My Joker cringe story
I’ll keep it short n sweet. I went to community college in a super conservative Tennessee town. I was prob on my second year taking some history class when Halloween came around on a school day. Personally, even though I’m a Halloween fanatic, I didn’t “dress up” for class cuz I did that shit enough in grade school. Nobody else did either cuz you know, community college sucks and we’re just trying to get the job done for the day. Plus it’s a lame conservative town.
But someone did dress up that day…. in FULL Joker Cringe regalia. It was a dude I hadn’t even noticed in class before. He arrived that day wearing a full purple suit, white/red/black face paint, and green temporary hair dye. All of which were runny and gross from him sweating his ass off on this particularly warm Halloween day. But thats not the worst part…. Before class started, he sat at the table closest to the door and took a deck of poker cards out of his pocket, started shuffling them, grinned maniacally, and asked everyone who walked in the room: “Wanna play a game?”
It was not well received. I don’t think the guy got a single compliment or even a laugh. Tough crowd lol.
Oof, I still get the secondhand cringe just thinking about it.
