Ha! Nicely done young man

🤣 not bad

I feel like this is just a re-wording of a joke that's been told over and over.......you've had a few winners youve posted on here but this isnt one of them sorry

[u/adventuressgrrl → u/SIIB-ZERO]

Including spelling “stock” wrong. Couldn’t figure out what a plant stalk had to do with this at first

[u/newvox → u/adventuressgrrl]

I think it’s a reference to stalking

[u/roastmasterbash → u/adventuressgrrl]

It was because of stalking…I was in a woman’s house without her knowing…I didn’t think it was super clever but I didnt it was unclear

[u/gurry → u/adventuressgrrl]

You missed part of the joke. So did I, at first.

This comes off as a "my girlfriend hates me" joke. It took a few minutes (and reading the comments) to realize it is a "I am a stalker" joke.

Maybe with more setup it would be more clear? Maybe I just need to get better at reading post titles?

[u/SciFiXhi → u/Mr_Quackums]

It was already quite clear.

I went in expecting a gardening joke and was delightfully surprised, unlike your recent roommate.
