TheCinciKid 0 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 This post makes very little sense, but if it is a true story, I can only assume it was a joke. Not a very funny one though. Link to post Share on other sites
Limit Player 0 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 yeah, you'd think someone with only 20 posts since August 2005 would post much better content ...A pair of 1's. Oh ho ho! Someone find me some ribs for my elbow to jab! Link to post Share on other sites

Big Trips 0 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I'd say it's a pretty funny joke.Even funnier are the posters who don't even seem to understand it's a joke and the guy saying someone who posted only 20 times should come up with something better. How is that equation made up? The fewer posts you've made, the funnier you have to be? And if you posted 2000 times, you don't basically don't have to provide much valuable content at all?

OrzyVibe 0 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Yes, I'm certain the 'joke' was just over our heads. It couldn't be that it was just plain stupid...nope...that certainly wasn't it. Link to post Share on other sites

If someone has only posted about 25 times over 6 months, you'd think that when they did post, it would be something great and/or worthwhile. We understand it's a joke -- an unfunny one. It's not irony, either. Maybe by Alanis Morrisette standards ... Link to post Share on other sites

Bill_Brasky 0 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 When you have to explain your humor...humour it is usually a result of poor delivery, not your audience's lack of subtlety. Just trying to help. Link to post Share on other sites

anytwocards 0 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Whether the statement is funny is debatable, apparently. I'm not sure how you can argue against irony, though. Irony: An expression or utterance marked by a deliberate contrast between apparent and intended meaning.So, if this statement is not ironic, you are suggesting he really can't believe the guy called with a pair of ones. His intended meaning was quite opposite of this. Link to post Share on other sites
