Yeah after writing it I sort of realised I was pointing out the joke, but we're here now.

Not many situations where you can use the phrase "I've often been born".
I think I've met like four people in my life who wouldn't get this joke.
I went to see a film with my mate just last week at the pictures, and I ended up needing the foreign subtitles, so after it had finished I turned to him and said "could you hear a fucking word any of them were saying?" he said "I was going to say that!" This was the film: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_End_We_Start_From so there are parts where I assume you're supposed to be seeing things through her eyes and she's all discombobulated, but then why have subtitles if that's the case?
This motherfucker when their wife tells them about their day: there was no beginning, middle, or end; the climax wasn't revealed in chronological order; the hero is clearly a Mary-Sue...
Oh, so it is, haha. The date's in the screenshot. I was under the impression it's much older though!
This one's a classic, and I reread it with the same feeling as I get listening to a song I like.
Et tue, Brute?
Seemed a lot bigger when I was 8.
It's in a Jim Carrey film too, I seem to recall.
Bit like that Žižek interview where he says his perfect date involves putting a dildo into a plastic vagina and throwing them in the other room while the two people can sit and have a nice cup of tea together.
I don't think one follows from the other though eh?
