Give Them The Clap

[Theblip]

8pm tomorrow, everyone outside your houses, clapping for petrol station staff

[Bobbisox1]

Why would we do that?

[Mamyalynne]

That's very kind of you, stay out there an extra minute for me please.

[237SJ]

They have probably shut up shop and gone to the pub.

[cashier]

Who on earth thinks up these ridiculous ideas?

[pastafreak]

Are they national heroes already??

[Mamyalynne]

Theblip does Cashier.

[237SJ]

"Who thinks up these ridiculous ideas" The Western world - who are overcivilized and have nowhere else to go

[Mamyalynne]

You mean Theblip hasn't made this up?

Anyone have a link?

[-SharonA-]

Whyyyy!???

[Theblip]

It’s not particularly funny.
Why would petrol station staff be viewed in that ironic fashion?
Now the people they have been serving who’ve closed so many of their stations, that I could understand

[Jackdaw33]

WhenI hear of someone giving others The Clap, a round of applause is not the first thing that springs to mind.

[Theblip]

The pun was intended, jackdaw

[bednobs]

i can see why you didnt put it in jokes now.
im not really a "getter" of jokes, but i cant see how that pun works, and if you have to explain it, it's probably not all that funny
