This joke is a pun, which is a form of humor that exploits the different possible meanings of a word or words that sound alike but have different meanings. The key to understanding this joke lies in the play on words involving “wafer” and “away for.”
The joke sets up a scenario where a baby cookie is sad. The punchline reveals that its sadness is due to its mother being a “wafer so long.” This phrase sounds very similar to “away for so long.” In the context of cookies, a “wafer” is a type of thin, crisp cookie. So, the joke is making a clever play on the double meaning – the literal interpretation that the mother is a type of cookie, a wafer, and the implied meaning that the mother has been absent or “away for” a long period, which would be a common reason for a child (or in this case, a baby cookie) to be sad.

This joke relies on a play on words involving the term “flow,” which has multiple meanings in different contexts. In the realm of hip-hop and rap music, “flow” refers to the rhythm and rhyme style of a rapper, particularly how smoothly they deliver their lyrics over a beat. A “mean flow” in this context would suggest that the rapper is exceptionally skilled or has a very impressive style.
Simultaneously, the term “flow” is colloquially used to refer to a woman’s menstrual period, where it describes the physical process of menstruation. The joke combines these two meanings: it describes a female rapper who raps only during her menstrual cycle and suggests that her performance is particularly powerful or aggressive (“mean”) during this time.

This joke is an example of a double entendre, where a phrase is used to convey two meanings, one of which is often risqué or inappropriate. In this case, the joke plays on the two different interpretations of “loading the dishwasher.”
In a literal sense, “loading the dishwasher” refers to the mundane household task of placing dirty dishes into a dishwasher for cleaning. However, the joke uses this phrase as a euphemism for a sexual act, specifically ej*culating inside a woman. The humor (which can be seen as offensive and sexist by many) arises from the unexpected and crude comparison between a household chore and a sexual act, juxtaposing the mundane with the intimate in a surprising and shocking way.

This dark joke plays on the dual meanings of the phrase “at a steal.” “Black Friday” refers to the day after Thanksgiving in the United States, traditionally one of the busiest shopping days of the year, known for its significant sales and discounts. Retailers often go from being “in the red” (operating at a loss) to “in the black” (profitable) on this day, hence the term “Black Friday.”
The humor in the joke comes from the expression “at a steal,” which commonly means to buy something at a very low price, as if it’s such a good deal it’s almost like stealing. However, “steal” also literally means to take something unlawfully. So, the joke suggests that the discounts on Black Friday are so substantial that it feels like the items are being practically given away, akin to stealing. Regarding Black individuals and theft, it is a stereotype with deep roots in racial prejudice and has been used to justify discriminatory practices. It’s critical to understand that crime is not inherent to any racial or ethnic group; it’s influenced by various factors, including socioeconomic status, opportunities, and systemic issues.

This joke relies on a play on words and could be considered offensive as it makes light of disabilities. The term “paraplegic” refers to individuals who have lost the use of their legs. The phrase “the place was crawling” typically means a location is very crowded or full of a particular kind of people or thing. However, in this context, “crawling” is used both in its literal sense, as a method of movement for some with severe mobility impairments, and in its idiomatic sense. The word “pu**y,” a vulgar term for female genitalia, is also used as slang term used to insult people who are afraid to take risk.
