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

I think it is a great joke of the Christmas cracker variety. I love daft puns like that -- groanworthy and fun.

Not ageist and not sexist. The hostility in this thread is unbelievably daft.

And so what if other people thought of the joke too? I don't think the OP's DH was copying them -- it is a pun that is just begging to be made, so lots of people will have made it independently

How did the submarine commander know her Nandos delivery was about to arrive?

She saw the Deliveroo boatman through her peri periscope.

II’m confused by your voting options. Cracker jokes are brilliant 😂

I knew a guy that had a real thing about Barry Manilow, followed him round the world, spent months in Vegas for his residencies sort of thing. He even went as far as attaching three big old rotator blades to his head. He was a huge fan alright.
