    I can understand that. Norm was a guy that went heavy into sarcasm and irony in his jokes.
    Reading the text as is would make you understand it differently if you didn’t know him.

      You’re right, I don’t know him, but I still think you’re making up a deeper level of humor that wasn’t intended.

      “Luckily the good guys have won every single time” is a very direct jab at historians always casting themselves as the good guys.

      You’re all up in here like “wull ackshually this is a post modern commentary on feminism because he’s used the gendered phrase ‘guys’ and you just wouldn’t get it because reasons”.

        I already told you it’s ok if that’s what you think. I don’t see it as “deep humor”, for me it’s pretty obvious.

        The last part of your comment is a straw man fallacy. Also, I don’t think I’m the kind of person that bends over backwards into cognitive dissonance just to defend a joke, chill.

          Oh man. The last part of my comment is a joke. Im mocking you. You seem like you’d be really fun at parties. Go shitsplain jokes to someone else.
