With jokes like this, you're sure to remain celibate for a long time.

The thing that is funnier than the joke is that the majority of people are trying to tell different words where C is pronounced as S. Didn't even get the joke, these people. 😂

Don't know if this joke would work for our special & precious friends across the Pacific ... sorry, Atlantic Ocean who live in cities in the U.K.

It'd be nice not to engage in a cycle of non cents cuz it's not central to the joke, and it comes at a price, & as it perpetuates the argument circle.

I wouldn't wanna censor you this century, but centurion and centennial certainly qualify

You should cease making memes until you have enough information on the topics.

Reading this broke me. Had to lie down and stare at the ceiling for a while.

If I had a cent for every time somebody said this I'd be rich!

Seems like you made this up, could you list your citations?

There are so many more than that. Thus I prefer the sugar/sure version of this joke

The circular centipede in the city near the circus played the cymbal until he sold his celery for many cents

Alright, at first I didn't laugh, but then I did.

I think that’s a pretty casual answer.

And sugar is the only word in the English language that is spelled su, but pronounced sh. And of that I’m sure.

I guess that makes cell space a special place.

60 years ago, my English teacher taught me that C was pronounced as an S when followed by an e, i or y. I believe that it is still valid.

This cynical joke is a cynosure to celebrate on a city's citadel but cycling through this sub next week to see it cited by a cis celibate will certifiably circle around to my two cents of cyanide, Cinderella.

There is centre, central, census. So maybe it could be that if a word starts with CE, then it is pronounced S?
