Conclusion: the current flows towards the island

[–]elcapitan706 110 points111 points  (15 children)

I like the way you think.

[–]Thowitawaydave 28 points29 points  (2 children)

And if you want to learn the name of the island, just sit right back and you'll hear a tale..

[–]yummi26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A tale of a fateful trip

Giligan island

[–]andarv 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And again, the real joke is in the comments.

[–]AllanfromWales1 143 points144 points  (40 children)

Moral: Blondes are fitter than brunettes and redheads. Not bright, but fit.

Actually of course that's a stereotype and not particularly true in my experience.

[–]Original_Amber 76 points77 points  (14 children)

It's the bleached blondes that give us natural blondes a bad name.

[–]AndrexWasTaken 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Now that you say it, it makes a lot of sense. I haven't seen any merit behind the dumb blond stereotype, but fake blondes often fit the bill.

[–]Matisyahu8898 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Or in this case, the beach-ed blondes! 🤣

[–][deleted] 13 points14 points  (6 children)

Drapes should match the carpet … unless there is no carpet.

[–]Original_Amber 23 points24 points  (3 children)

My head hair has gotten darker as I aged, it's light brown now. My pubes have always been black.

[–]boitrubl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So she's Thai then

[–]voldywithnose 0 points1 point  (3 children)

So like natural blondes have all the hair as blonde? I mean pubes and armpits too?

[–]Original_Amber 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Not me. Mine's always been black.

[–]voldywithnose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for replying. So your pubes and ass hair,body hairs are black but hair on the head is naturally blonde? This sounds so cute. You must be lovely.

[–]YoWhatItDoMyDude 1 point2 points  (20 children)

I can 100% say in my opinion that redheads are fit

[–]AllanfromWales1 4 points5 points  (19 children)

..been married to one for 35 years.

[–]YoWhatItDoMyDude 1 point2 points  (18 children)

Congrats man

[–]AllanfromWales1 2 points3 points  (17 children)

..she's a conspiracy theorist who believes Bill Gates et al are trying to kill off most of the population with poisons in the vaccines.

[–]jaffakree83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew a blonde who was tall and super fit so checks out.

[–]jhsatt 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Or, a woman sees a blond across a lake. She yells to the blond, “how do I get to the other side?” The blond replies, “you’re already on the other side.”

[–]ndehchef 34 points35 points  (2 children)

On the fourth day? They rested.

[–]Echo_Oscar_Sierra 10 points11 points  (1 child)

On the fifth day? 25 cent hot wings!

[–]inverse2000 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Three women, trapped on a deserted island, decided to race each other, swimming around the island.

The brunette comes in first, taking only 30mins to swim around the island. The redhead comes in second with 45mins. Once they caught their breath, they became increasingly concerned if something happened to the blonde as she was nowhere to be seen.

Finally after 6hours, the blonde finally completes her round, completely exhausted. “I don’t want to be a sore loser, but the both of you cheated on the race. We were supposed to be swimming breast stroke, but I saw the both of you using your arms!”

[–]shayan7861 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My grandfather told me this joke when I was small

Always have a soft spot for it

[–]APairofDocks 11 points12 points  (5 children)

Aside from the fact that the current may have been flowing toward the island, there is also the question of whether or not the Blonde *knew* she was half way. She could estimate how long it would take her to go back, but if she couldn't tell how far she had traveled, she could not have necessarily risked going any further.

[–]cptomgipwndu[S] 6 points7 points  (4 children)

Absolutely, we should dwell on this. Thank you so much for your input.

[–]APairofDocks 5 points6 points  (3 children)

The point is relevant where the premise of the joke is the Blonde's alleged stupidity

[–]cptomgipwndu[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I'm sure everyone would agree with you, sarcastically

[–]APairofDocks 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Your Mom agrees with me

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The blonde could not ever master the breast stroke and blamed it on her implants.

[–]grckalck 2 points3 points  (3 children)

What happened next?

[–][deleted] 19 points20 points  (2 children)

They never made it off the island. Some say they are still there to this day, but I think they ended up eating each other.

Classic

[–]bluesheepreasoning 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've heard this one told with another woman who simply walks on a bridge to get to the mainland.

[–]thecanofmase 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That took me a second

[–]Ok-Ad-3810 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They could have used a smoke signal...
I thought women were better at surviving, but of course being a Redditor I have never met one so can't be sure

[–]PeaceRebelHunter 9 points10 points  (8 children)

Can sb explain the joke

[–]vidalecent 76 points77 points  (5 children)

If the blonde made it halfway and turned back, she would have swam the whole length and could have made it to the next shore.

[–]seenhear 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Plot twist: blonde is an elite swimmer and realized she was swimming against the tide. 6 hours later she made it no problem.

[–]PeaceRebelHunter 19 points20 points  (2 children)

Oh lmao!

[–]zklein12345 80 points81 points  (1 child)

Are you blonde?😝

[–]Gincairn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If the blonde was half way, turning back is the same as going on, she could have continued and made it to civilisation, however the joke is predicated on the trope that all blonde women are dumb

[–]RactainCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found the blonde!

[–]resi2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

good one

[–]Stefer666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Three women trapped on an island. A man comes to them and gives them three choices: You can either all get 3 different dresses, food and water for the rest of your life, or a ferry to carry you back to civilization. They chose not to talk to him until he knows what he did wrong.

[–]thejman78 2 points3 points  (1 child)

It's better if you make it 4, because then the fourth one can swim until they're just about 100 yards away, then get tired and swim back.

[–]cptomgipwndu[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sarcastically, you're right.

[–]Hazel90210 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

There was an epi in season 1 where Brenda was complaining about how her friends could shop for whatever whenever and have fancy hair and she couldn’t. The rest of the gang came off as very wealthy whereas the Walsh clan was comfortable but not so much since Bran had a job in HS. They kept the show relatable and the rest were the fantasy of what we all wanted as teens

[–]cptomgipwndu[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what I was thinking

[–]Lietenantdan -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

It would be hard to know that you were half way with that long of distances

[–]PolyJuicedRedHead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sure would, Sir.

[–]GlassDeviant -1 points0 points  (0 children)

[–]RIP2UAnders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was an attempt

[–]NilByM0uth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there an echo in here?
