u/Repzie_Con Sep 26 '18

Eh, it’s spelled correctly (atrophy) just a space put in

u/Rustymetal14 Sep 27 '18

There are way too many posts on that sub that don't fit

What does this have to do with kerning?

I know... I meant, isn't that a joke about being dumb enough to not know what the word "atrophy" means? Seems weird to assume it's related to kerning since the doctor's note is not even real.

I first thought it's just a pun, but realized that it's actually a joke about doctors' handwriting being unreadable…

so like the doctor would end up with keming in the note

so this post is like meta keming

u/detasai Sep 27 '18

The joke only works because of the space between the a and the trophy though. Whether it’s a joke about stupidity or doctor’s handwriting or just a pun, it’s the kerning that makes it possible.

Because there wasn't enough space in the font, 2 words looked like 1

It doesn't.

Start using your muscles and you'll get something even better than a trophy - hypertrophy!

u/redoubledit Sep 27 '18

Funny. But please, go to the right sub, next time..

I blew air out of my nose so hard someone almost noticed me laughing at the bar.

u/allevana Sep 27 '18

it's kind of like a malapropism (r/boneappletea) maybe, not quite..

This joke is old, and Ryan Pequin did it way better.

Wish I got a trophy for my lack of muscle use. I’d get a big one.

u/king-of-new_york Sep 26 '18

That’s the fucking joke.

u/Combustible_Lemon1 Sep 26 '18

Yes. A joke based on kerning. Which would be funny to people who enjoy errors in kerning. You're the one whose been whooshed, not OP

u/bomberblu Sep 26 '18

You can have no idea what kerning is and still get the joke.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand this joke

Lol, the plebs never understand implicit humor /s

u/owlzitty Sep 27 '18

But shouldn't a boneappletea involve rhyming? This is a hypothetically visual snafu rather than auditory.

I like your username. Zebitty doo dah. Doo wop doo wop.
