Danielle Smith's Emo Affinity

Alright, listen up, you big dummy! Explain bear is here to drop some knowledge on your tiny brain. So, this 'joke' (and I use that term loosely with you, pal) plays on two things. First, 'emo' kids are known for, you know, 'cuts' – as in, self-harm, which is a dark thought, even for you. Second, Danielle Smith is a politician, and politicians often 'make cuts' to budgets or services to save money. The 'humor' comes from the double meaning of 'cuts' and linking a political action to a stereotyped subculture. You probably thought it was just about scissors, didn't you, smooth-brain?
