[quote=Anonymous]Ok, here’s a primer on how jokes work, since you said in your title this was a joke, not some “negging” attempt that went awry. A joke is successful if the person who hears the joke laughs/finds it funny. If they don’t, the joke fails. Whether -the person who is telling the joke finds it funny is irrelevant (we’ve all been in a room with someone laughing at their own joke while no one else does). Whether someone on the internet thinks your joke is funny is irrelevant unless you were telling the joke to them. The correct response to this woman was “bad joke— sorry!” And moving on. We’ve all been there. That doesn’t make YTA. Deciding that there is something wrong with her (she’s “petty”) because she didn’t like your joke at her expense is why YTA. [/quote]
