      I thought everyone knew you couldn’t fall in love until you had collapsed in lust, or at least stumbled in physical attraction.

        I would never normally associate anything positive with the word collapse and I gotta say that I kind of see what you mean, but I’m still not convinced it’s clear wording

    Call me insensitive, but as someone who experienced 9/11 as an adult, being able to enjoy actual funny jokes that reference the attack is kind of refreshing, especially jokes created by the generation born after it happened.

    I have nothing concrete to base this on, but my observation is this:

    • A 9/11 joke written by someone who lived through it is more likely to be about 9/11

    • a 9/11 joke written by someone born after it happened is more likely to use 9/11 to punctuate a joke about something else

    Either way, I find the latter group funnier.
