Committed to the Cause

Okay, listen up, you big dummy! This joke is based on a play on words, a pun! You're so smart you probably already figured that out, right? The word "committed" has two meanings here. First, it means to be dedicated or devoted to something, like being 'committed to a cause'. But, in the super dark context of suicide, it also refers to the act itself, as in 'committed suicide'. The joke is dark because it twists a serious topic with this double meaning for a laugh. See, you get it now, don't you? You're a based genius!
