Oh I get the joke
Set up:
- These two are in a relationship
- They have a lot of pets
Punchline:
They neutered all their pets
A real price is right fan would not need help.
Why does that sound like a threat?
I’m getting more “want me to use 'em?” vibes from the guy’s smirk.
She “yes use them on me” pulls out scissors
It takes balls to smile like that.
Plot twist, she is trans and this is actually an inside joke causing him to smirk back so hard.
I’m confused, is this a joke about the person being trans and not having their testicles removed yet or did I totally read this wrong?
It’s a joke that the long-haired person might be trans and had their testicles removed previously.
I’m not sure that was the original joke, but works quite well.
Pretty sure it’s originally meant to be a joke about all their pets.
Wouldn’t she have said “their” instead of “his” if that was the case
She’s talking about him in that sentence and is referencing something owned by only him and not the whole group, so “his” is correct.
Unless you think testicles are family property, of course. Then grammar would somewhat become a free-for-all here which only teachers would survive.
No, they’re saying the speaker is trans.
Actually this is the interpretation I got lol
I read it as she just had an orchi lol
My life, exactly.
Until my wife grew a pair. And then another pair.
And then another pair
Alright, I am intrigued
I think he has two sons
That’s a bingo.
That is more clever than I am apparently
…for now
The dog on the guy’s lap is clearly unhappy about it.
Maybe he just really wants walkies and there are currently no walkies
— Oh Scoob, I’m so sorry! I thought they were going to fix you a sandwich!
— Shaggy, where are my testicles?I don’t get Americans. If you can’t deal with having a whole pet, why would you choose to maim it instead of simply not having it?
Americans aren’t the only ones who do this, though it is high in America. As for why, there are benefits for doing so. People have to weigh the benefits vs the detriments and their beliefs, but the US already has a large stray/feral issue. Choosing to just let them roam can also endanger other lives, as cats kill so many birds.
Some of said benefits: https://www.bpah.net/blog/top-9-reasons-to-spay-or-neuter-your-cat
You can have a pet mutilated almost anywhere, but vets don’t usually push it in other places and its therefore done to a minority.
Why are you conflating it with letting cats roam? Very different issue.
Where as to actual, scientifically backed benefits, it boils down to not having gonad cancer. Which is also true for humans, but you don’t see doctors recommending us to have our own removed. The idea that we would mutilate ourselves to avoid a disease that might show up is ludicrous to us, but apparently the opposite is true for animals.
I don’t think y’all are ready to look yourselves in the mirror that hard though. Because if you convince yourselves you’re wrong, there’s no undoing or even saying sorry. And so it’s easier to just keep on mutilating them pets.
My cat hasn’t been neutered,and I haven’t been a pet owner before now (family has, sure, but since I was never in control there I don’t even know if they were), so no, your last assumption doesn’t apply to me.
As for your middle one, we do stuff like that to a somewhat lesser degree all the time. People have growths removed, and some people have surgeries to remove things that may cause issues in the future but aren’t necessarily doing it now, like removal of wisdom teeth. We can technically add in plastic and cosmetic surgeries, as some can prevent future issues, like breast reduction or weight reduction surgeries. They aren’t sex organs, which usually are only removed once they are already an issue, but that’s often due to society not wanting to accept that.
They used to castrate boys to make Castrati, but nowadays that can be done with puberty blockers and the like, plus doing it on someone before they can make informed consent is known to be bad. You can make an argument about the same for animals, though others would point out they can’t even give informed consent for stuff like dewormer medicine.
There are definitely people who want and or wanted to make permanent changes to their sex organs, from gender affirming care to just not wanting to have or cause pregnancies, which one could argue is preventing a possible future condition.
I gave an answer to your question, but you didn’t want an answer. You have a moral stance you feel you are right on, and you just want to shame others. Not everyone has your same moral stances, and all of your moral stances are not objectively correct. Neither are all of mine. Some are subjective.
There’s a lot of projection in your comment. So I’ll limit my response to that. Either you yank out your gonads with your pet and put your money where your mouth is, or I’ll keep on ignoring your hypocritical opinion.
Cat gonna spray, can’t get that smell out of whatever it’s on, gotta trash it. It’s not piss, piss is better.
I’m so glad you shared an image ripped from Facebook using a screenshot so that we can all experience the extra overlay that darkens the bottom half.
Just in case, here’s the copy posted by the artist themselves:
Thanks for the better image, shame you had to be so cunty about it.
This kind of problem has persisted long enough people should be cunty about it, because politeness has gotten nowhere.
Especially when you look at this user’s post history and see a pattern of this exact laziness.
If the artist name was cropped that’d be one thing but clearly there’s no ill intent
No, just laziness and ignorance.
Some people don’t know about the magical right mouse button.
Or found it on mobile and didn’t have access to right click
I found the original post via mobile. Tap and hold is effectively right-click.
Just because your mom didn’t love you as a child, doesn’t mean you need to lash out at the world, kiddo.
Now, who hurt you?
I’m so glad that you’re being such a passive aggressive cunt about it!
Has it occurred to you that the reason I credited the author in the title is probably because I couldn’t link the actual content?
No. Probably not.
But thanks for being such a fantastic knight in shining armor M’Lord Gofsckyourself.
Perhaps if you don’t like people pointing out that you shared a poor copy, you could put in the minimal effort it takes to get a better copy. Reverse image search does not require any special skills to use, nor does searching the artist’s tag. It literally took me less than 30 seconds. Less than the time it took for you to write out your reply.
Also, I suggest growing some thicker skin, cause you lashed out pretty childishly, kiddo.
You know that there are ways of providing links to OC without being a cunt, right?
For example you could’ve said:
"Hey! I found the link to the author’s page if anyone wants to check out the rest of their work. "
But no, you had to be a cunt.
You sweet, sweet, summer child.
You care way too much. Just move on, little guy.

Look who’s talking, baby girl.
I fucking love this cat
That’s my cat! Give him back!
Ceci est mon chat maintenant
My void when he’s dead set on playing with the flower bouquets
Angry blackhole.
I had overlooked this handsome cat, thanks
What did they do to little Billy?!?!?!
This is too well-drawn to make no sense
5 neutered pets, one post bottom surgery trans woman.
What doesnt make sense to you? Everyone in the picture is a biological male and everyone except the bearded person had their testicles removed. The red hair might also be on estrogen considering the hint of tiddies.
“biological male” more like biological hand on biological forehead, this phrase is mostly used by queerhaters and TERFs, FYI
Ah my bad. I meant “originally had balls, but got them snipped off”.
I don’t think it’s your bad? Isn’t the whole point of trans acceptance acknowledging that someone can be born male but realize they are actually a woman, making a distinction between sex and gender?
Seems like you’re being attacked unjustly because you lack their perception of purity.
I never read it as an attack, just as a warning to avoid that terminology (which is fair since it is kind of weird and confusing/improperly defined to my knowledge). When I read ‘biological male’ it did scare me a little but the rest seemed fine so I see no reason to be upset personally.
Or even be a cis woman.
the “still” made me think that the red haired one also had them at some point
I did get a vasectomy though.
Especially because they sell fake dog balls-- is it really that much harder to do a dog vasectomy?
After a vasectomy you can’t have sex for two weeks and when it’s healed you have to get tested to see if it was successful, because sometimes the snipped parts grow together again.
Nobody wants to jack off their dog to get the sperm tested. Besides that, removing the testicles had a 100% succes rate and also causes dog to be less agressive and territorial by removing the source of testosterone.
Me, but instead of saying that to some dude it’s my pet rodent
That smirk is throwing me off. Why smirk over the pets?
This is layered. First thought is all the pets are fixed. Second is she finished transitioning.
Because he’s… the last man standing.
I thought it was a trans joke at first yeah, like a “for now…” smirk :D
They got robbed and since he was on a business trip his testicle jar wasn’t stolen from the cupboard.
I see you too are a fan of linear puzzles.
Who hurt you?
Oh wow I thought it was about bearded guy planning a vasectomy lol
You know they dont remove the testicle during a vasectomy… right?
Yes, but a joke in a comic strip doesn’t have to be exactly accurate, does it?
No, but it does help with the flow of the joke. If you have to make that kind of leap for the joke to land, it’s a bit arcane and won’t reach quite as many people.
As someone who has had a vasectomy, can confirm. What they do is to disable the sperm making, while leaving pre storage intact, by only cutting the spermtube.
The deferens between those operations is vas
You cheeky bugger…
Story time, and yes, it’s topical. Twice.
One summer a whole bunch of years ago, I was on my way to my vasectomy appointment, wife is driving because they won’t just “let” you drive yourself home. (And no, you don’t want to drive yourself home.) The last stoplight before the medical center is out, completely dark, stop signs folded open. Huh.
We park and go in, and it’s dark inside, just emergency lights on. Ohhh … power is out. Man, now I have to reschedule this and do the whole “get my gumption up” thing again. Go up to the office to figure it out.
Get to the office, they have a desk lamp on the counter, apparently plugged into the emergency circuit. It’s the only light. Explain why I’m there, and that I’ll probably need to reschedule. Doctor calls from the side, “We’ve got enough light back here, we can do it today.” Well okay, lfg.
Get on the table, there’s a big ol’ stand fan behind my head, the big fat round kind on a tall pole stand, like you’d see in a Catholic grade school in the 1980s, and it was 20 years old then. HVAC must be down, doc needs to stay comfortable. Again, must be plugged into the emergency circuit. Nothing else is powered.
Now, this fan is doing wonders for the doctor, and nilch for me, so I ask for a wetted towel that I can use to keep myself cool. I’m kind of swiping my head and face as the doctor is working. When the towel gets too warm, which happens almost instantly, I unfold it and hold it way up into the breeze of the fan to cool it down again, and then back to wiping my brow. Lather, rinse, repeat, all while the doctor is snipping my junk. It was like getting a vasectomy in a M/*A/*S/*H unit.
The second part of this story is how many years after that, I came down with testicular cancer, and one of 'em had to be evicted.
Tell me more about these folding stop signs? Are they automatically deployed when the power is out? Never seen such a thing, spent my life in Southern California.
No, they’re manual. they have a horizontal hinge on them, and are folder shut and padlocked, mounted to the traffic light posts. Bastards can come unlock them and set them open as necessary.
… I hate to victim blame, but there were so many red flags…
I hate to victim blame
Not enough to not victim blame, apparently. And I don’t even recall posturing as a victim of any kind.
I explained why I went forward with it. Getting up the gumption to go get it done that day was an obstacle, and if I didn’t have to overcome that obstacle again, that was better. That was my choice, and I made it, and I would make it again in the same circumstances.
Unless you’re victim blaming for the cancer.
Hell of a story though damn.
Who did you piss off? 😳
Testicle Jesus, apparently.
Is that PugJesus’ alt?
Yeah they’re thinking of an orchiectomy
Oh nuts
