I’ll explain the joke bc I don’t want anyone to take it the wrong way:
Explanation
The joke is literally that her name when pronounced kinda sounds similar to “Anomalocaris” (which is the name of the animal).
Thats the entirety of the punchline.
I wonder how high OOP was when they discovered that lmao
Peter, I’m scared. The jokes been explained but I still don’t get it.
(phonetically) “A-NA-ma-la care-iss”
Sounds like Kamala Harris
I mean, I understood the concept… I don’t get what makes it funny. Indeed, OOP must have been incredibly high.
Words that sound like other words are funny. A lot of humor is about setting up an expectation and then subverting it. The set up is the picture, but then the words subvert that expectation by describing it as something that sounds similar but is very different.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but if I got the joke but it did not resonate with me as funny, over-explaining it is just making it less and less funny.
Congratulations, you have killed the joke.
Though, upon reflection, it’s probably my own fault for thinking people would understand that I referenced Peter because my joke was that there was no way for Peter to explain it and for it to be funny.
Was it funny to you? Some things are funny and some things are just subverted expectations without humor
I’m incredibly high and didn’t even toot air out of my nostrils.
Seems like it’d work better if you made a limerick out of it. Gilbert & Sullivan got a lot of mileage out of the fact that multisyllabic rhymes are kinda funny.
There was a young woman from Paris
Who voted for Kamala Harris
She …
And …
But not with Anomalocaris.I dunno, we’d have to fill in the blanks.
What’s the joke? I can’t remove the spoiler on sync.

This looks like Yawie from Dave the Diver
