They're also proud of their other son, the sanitation engineer.

But they disowned their daughter, who took a job at Mopcorp

It's like nominative determinism but for appearance

lugal@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Appearance is a social construct. In the modern day and age, you can take hormones and do other stuff to change your appearance

GlitchyDigiBun@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Mmhm! Yep. At least half of these words are English.

Nominative determinism: destiny based on names

It's just a phase. Once Big Dental has used him up until he burns out, he'll do the most degrading painting work. If he's lucky, and doesn't end up in shoe cleaning or worse.

What it's like to be a square because you didn't want to imitate the chaos your hippy parents put you through chew 5 gum

Why did the mother brush have to have hairy armpits?

trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world · 37 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Sorry, is this anthropomorphic paint brush not fuckable enough for you?

TheControlled@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I'm going to be optimistic and think that that it was more about what the message of hairy armpits is (stereotypical), not fuckability.

Because artists must be mocked as dirty, unkept hippies. This trope has bothered my family of artists and I for years.

For you new people. Artists look like your dad, or your school principal. Sometimes they look like hippies, but most people (not all!) who dress the part are not artists and very likey posers or hangabouts.

This was drawn by an artist

TheControlled@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 2y

Indeed.

I meet someone once that made a point to never cut their armpit bush for some reason. I don’t know they seemed to treat it like some ideological mission… it was weird but like as long as you don’t stink?? I guess you gotta buy armpit shampoo or smh

I think that laser hair removal is sane and modern way to deal with this stinky stuff

Guess someone should tell the father... or hand him a DNA kit.

ripcord@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 2y

I feel like they're more like haircuts, and the kid could be a hairbrush or anything if he wanted.

lugal@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Also tell the mother while you're at it

Instead everyone gets a subtext of "who did she cheat with?"

Edit: not everyone, just me.

The floss back there isn't.

Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 2y

Ngl, I thought that was a school backpack wearing a school backpack at first 😆

Successful_Try543@feddit.de · 4 pts · 2y (3 replies)

At least in English.

And humans are just ears on a head

But I agree with you, I just needed to say that

Now I can finally rest

Sure.

So it would make just as much sense if a steel brush came out? Or a cylinder brush like for your dishes?

What about a broom? Or do brooms not count as brushes?

I think my thought process gets stuck on the fact that the parents both are brushes explicitly for paint, the same purpose but different form.

My brain just wondered how you would get a tooth brush by crossing with a paint brush. Would the 'guy' have to be a dental scraper? My mind honestly went to silly places but apparently I hit a nerve.

Guess you're overthinking a joke

Seraph@fedia.io · -2 pts · 2y

I realized why - it's because this isn't funny at face value.

I like PBF a lot, but honestly, where's the joke here? There's a floss person in the background. Wouldn't this simply be normal in this world?

stephen01king@lemmy.zip · 7 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Thanks to recessive genes, it's definitely possible for two paint brushes to birth another form of brush.

Seraph@fedia.io · 2 pts · 2y

And they said I was overthinking the joke...

ChihuahuaOfDoom@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 2y

Funny enough, I wasn't thinking that at all until you said something.
