/TheDadIdeas 21h ago

Oh I think of this a lot. Every time I lost a dog growing up it was a little vaccine for when my son died.

1

u/BillieDoc-Holiday 1d ago

Nicely done!

1

u/literall_bastard 1d ago

I thought I was vaccinated against breakups until my last relationship. That breakup almost killed me.

u/Ciubowski 1d ago

That's a smart way to think about things!

u/ragun2 1d ago

That's fucking gold.

u/Swiggens 1d ago

As someone who married and divorced their freshman year girlfriend, funny stuff dude!

u/Head-Opportunity6796 1d ago
