[quote name="The Happiness Engine"][quote name="Commander Tansin A. Darcos"][quote name="The Happiness Engine"]Your idea of humor is generally horrifying.[/quote] Oh please. My idea of humor is nothing like generally horrifying. You want to see where the idea of humor is pushed to generally horrifying or beyond, check out "Happy Tree Friends," where the characters in the cartoon end up losing limbs, scraping their skin off pr hitting the ground so hard they are eviscerated into a splatter of gore. Like this one: <a href=http://www.mondomedia.com/videos/all-flocked-up-blurb/">all-flocked-up-blurb</a>.[/quote] No, that's a straightforward juxtaposition. It's pretty damn funny. Your idea of a joke is awkward and clunky and from a lifetime of being a nerd just generally reminds me of every bad moment in my life, so yeah, your "humor" is horrifying. [quote name="The Happiness Engine"] You don't see that responding to these arguments with "No I'm not!" isn't logical when it's prevailing opinion. [quote name="Commander Tansin A. Darcos"]It wasn't logical to respond to them in the first place. Besides, one time prevailing opinion included (1) The sun revolves around the earth; (2) The World is Flat; (3) Seinfeld was actually funny; (4) those who thought the government was spying on everyone were part of the tinfoil hat crowd.[/quote][/quote] The first 2 are totally irrelevant, as they are based on the evolution of science as a field of study. The third is you attempting to cast the general popular taste against your smug hindsight. The 4th is a conflation of media hysterias. None of those have anything to do with the fact that the general opinion of everyone here is that you react to social situations in an entirely off-putting way. This is where you reply with a rambling remembrance of a song in a movie from 30 years ago that actually has nothing to do with the themes of either. Tediously refuting your absence of logic really isn't my thing, but I thought it might be interesting to have someone lay out all your problems in a straight-forward and non-confrontational manner. I do realize it's completely useless because your mind is just going to gloss over the possibility that someone living on the fringes of society could ever be at a cultural or emotional disagreement with the larger whole, because you literally have no experience with the world outside of your own queer slice of it, but I'm hoping it's at least entertained someone here.
