Apparently, not only is everyone here funny but their wit is so completely natural that they are not actually trying to be funny. It's actually I who has no sense of humor. It all makes so much sense now. How could I have been so wrong? I need a nap, pompousity takes a lot out of me.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

A One that isn't cold, is scarcely A One at all.

No antagonism intended, just a friendly reminder.
You're not dealing with a bunch who appreciates the head-pats or patronizing. Taste is subjective and you'd be wise to remember that before generalizing.
(We're a friendly crowd but extremely pedantic, and most of us learn this the hard way. Welcome.)

Wolfram, I just noticed your tag and have deemed it the funniest thing in the world that is not named Allyson.
Gotta say, you've managed those old guac stains with grace.

Thanks Plei. And my dry cleaning bill has come down significantly.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hey, I need as much funny as I can get, so I'm all for folks trying for it, even if they fail sometimes.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Does this mean I get to do more a) b) c) jokes? Or should I move to numbers? 1 joke, 2 joke, 3 joke, ah ah ah.
Ahem.
In completely unrelated (and possibly on topic) news, I see Mr Minear and Mr Whedon's Firefly has just been picked up by Scifi for reruns from 22 July. Friday nights at 7:00/6:00c - what will that be up against?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I know an offensive religious joke!

Is it funnier than "Buddha You Fat Fuck!"?

t stands up in favor of the funny as I cannot provide my own.
I expect I missed Tim, but I'll wave anyway.
I'm anticipatorally nervous about Wednesday nights next fall, but many things may happen between now and then. As the old story goes, "I could die, the king could die, or the horse could learn to fly."
