You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
I'm bored enough to be looking at cute kittens on YouTube
I like how the tabby is impatient enough to try to climb up the guy's pants to get to his food
The trouble with humour is that people take it too seriously.
There's also a problem with a lot of humour not being funny, which might be a corollary.
I don't especially mean to pick on George Carlin (I mention him in my final post, too); he says a few interesting things (or hoarsely shouts a few interesting things), but says virtually nothing that is actually funny. If anything is a symptom of people taking humour too seriously, then this guy is.
Example of Carlin joke (from memory):
'Kyle' is a soft name for a boy. What happened to Todd, or Bill or Chuck? I'll bet you whatever you like that Todd, Bill or Chuck could beat Kyle or Tarquin to a pulp any day.
This is actually one of his funnier moments, though not very funny. What is the spur to laughter here? The only thing I can think of is the enjoyment in imagination of beating up effeminate men. Hilarious!
It was a Christmas play for the entire service but then the pastor swooped in for the benediction with a tirade about how same sex marriage was threatening to destroy the structure of family
America considered making this woman Vice President to a man on the cusp of death.
I think my single favorite story about that election was the time they did a focus group of undecided voters and one woman got up and shouted every single Fox News attack bullet point on Obama. The person conducting the focus group said "This is a group for undecided voters, if that's what you think of Obama how are you still undecided?" and she replied "If I don't vote for him, Sarah Palin could be president."
Once again, I've seen a post positing that feminism is for the good of all people, men and women. And once again, I feel something inside me saying 'in that case, why don't we just call it egalitarianism?"

For one, it's more unwieldy.
Because women are getting the short end of the stick.

Beat me up if you want, I'm a masochist

Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead
