@A0den Okay, let’s assume you’re right for a moment. The way the lyrics sound out, it’d be written somewhat like this:
“For every dollar a man makes, a woman makes seventy cents. That doesn’t make sense, that’s note fair: the man’s only left with thirty [spare].”
In other words, the lyrics point to the man as being left in the lurch, not the woman. So how is it not fair to the man to be making thirty more cents than women? And don’t say the man’s a feminist.
@3genpai Also not trying to start a fight, but Glanzern was right, you’re not.
Also, it has nothing to do with females taking males paycheck, because previously he says “for every dollar a man makes, women make 70 cents, thats not fair” thats not implying that woman take their boyfriends paycheck, thats implying how the government system is, they still treat women unfair,
example: if a man and a woman does the SAME job, same work, same qualifications, same everything..
man makes, lets say, $1.00
the woman would be .70 cents..
@3genpai As I said, he cuts it off, THAT is the joke. And no, I don’t personally believe men deserve more money than women, but im saying thats the joke..
he even has the rhyme before “that doesn’t make sense.. that’s not fair, the men is left with 30….”
that alone doesnt make sense if the joke didnt IMPLY “men is left with 30 spare.”
what he is saying, man makes a dollar, women make 70 cents, its not fair because men should be left with more than 30 spare, thats the joke.
@A0den “Spare”? Where did that come from? I’ve seen almost all of the uploaded videos of his shows, and even at a video’s clearest I’ve never heard him say that.
And how do men deserve more money from women?
I’m going to stand by my translation of the joke: women “steal” seventy percent of their boyfriends/husbands’ paychecks for personal use, often without asking. That is the punchline, a sexist remnant of the ’50s, when women couldn’t work.
@3genpai he was saying “the mens only left with 30………..spare”
thats what its supposed to be, he leaves out spare as a joke because its insulting to women… hes saying men deserve more of women’s money…
@Glanzern Sorry, wrong punchline. “The man’s only left with .30!” …Meaning the woman took her .70 cents from the man’s dollar.
@Glanzern Sorry, not the right punchline. “For every dollar a man makes, a woman makes 70 cents”, meaning the woman took the 70 cents from the man, which “only leaves the man with 30…!”
@fashnek No, crows and ravens are notorious for there being a lot of them. Which means that they don’t like using condoms? As in they have unprotected sex…haha.
@placeablink Women make less money than men do In the United states. Roughly 70 cents to every dollar a man makes.

can you explain that part. i dont get the joke about woman make 70 cents or w.e
LOL 2:35 CONFUSED FIREMEN! LOL
if it’s one thing bo burnham is not is completely random. he says random things, but everything he says makes complete sense.
o.O
“Women can fake orgasms, but men can fake love”
Hahahah It’s funny cause’ it’s true:)
confussed firemen! haha how does he comes on with this stuff?! I love him
thats the joke, they don’t use them hahaha
The line about Puzzles absolutely slayed me.
I think it deliberately doesn’t follow any logic, meaning you’re not supposed to draw conclusions like that. You’re just supposed to be thrown off.
selllout101, the part where he says, “Men are like ravens and crows, ’cause they hate using condoms.” He says that because there are a lot of ravens and crows, and if they enjoyed using condoms, there wouldn’t be so many. Hope that helped.
The fact that it doesn’t make sense is ironic. It just rhymes with fingers and toes, but the randomness of condoms is supposed to create an element of surprise.
they dont.. lol
I was wondering the same thing.
i dont get the ravens and crows part? since when do birds use condoms
