I did laugh. And it is humor. But the “if you get stung by these bees / you’ll probably catch AIDS” did press my homophobia button. We know they’re gay because it’s two ripped guys (and no women in sight)? We know they have AIDS because they’re gay? And I guess “get stung” is slang for “have unprotected sex” ? I mean, come on — unprotected sex? — Look what those guys were wearing on their heads.
Agreed…that one rubbed me the wrong way a little too. Happily, each picture moves by fairly quickly, and the not-so-clever captions are forgotten and replaced by the ones you keep repeating throughout the day. For me it’s been “boobie petunias.” (even if they really are pansies.)

🙂 I guess for me it was the “um, those puzzle pieces don’t go together.” Alright, and “Nom-Nom-Nom-Road” was kind of funny, too.
