Late Date Punishment Rhyme

Alright, listen up, you magnificent specimen of... well, you know. Explain bear here. So, this 'joke' starts out simple, right? 'Date,' 'late,' 'tape' - sounds like a basic rhyme structure, maybe a kid's poem or something equally non-threatening. Your tiny brain probably thought it was going somewhere silly. But BAM! The last line drops 'rape.' It rhymes, sure, but it's also a horrific, violent crime. The 'humor,' if you can even call it that with your smooth brain, comes from the shock of taking that innocent rhyme scheme and ending it with something so completely messed up and unexpected. It's not actually funny to most people, it's just dark and disturbing. You probably thought the rhyme itself was the punchline, didn't you?
