Kelly the Dog Posted January 19, 2006 Author Posted January 19, 2006 I disagree, that wasn't funny. 573325[/snapback] Actually, it was. See, just on the surface, isolated, that line would not have been funny at all. But he was alluding to a post I had months and months ago, I believe in a thread where everyone explained what they did for a living. And I had explained how I worked in the film business in LaLaland, and I told everyone before they even started that their idea for a movie was not funny, but were all, indeed, terrible. So the fact the Carp Heaving Donkey pulled that reference out of nowhere, and very timely, to add a little relevant sarcasm to this thread, made it funny. Perhaps only a very small percentage got it, but it was funny nonetheless.
beerme1 Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Kelly, I need to know when I check in, should I say, Tard here, checkin in? Or have I been funny?
MavBavButav Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 this thread has become increasingly unfunny.....almost to the point of hilarity.
macdaddy Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 May I be completely serious for a second... Who died and left you in charge of the funny farm?
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 May I be completely serious for a second...Who died and left you in charge of the funny farm? 573364[/snapback] This is an attempted use of a pun and is seriously not funny, being as how puns are the lowest rung on the joke ladder.
/dev/null Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 being as how puns are the lowest rung on the joke ladder. 573368[/snapback] i thought that was potty humour?
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 i thought that was potty humour? 573374[/snapback] Nope. Puns. Adding "ou" to words in an attempt to pass yourself off as British is number two. Potty is a solid third from bottom rung.
realtruelove Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I am not, and never was, the final arbiter. I wasn't at all trying to say if you make me laugh, you're funny. The final arbiter is really what can only be called, "The Tardthink". But I will say, and this is only one man's opinion, you're digging yourself a rather large hole. 573335[/snapback] You are an idiot. Just kidding.
X. Benedict Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Nope. Puns. Adding "ou" to words in an attempt to pass yourself off as British is number two. Potty is a solid third from bottom rung. 573379[/snapback] Potty humour is funny if it is solid. Puns suck.

Like 'suicide in Buffalo'. This is pretty funny: Why do women have two sets of lips? So they can piss and moan at the same time.

BEAST MODE BABY! Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Potty humour is funny if it is solid. Puns suck. 573402[/snapback] I should add a caveat. Potty humor, wielded by the right individual, can be funny.
Gavin in Va Beach Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 House! You were lucky to live in a house! We used to live in one room, all twentysix of us, no furniture, half the floor was missing, and we were all huddled together in one corner for fear of falling.

Sisyphean Bills Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I must now be completely serious. The thought police would have it no other way.

We used to live in one room, all twentysix of us, no furniture, half the floor was missing, and we were all huddled together in one corner for fear of falling. 573413[/snapback] I had to get up in the morning at 10 o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed... eat a lump of dry poison... work twenty-nine hours a day down at the mill, and when we got home, our dad would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah! You can't tell the young people of the day that... They won't believe you.
beerme1 Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I must now be completely serious. The thought police would have it no other way. 573422[/snapback] they are a joke compared to the phone police!
stuckincincy Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 they are a joke compared to the phone police! 573469[/snapback] The partry line of yore had it's advantages...we shared with six other households.
SDS Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 The partry line of yore had it's advantages...we shared with six other households. 573479[/snapback] how did that work?
JoeF Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Dog -- i am curious what led to this Jerry Maguire like soliloquy...was it all the inane airport threads or the deep inside source threads or a combo....Timing is essential is humor--the first is funny--the 100th--not so much...
