May 9, 2006 · Member. England, English. May 9, 2006. #1.

Feb 10, 2012 · Even with those corrections it isn't funny. There is no apparent joke. There is no contrast. Something like: "As mean as it sounds...the guy who acts like Prince Charming usually looks like Shrek." would make more sense as a joke.
