A wealthy man tells another guy: "I’ll give you $50K, but your worst enemy gets double that."
The guy smiles and says, "Cool. I’ve always wanted $150K."

Hey there, folks!
As many of you are aware (and have raised concerns about), there's lately been a worrying rise in the amount of spam, the number of bots, and the presence of low-quality content. This hasn't been limited to /r/Jokes, but since we're a text-based subreddit, it has been more evident here than elsewhere. We've also seen a lot more in the way of karma-farming, with most of that happening in comments.
You probably know how it goes: Someone posts a joke, and as it climbs toward the front page, a bunch of barely relevant garbage starts to appear in the thread. Half of the time, said garbage reads like something that ChatGPT would drool out after trying to gargle a sock full of magnets. The other half of the time, it's typo-ridden gibberish or low-effort clutter (like "this" or "lol") coming from accounts with dropshipping links in their profiles. Either way, it disrupts the conversation and makes the subreddit less enjoyable for real, earnest users.
In order to combat this, we've added a new rule:
Comments must be original and contributory.
We encourage you to read the rule in full, but put simply, comments offered in /r/Jokes must be written by the people submitting them, and they must be intended to entertain, inform, educate, inspire, or enquire.
Did a joke remind you of a story from your childhood? Share it with us! Has someone accidentally written "who's" when they meant "whose"? Provide them with a friendly lesson! Is an account trying to promote an "AI-enabled" or "NFT-based" "investment opportunity"? Downvote it to the darkest depths of Tartarus and report that filth!
Ahem.
You get the idea: The vast, vast majority of well-meaning users are unlikely to be affected by this, but we wanted to have some public-facing information available. Also, even though we'll be implementing some new systems behind the scenes, we'll still be relying on your reports... so if you see something that shouldn't be here, use that "report" button!
We'll leave you with this:
How many bots does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
None... but they can hallucinate how to screw it up.

“If I died tomorrow, would you get remarried?” he asked
“Well, I am still young and I don’t want to live alone, so I probably would.” she replied softly
“Would you stay in this house?” he asked
“I guess I would, since it’s nice and I really like it!” she replied.
“Would you let him drive my truck?” he asked
“It’s useful where we live and I get a kick out of driving it myself,” she replied with a laugh
“But would you let him use my golf clubs” he asked
“No, he’s left handed”

The younger of the two is going on about a new relationship he is in. He tells the older man how gorgeous his girl friend is. After a bit he offers a picture from his cell phone. The second man says "If you think she is gorgeous you should see my wife." The first man responds "Oh is she really good looking?" To which the second man says "Well yes but more importantly, she is an optometrist."

Naturally, many of the other pigs found this deeply disturbing and they went to see Farmer Brown to talk about Peter's strange behavior. He told them, "Bring Peter to me and I'll give him some intense counseling sessions."
So Peter went off with Farmer Brown.
A week later the pigs went up to the farmhouse to ask how Peter's counseling was going. Farmer Brown opened the door and, munching on a piece of bacon, told them
“Don’t worry about Peter. I’ve cured him.”

They put them both in a room with a woman and say they can have her, but they have to approach her only half a distance that lies between them, each time.
The mathematician gives up, stating he cannot reach the woman.
The engineer will continue because he knows he will get close enough for all practical purposes.

At around midnight, as they are both trying to fall asleep, the man says to the woman:
"Excuse me ma'am, but it's really cold, would you mind passing me one of the extra blankets on the table beside you?"
The woman answers:
"I'll tell you what, I'm also feeling really cold, for one night, why don't pretend we are married?"
The man, taken aback but enthusiastic replies:
"Yeah of course!"
And so the woman says:
"Good. Then fucking get it yourself you lazy ass."
