What do you call a middle aged woman in Nando's?

[Crabapplepiechart]

Peri peri menopausal.

AIBU to think this is a great joke? My partner came up with it this morning and isn't as proud of it as I think he should be.

YANBU - it's hilarious
YABU - it's only worthy of a cheap Christmas cracker

Can't we have a laugh about ourselves?

Its just a silly play on words, its not the funniest joke in the world but I'm not finding it offensive.either.

Some people on here don’t have a sense of humour.

I’m not offended and I’m menopausal! Dh and I are always making silly jokes about each others ‘issues’ - and I’ve got them in spades.
Some people on here need to calm the fuck down and get a sense of humour!

May be funnier when delivered well but didn’t even make me smile reading it.

I'm a middle aged and peri menopausal woman. What am I supposed to be offended about?

Where on earth have you found this thread is condemning men in general? Bit of an overreach.
It's a bit dull OP. I wouldn't be outraged 🥱 more question my dp's ability to make me laugh which he's normally very good at.
I like the Peri-peri-neum joke above though! No need to preface with "what do you call a middle aged woman" to be funny.

Bless, at least you find him funny

This fits me, I often go to Nando’s, I am a middle aged and peri menopausal woman, not seeing the offensiveness of this joke …. 🤔

oh take a day off

I'm peri and I don't really find it funny but only in that there's no twist or double meaning. I don't get offended at peri jokes. They keep me sane! Not so much when men tell them but I still don't take offence.

I don’t think it’s offensive - I can’t see it being misogynistic or ageist.

But it’s just a bit of a shit joke.

I definitely don’t find it funny 1 bit but I am assuming you and your DH have similar sense of humours if you both find it hilarious.

I don’t think it’s funny enough to be in a cracker, sorry.

Does that mean the OP is Sarah Millican?

We had this in a cracker over Christmas

Not offensive, just a shit joke.

Yes.

Oh dear. If this mildly humorous joke causes so much outrage, I dread to think of the waves of rage that must have crashed over PPs’ dinner tables when the Christmas cracker jokes were read out!

It’s not funny at all and quite disgusting.

gah I voted the wrong way!! It’s brilliant OP!

Oh give over 😂😂

Ahh seriously cop yourself on.

Just a rubbish joke.

Plenty good enough for a cracker. If someone started a brand of crackers that ONLY have menopause jokes, I'd buy.

It's lame and obvious.
So much so that we've done the same joke in our family before now. Not offensive though, just a bit shit.

Yeah let’s all applaud a man making fun of a woman.

I thought we’d moved on from that sort of ‘joke’.

The worst crime though, is it’s not remotely funny.

To be fair, that was a lot funnier that OP's husband's joke
