As soon as the general election was called yesterday, everyone rushed to get their jokes in. Most of them were phenomenally good.

This snap election really doesn't give Vladimir Putin very long to get organised. It really is rather unfair.

In April, May calls June election

But then there was this other joke. The one literally everyone was making about the snap election.

You know the one. The one where everybody say they "misheard" the term snap election and think Theresa May had called for a snap erection. Yeah, that one.

Just went to google this latest political news and accidentally typed in 'snap genital erection'. The IT guys in this place will love that.

Since yesterday, that joke has now been made well over 2000 times. This guy explained the joke for anyone who still doesn't understand that election is spelt a bit like erection.

So snap election... change the l to and r and you get a very different thing, however you get a similar outcome, shits gunna get messy!

@mophead97 I don't get this tweet

@vicmbond Snap erection, that would be very messy and so will the snap election

— Dan Williamson (@mophead97) April 19, 2017

@mophead97 after the tenth time of reading it, i get it! Well done on this funny tweet Daniel 🤘🏽

— vic to ria (@vicmbond) April 19, 2017

@vicmbond Hahaha thanks!

— Dan Williamson (@mophead97) April 19, 2017

Others restrained themselves. Sorta.

The desire to make a 'snap erection' joke, is strong within this one.

— Polly Vernon (@PollyVernon) April 19, 2017

Most others didn't.

@StephenTweeted Snap erection?

— Papa Laz (@swsmith73) April 18, 2017

I'm calling a snap erection.

You don't want to snap your erection. #politics

— David Hodbod (@Bodders_88) April 18, 2017

So we're gonna have a snap erection

— MAD DAD! (@thartsalot) April 18, 2017

Rather have a snapped erection than this snap election.

— Lone Wolf Jez Corbyn (@KonyChimel) April 18, 2017

Well yer honour, I thought she said “snap erection”#GeneralElection

— D Vicar (@dodgyvicar) April 18, 2017

And ever so slight variations of it.

So excited when I checked Gmail & saw an offer to slap my erection but then I found my glasses—it was just story of PM May's snap election.

— Lord Rat Squirt (@lordratsquirt) April 18, 2017

Snap erection, more like.

— Matt Owen (@MJowen174) April 18, 2017

Thanks for the snap erection, Teresa. Hope you get a well hung parliament.

This guy was worried there wouldn't be enough snap erection jokes.

@hrtbps @alistaircoleman If no-one's done a 'snap erection' joke there is no hope for this world.

— Phil (@fatboyfat) April 18, 2017

But there were. In fact, last count there were over two thousand snap erection jokes made just on Twitter yesterday, and they show no sign of stopping.
