“Why is sex on a cliff edge so much more enjoyable?”
“The sheep pushes back on you!”
–Told to me by a Welshman
Is he fucking the sheep or something?
Hercule poirot over here.
At your service, Monsieur.
Yes.
A timeless classic.
Found the sheep.
Why the sheep of all animals btw?
It originally comes from interactions between Welsh peasants and English landowners.
A lot of sheep were raised in Wales, on farms owned by the English. Stealing sheep was also a capital offence. Landlords would often just hang the thief from the nearest tree. Even if they didn’t, the judges were all English appointees.
There was a loophole however. Having “canal knowledge” with an animal was dealt with by the local priest. That priest was generally a local Welshman, and would deal with the sin FAR less harshly than theft. The English landlords were quite disgusted by the spate of incidents they were catching red handed.
The joke about Welshmen fucking sheep has lingered into modern times, and even been transferred to other groups who keep a lot of sheep.
So when a thief was caught, they’d quickly pretend to not be absconding with the sheep but to be getting to know it biblically?
Pretty much.
The English landlords were horrified, and wanted nothing to do with such acts. Meanwhile the Welsh would laugh at the stupid English for falling for it, while buying the local priest a pint or 2.
It’s usually sheep or goats in this type of joke, probably because they’re fluffy, small and everything is, well, easily accessible. Pigs might also work anatomically but they’re mostly associated with being dirty (which they’re not really but we’re not talking about high-brow entertainment here). Cows and horses are too tall and also can seriously hurt you.
… I am not advocating in favour of raping sheep or goats. I’m just explicating why they seem to be “obvious” victims. Also, in reality, people have stuck their penises into any available vagina.
pigs also can get aggressive too.
Pigs also aren’t hot. Sheesh
/s
That sounds reasonable, thank you
people have stuck their penises into any available vagina.
So do animals
Tha… W… Y… Yes. True. I suppose.
Because they are such goddamn teases. They want it but they will make you work for it.
So damned tiring.
I have you tagged as “smart”
Thank you for not disappointing
You tagged me wrong.
So they can say:
“I want ewe!”
But do they call him Seamus the wall builder? No the fuck they don’t.
But ya fuck one sheep…
It was a goat, last I heard, maybe Seamus is getting fancy
Haha yeah it was
Noooo of course not.
The sheep lies!
Guess that’s why they don’t call him the fence-maker.

This is a classic joke and old as hell. The comic artist deserves the credit for drawing it, but none for writing it. And a quick scroll through the link you posted shows that he doesn’t have any comedic talent.
I do really like this joke though.
Jeroom is one of the most popular cartoonists in Belgium, he presents multiple TV shows too.
A lot of it just hits different in Dutch, even though it’s the same joke. Guess it just shows how different humor can be around the world.
I thought you were just being mean, and I kinda still do a bit, but I do see what you are talking about. Some of them are really just punching down and others I’ll say… Aren’t for me. Very few diamonds in that rough.
Yes, I was being mean. I wouldn’t want the artist to read my comment and just feel bad. But I meant every word, those are some of the worst “comics” I’ve ever seen.
I also wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest if these are AI-generated to some extent. Real artists tend to have a style, but here every single comic is completely different, you’d never guess they were all made by the same person.
The rest are nowhere near as funny, unfortunately.
You are 100 % correct. I looked at a handful of them and they kind of just sucked…
I kinda like this one:
This one I actually find slightly funny. Just because of the deadpan delivery. But a bunch of others were not funny at all.
Edgy humour is a difficult thing to get right, get it wrong and you just come off as mean.
They didn’t get it right.

Please can someone eli5 for me I’m too dumb
He’s Welsh.
He can’t be Welsh, that’s a blue sky and there’s not a sheet of sideways rain to be seen.
Life, uh, finds a way.

He fucks the sheep
Me, a 5yo: haha, you said a bad word
Scottish humor.
That is so baaaaaaaaaah-d.
In a similar vein:
Michael Dell’s wife Susan is doing the dishes when Michael walks into the kitchen with a two-headed pig under his arm.
“Look at this abomination I must have sex with.”
“Filthy CEO! Fucking barnyard animals!”
“I was talking to the pig.”
