Go on I'll bite.... Where's the joke here?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago

I think the joke is it's a bunch of large gals in sequin dresses, and the sign suggests they epitomize British nightlife. Which may or may not be accurate, I'm unsure. But either way, it's a poorly formatted joke.

Did you not see the sign or are you determined to be offended?

Are you able to explain what you were trying to joke about?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

I'm not sure anyone was offended. TIL overweight British women in sequins was some sort of meme. I think most people were genuinely confused.
