Inappropriately Funny PostSecret Posts
Quick disclaimer: This post is predicated upon the idea that all PostSecret postcards are inherently funny— that the idea of sending an anonymous postcard about your personal problems to a blog is funny in and of itself. Because it’s so incredibly lame.
If you don’t share this view, this post will seem particularly obnoxious to you. Otherwise, it will be just regularly obnoxious. With that in mind, here are a few of this week’s most inappropriately funny PostSecret Postcards.
Hm. This seems like a really sad situation. My condolences regarding your loss.
But: “The Most Amazing Man EVER”? Ever? OK, fine, that guy does look pretty amazing. Dig how his shirt matches his bike— and dig the facial hair grooming. (The sunglasses are kinda lame, but two out of three ain’t bad.)
Alas, if only a shirt/bike color match an amazing man made. But this man is not the most amazing man ever. This man is the most amazing man ever. Sorry :(
Ah, ha ha! See, this one is already funny!
But, as a healthcare professional, wouldn’t it be more exciting to see a woman’s penis on an x-ray? Like, medically speaking, wouldn’t that be better? Because, you’ve specified how much you enjoy seeing mens’ penises… But, what if— yeah, OK, OK. It was unnecessary to write “man’s penis” because women do not have them. I am hilarious. Next.
Wait… what?!
OK, hold on. Whoa whoa whoa.
I have so many questions about this, but I fear that typing them all out makes me sound weirder than this PSPC— which would be tough but honestly for me it’s doable (no pun intended there).
(Sample questions: How is this girl copping so much Plan B? Why is “every time” emphasized? What sort of mailman is delivering this mail without being like “WTF??” If you’re being molested, and feel the need to send anonymous mail, doesn’t it seem like your postcard should say: “My uncle Tony is molesting me. A lot. He lives at ______” and maybe it should go to the police/Dr. Phil/Maury? If you can get a hold of Plan B because you’re scared about virgin pregnancy, wouldn’t it be more cost-effective to just get birth control because you’re scared of virgin pregnancy?)
Anyway, suffice to say, I’m scared too! But somehow I’m still laughing. Am I a “bad” person? Is this not at least sort of funny?
*Shaking it off* … OK. Maybe not. Whatever. See you next week for another installment of Inappropriately Funny PostSecret Posts.
