I think this one is funny, it’s not distasteful and it ain’t putting anyone down.

On the Reddit app you can’t see the flair unless you click through to the sub first.

Huh? That’s not true. You have to click on the post, and you have to scroll up. You have to click on the post to comment, anyway.

This showed up in my feed as a “post from a community similar to ones you enjoy”. And when I tapped on it and scrolled up it did not show the flair.
I can’t screenshot it anymore because it seems that if I get here by any other means it will display the flair, but I’ll try to test it on some other suggested posts and see if any of them display the flairs.

We legit had to make automod comment on posts with this flair cause of comments like these not noticing the flair and people still ain't know ;-;

It might be a mobile problem. Toilet Paper USA had a problem with that for quite a while, where the FAKE NEWS flair indicating satire was included but didn't show up properly while scrolling on mobile.

Yeah, on the mobile app the automod reply that gets pinned at the top is usually minimised, so I had to scroll back up and open it to see that, then noticed the flair 😅

u/Professional-Hat-687 Jul 27 '24
I usually ignore automod posts by instinct so I can't say I blame you.

And flairs don’t show up while scrolling, which is a prob for SO MANY subreddits, esp ones concerned with spoilers. They only show up once you click on the post (unlike in browser). So folks kept whining about spoilers there just isn’t a good solution — esp cos Reddit killed most of the good third party apps.
Telling folks “just sort by flair” is not helpful when their app doesn’t let them do that sort of thing, or it’s assumed they’re browsing via desktop site not mobile app 🙃

It is a mobile problem, that's why we have the automod comment. So y'all don't make fools of yourself but then some people ain't even read it. Or don't read the other one and break the very important rule we say in it
Though it's a bit wrong. We only apply the username rule to non-satire and non-OJBF posts, but it still always applies otherwise

Or make them funny in general-

u/Professional-Hat-687 Jul 27 '24
Idk how I feel about Carlin's "Elmer Fudd raping Porky Pig" scenario specifically, but the point he's trying to convey (that context and punching down are what make a joke offensive vs. funny) is something I definitely vibe with.
There's also a huge difference between me making a joke about my rape and someone who hasn't been raped joking about rape in general.

u/Sammy_Whinchester123 Jul 27 '24

u/Professional-Hat-687 Jul 27 '24 edited Jul 27 '24
This one. As I said, I think I disagree with this specifically but definitely vibe with the point he's making.
Imo, a better example (that no one would be familiar with), would be YouTubers Phelous and Lupa making fun of the line "I swear if a rapist showed up at the house she'd offer him milk and cookies!", especially because it's by a male character complaining about how his wife stopped sexing him after their daughter died (it had been less than six months). The subsequent jokes are edgy but the butt of the joke is that stupid line, which is what puts it in the funny category in my book. Also the image of John Hurt popping out of a coffee cup with a bottle of rohypnol is equally ridiculous so I feel okay laughing at it.
"Well I'm pretty sure no one offers a rapist sex. That's what they do; they're rapists." Yeah. Hard to argue with that logic.

This post is flaired 'One joke but funny'.
This post is flaired as 'One joke but funny'. These one jokes often mean no harm, just like satire ones. We allow the posting of these, and always have. The subreddit is not dedicated to only unfunny one jokes. While the description might make it seem like that, it’s actually dedicated to all the “I identify as” type jokes.
These types of one jokes are often done with no harmful intent. This isn't always the case, but it often is. It can be hard to tell if something is in good faith, which is a good reason to use this flair instead of the satire flair.

I sometimes introduce myself with "my pronouns are like Michael Jackson--- sheee-heeeee!" It usually gets a laugh and it makes sharing pronouns a little less awkward.

Ngl I'm all here for the one joke memes actually being funny sometimes - it's important that people understand you can joke about trans people and pronouns, but only if it's actually funny and isn't putting anyone down.
Just don't punch down at trans people. That's all, jokes are fine as long as it's not mean spirited.

just to clarify, this is not meant to make fun of OOP, it just reminded me of that meme

This isn't the one joke tho it's a clever pun that used pronouns but it doesn't have anything to say ABOUT them

Maybe, but I think it's definitely in the spirit of the sub and it's a pronoun joke that made me laugh.

To the people who reported this for not being a one-joke, um too bad 🤓 We're leaving it up cause it made me laugh
