4. Yeah, I was afraid of that |
|
See, the OP was lamenting the apparent disconnect between one of her posts and its correct parent-thread, so I thought that it would be a laugh-riot to post a reply that obviously had nothing to do with her OP.
Maybe it's not funny in that "I'm going to laugh at it" way after all; it's funny in that "ah, yes--very droll" way.
I'll take it!

5. See, now it's fucking brilliant. |
|
But you had to explain it first. Which means you either need to dumb future posts down, we need to smarten up, or we need a smarter clientèle in the Lounge. Or some combination of these.

6. Did I mention that the OP paid $33 million for a nude woman? |
|
Maybe that was the missing piece of context.

13. "He'? I think the correct pronoun is "I" |

Somehow I was under the impression you were busy pulling your finances together for your new piece of art:P

That was funny enough that I realized I was still going to be laughing by the time I get thirsty and get something to drink. That's how funny it was. I used that smilie preemptively. I don't even have a glass in this room right now.

16. I know how you feel - most of my jokes fall flat |
|
Maybe because the jokes are too clever, too outre, too sophisticated.
Or maybe they're just dumb jokes. Nah, that can't be it.
To my deep sadness, I sort of crack a smile every time I see a news story about some Brazilian dying. I blame teh lounge.
:hi:
