      Yea really should have had the leg up on the dresser next to a lamp or something. My mind didn’t go directly to A Christmas Story.

    2. Only a matter of time before someone posts this on r/explainthejoke and r/peterexplainsthejoke.

    3. This is some esoteric fetish imprinting.

      I’m shocked how fast I got it before I read the text

    4. I had Gemini explain it.

      >Keep up, yeah? It’s a reference to that old film *A Christmas Story*.

      >In the movie, the dad wins a “major award” which is just a proper weird lamp shaped like a woman’s leg. It’s wearing a fishnet stocking and a gold shade. Ralphie is the kid from the film.

      >Fast forward a bit. Ralphie’s all grown up and clearly has a bit of a problem. Look at the floor. The girl he’s visiting has a prosthetic leg that’s a dead ringer for his dad’s lamp.

      >The joke is Ralphie’s got a “type.” He’s literally out here looking for the human version of a piece of living room furniture. It’s dark, it’s weird, and you’re a bit slow for not clocking it.

      >Want me to explain any other obvious jokes, or have you got it now?

    5. A Christmas Story . Ralphie is the kid, the leg lamp. I feel like it’s pretty self explanatory
