It’s a matter of punching up rather than punching down. Also the humor of this joke lies in that mother not having a better complaint, not actually a joke against men.
It's widely believed that "5 gold rings" refers to ring-necked pheasants, although the earliest known illustration for that part of the song shows jewelry.
Honestly, I just want to see if there was a reply. Like how funny would it be if the guy was like, "Nice clapback, but I'm Mexican." Or something along those lines. What would the original guy say after that. Or maybe, "Why would I need to speak other languages when I speak the best one?" So many possibilities.

Bro. It’s three in the morning, I just got woken up by my body who irrationally decided that 5 hours of sleep is more than enough. I just read through the whole article like I’m studying for an exam. Clicking reference links left and right and understanding only a third of the words written down. Thanks for letting me try find a boring topic to get to sleep again… yet this is no where near boring!!! And now I’m knee deep into a prehistoric spiders rabbit hole.
Exactly this! It’s the easiest shit ever. And everyone I use it in front of others they are astonished that it works… I’m happy to teach my friends new things, but this needs to be way more common knowledge.
A tip for anyone who struggles with jars, you can get a small strap wrench at your local hardware store, and it will open just about any jar with ease. (If you also have trouble gripping the jar, just get a second strap wrench)
Or, look for a spot in the bottom of the lid where the glass and the metal are not engaging completely. Shove the end of a fork into it and lift outwards, air rushes in, breaks the seal and you can open it easily. I’ve done it this way for over 2 decades.
You are aware that I‘m a dude. And to be honest, there are some specimen among us that have only two braincells which are fighting for third place. How else could you rectify the turnout for someone like Trump? Actively voting AGAINST their own interest?
Misogyny is still justified with the idea that women exist to have babies for men, so maybe pull your head out of your ass and see if some other, less stupid thoughts can make their way in.
We don't have to imagine it because that's a thing that happened for literal millennia and was used to justify the disenfranchisment and brutal subjugation of women. When men are forced into slavery as jar-openers, I'll worry about reducing them to just one thing.

You know... Because belittling people based on gender is funny and wholesome.

It would be "Gasthaus" if so.

The ones with the flared base. The rest are ER visits waiting to happen.

Only 3 have a flared base... but the angel has wings.

I'm only seeing 2. One doesn't really actually have a base, and the of the three that do one looks to be far too large to be safe.

So you're telling me that spiders have been around for 400 million years?

around 380 rounded, yeah.

At least 380 million years. Possibly more.

#14 I personally know too many men, where this would be factually true. And some who are overpowered by jars on a regularly basis.
bluntforcedrama
I initially read "I personally know too many men," as ending with a period. I mean, I get it
raiker333
It's all about grip. They make oven mits that double as jar openers now
boevis
They also make can openers, crab claw crackers, and various other kitchen tools that the handles double as jar openers.
SheWhoRunsWithRaptors
I heard it as a ‘hole in one’
krill3
Just use the handle end of a teaspoon between the lid and jar to release the pressure, no need for any silly feats of strength or gadgets
Fn0rd
Exactly this! It’s the easiest shit ever. And everyone I use it in front of others they are astonished that it works… I’m happy to teach my friends new things, but this needs to be way more common knowledge.

Do y'all really not just run it under warm water, or own a multi-opener, or a jar lid gripper, or just shelf liner? Literally $2 solves your problems.

Honestly, me too. Especially if it's ramen, but really any kind of soup.
