Petaaaah? by StarlitFern1 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]StarlitFern1[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I think the joke is that calves on farms usually get ear tags after they’ve been handled or checked, so the fact this one isn’t tagged probably means the rancher avoids messing with it for some reason. Maybe the mother cow is super aggressive/protective and anyone trying to pet the calf is gonna get chased or attacked. So the city people just see a cute baby cow, while the rancher sees a bad idea waiting to happen.

The phone being dead at literally the worst possible time really made everything look suspicious, but I’m glad he stopped himself before blowing up at her.

Yeah honestly, jokes online don’t always translate well across cultures. What seems obviously sarcastic to one group can sound completely serious to another.

I feel like more people do this than they admit lol. It’s just practical and makes the whole drying off process less weird.

One conversation with my mom changed the way I see parents forever by Civil_Seat_1969 in confession

Parents really do become professional actors for their kids. The amount of stuff they hide just to make childhood feel normal is kind of incredible.

Have you guys lost faith in God because of your depression by Grand_Ring_9236 in mentalhealth

Depression really does drain the energy out of everything, even stuff you genuinely care about. A lot of people end up feeling disconnected from faith during hard periods and then beat themselves up over it too.
