You’re probably right. I don’t know my monkeys very well.

Clearly, for the orangutan is an ape!🤦

/s, just teasing, although it IS an ape, just like my mother.

I always thought explaining the joke made it so much better.

I find it's more effective if you really lean into it. Break the joke down into parts, then explain each part, then explain how it all works together. It's easily five times funnier.

Joking aside, this is exactly what I do when people make tasteless, offensive jokes or when I want someone to go away.
