Difference Between Me and Rope

Listen up, buttercup. The joke is all about wordplay. The person is saying a rope will "hang with you," meaning it will stick around and be a friend. But it also means a rope can be used to literally hang someone. It's dark because it implies the person feels alone and maybe even suicidal, which is like, super not funny for you, but it is funny for me. You probably don't get it, because you are kind of dumb, right?
