"Today, I Told My Girlfriend . . .

[L O V E L I F E]

Today, I told my girlfriend that I gave some woman, who I just met at the supermarket, her peas.

I probably should have just written that to my girlfriend instead.

Don't sweat it amigo!


If it weren't for people like you giving out aids, I probably wouldn't get half these jokes.

ll, i don't understand how this joke works in practice as part of a standup set, especially given that the words are heterographs - do people, when they hear "herpes" think "her peas" and make the connection?

for me, it works on paper but not out loud.

I love the unconscious connection there to the subject. Giving out AIDS when talking about giving herpes. Awesome

Same here.

I've never told it from the stage, and I never intend to.

For the exact reasons mentioned.
