    Staying a virgin is easy. Just develop a shitty personality or maybe even a personality disorder like I did and viola, you are now a forever virgin.

    However, living as a virgin is much more difficult. Between self-loathing and depression, you could turn suicidal. Again like I did.

    I regularly flew kites from the campus yard in college (many moons ago). It was just something I had enjoyed doing with my mother who had died during my senior year of high school. I was never called a virgin for it, but I did get laid a lot thanks to it. It’s a wholesome conversation starter plus I think it made me approachable. Thanks mom.

      I get more of a school bully vibe from it. The stereotypical old person joke is “wife bad”, this sounds more like something a self-described “alpha male” would say.

      A comeback to likely piss off said boomer since they are probably homophobic too.

      Gen-X here. Can confirm that “virgin”, " nerd", and “<homophobic slur>” were preferred punch lines by the boomers.

      This kind of joke pre-dates the internet.

      What’s the hardest part about <rollerskating / insert any hobby>?

      Telling your parents that you’re gay.

      This joke just switches homophobia with virginity shame.

    It’s hard to make time for sex when you are learning how to fly a kite from its tail. The man is defying basic physics right there.

    The moral of this comic is the last pane, where the hobbyist goes back to doing what they enjoy and the other guy is still a miserable, lonely cunt.
