โItโs Fridayโ
The times are rough.
The first order of business is asking everyone to ease off the "I was going to tell a ____ joke, but..." format for a while. Too many are reporting those as reposts. I like them, but there is the "comedic rule of 3," so maybe we can lay off telling them for a while. That goes for various permutations of this setup as well. So let's try not to wear others' punderwear.
Next, we have an issue with too many reporting things that are not in violation of either our rules or site-wide rules, and falsely accusing power users and karma-getters of being spambots. Our overall policy is not to remove high-karma posts unless they are actual commercial spam or are told at the expense of marginalized groups (per Reddit's sitewide rule #1). Please do not use the Report button as a "super downvote."
Then, there probably needs to be a reminder to try avoiding the "one-joke" style of puns. I like them, but Reddit doesn't like them (sitewide rule #1) and they are outside our rules too (rule #7). I wish we could host those here as I find them funny, and I don't appreciate folks who are overly thin-skinned. The Reddit admins seem to have a zero-tolerance stance against such jokes/puns, even if there are no hateful motives underneath.
And of course, I want to remind the users here that they are just awesome! Without you, this sub would not be what it is.
If others want to make puns about this below, feel free! And as always, have fun!
I wasnโt suited to be a tailor and the muffler factory was just exhausting. I couldnโt cut it as a barber and I didnโt have the patience to be a doctor. I wasnโt a good fit in the shoe factory even though I put my soul into it. I got fired from the cannon factory. I had a paper shop but that folded. I just couldnโt see any future as a historian and being a plumber was just too draining.
Edit: thank you for all the outstanding suggestions of how to move forward in the comments.
The cold shoulder.

She knows all the short cuts.

I turned to her and said: Do you want to have sex honey?
No, she answered.
So i said is that your final answer?
She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, 'Yes'!
So i said, then I'd like to phone a friend.
โฆIโm slowly getting over it
Because theyโll give you the cold shoulder
He thinks it was a funfair dismissal.

But it seems finishing it out is going to take more brain power than I can mustard

He was crossing the road and got caught in a crack
Cause traffic is a nightmare on Elm Street.
Now shes just my uncles widow.
It was already 8:10.
I know it's just a stage he's going through
All that time gone by, and nothing to chauffeur it...
I guess I'm on the right subreddit after all!
They replied โNo, but your hat is on crooked.โ
His friends gave him the cold shoulder.
