there are many varieties of humor. no one is going to be amused by all of them. that's no reason to say they're not funny (coughsportsnightcoughcough). but heck, sometimes things are funny just by not being funny. or by being stupid or pointless or random. those sorts of humor take a special brand of audience to appreciate (ASC fans, say).
ah well, to each their own, of course, but there should always be an outlet for people's work, whether they have a few fans or a few million...
plus there's such a thing as loyalty among people who've been thru stuff together. stuff like wars or posting on the same message boards. unless you're Vicious, who doesn't know the meaning of loyalty. but he doesn't exist, so i'm not sure why I brought him up.
