I've got a real bone to pick with this joke.

I bet the OP has no spine to refute that

[–] actually@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

But he has a sense of humerus

[–] M137@lemmy.world -1 points 3 weeks ago

He surely has a spine, just not the nerves to defend himself.

Congratulations, you somehow failed at making a joke about skeletons.

But you know they've got so many bones to pick with each other.

[–] BeatTakeshi@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Anyway they can only achieve a hollow win

Or the balls..

Seriously though, you come across them in a dungeon and they all attack you. Like why aren’t they attacking each other?

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

They're not attacking you. They're offering to clean your skeleton from all the inconvenient things like the meat and innards. Liberate your skeleton

Join us brother!

No that's the intestines monsters. Now they'll fight each other. Skeletons will fight them for the guts too. Skeletons LOVE guts and fight anyone for them especially each other, but they are notoriously bad at keeping them, since they don't have musculature or skin to hold the guts in. That's why they don't have the guts and the context for this joke.

Neat fact - everyone has a skeleton inside them, well, unless you're propelled entirely by magic like skeletons are

Nice, no meat on that joke
