[OC] harmful

At a company BBQ, Karen from accounting decided to contribute her infamous “toxic” potato salad. She claimed it was her family recipe, but all it really contained was three types of mayonnaise, expired ranch dressing, and a sprinkle of questionable herbs from the back of her cupboard. As everyone gingerly sampled it, we all exchanged panicked glances, realizing that we might literally be poisoning ourselves for the sake of office camaraderie. Yet, Karen watched with pride as her dish got rave reviews from the two interns too afraid to say anything negative.
The unfolding chaos was like a scene from a sitcom—every bite elicited a mixture of grimaces and forced smiles. One brave soul slowly declared, “It’s… bold!” while trying to discreetly shove the salad to the edge of the picnic table. Karen basked in the glory, blissfully unaware that “toxic” was quickly becoming the most accurate compliment of the day. When someone finally mustered the courage to declare, “I think I’m allergic to happiness,” we all erupted in laughter, bonding over the shared agony of their potato salad while plotting for the next potluck—nobody wants to follow that act!

Probably punctured but since the company doesn’t have talkie-walkies… walkie-talkies idk, she had to walk and tell them. She is always angry, but she does her job well… Sad she’ll be gone by tomorrow because she didn’t feel like waiting for lauchbreak to tell them.

Is the joke that the woman doesn’t know that’s a radiation symbol and not toxicity?

It’s two jokes. The first panel suggests that the “toxic environment” is sexist colleagues. The second panel completes the joke by revealing that the toxic environment is a literal toxic environment. Then the third panel re-reverses, confirming that the toxic environment was indeed sexist colleagues.

Sure. Pssp pssp pssp. Come here, darling. D’aww, look who’s grouchy. Well, I bet you won’t be grouchy when I show you…..this treat! Oh, I see what you’re doing there, Mr. Pretending He Doesn’t Want it Because He’s Mad. Mm-hmm. Well, I’ll just leave it here for when you’re ready. Oh stop wailing. Listen, Jake, daddy had a long day. There was this comedian at work, his joke had a reversal. Yeah, I know, lots of jokes have reversals. But his had a double reversal, that’s a reversal after a reversal. Oh, huh, maybe you really didn’t want the treat after all. Well fine, be that way, Mr. Picky Pickers.

I’m ngl pretty sure the joke is that you assume the artist was wrong in panel 2 and then it’s revealed the reason the place actually is toxic is the sexism of her coworkers in panel three. but yeah ig maybe you’re right

It’s a play on words. We think socially toxic and then we learn there’s physical toxins. Lady wearing a hazmat suit would have tipped us off too early for the misdirect. /brought to you by your friendly neighborhood explain the joke service. The obviousness of this joke is rated an 8 out of 10.
