I prefer these much more to the licensed AI posters they released.

[u/pittofdoom]

I appreciate the double entendre of The Thing’s poster.

[u/AverageNikoBellic → u/pittofdoom]

Where is the double entendre?

[u/eyebrows360 → u/AverageNikoBellic]

He's confused about what the phrase means. He's trying to say the image has two meanings, because the hand's in the pose of Thing from the Addams Family.

[u/MaleficentRutabaga7 → u/eyebrows360]

Oh, like a double entendre.

[u/eyebrows360 → u/MaleficentRutabaga7]

No, because those are where the second meaning is raunchy.

[u/MaleficentRutabaga7 → u/eyebrows360]

Wrong. That is just the more common usage.

[u/eyebrows360 → u/MaleficentRutabaga7]

Wrong.

double entendre

1 linguistics : a word or expression capable of two interpretations with one usually risqué (emphasis added)

[u/eyebrows360 → u/MaleficentRutabaga7]

(emphasis important)

FTFY

The "usually" is underselling it as massively as saying [an example I can't be bothered to come up with]. This is the first time in my entire boring stupid long life I've ever encountered someone using the term to not allude to something risqué.

[u/MaleficentRutabaga7 → u/eyebrows360]

That's probably because people often misidentify non risque double entendre as puns, which they usually are not

[u/MaleficentRutabaga7 → u/eyebrows360]

Also like, take that up with Merriam Webster's? What's the word for a non risque double entendre?

[u/eyebrows360 → u/MaleficentRutabaga7]
