punkrockskaboy January 30, 2003 5:10 PM	The bleeding anus stuff was a contest. Try reading the forums before you *attempt* to insult people. Also, the druids are a running gag. Yet again, try reading the forums or you'll make yourself look like an ass.

& you did a very good job running druid gags, punkrocksaboy. I certainly wouldn't want to suggest otherwise. Forgive me, I'm a newbie and did not know that humor was defined in the forums.

Devin, I would be happy to explain the joke to you if I could, but jokes lose something when explained that cannot be regained in the re-phrasing. For example:

There is an old saying about throwing calcium carbonate formed around a grain of sand in the shells of certain mollusks in front of even-toed ungulates of the family Suidae. As you can see, this explanation is nowhere near as pithy as the original saying.

You just don't get it.

No one said that humor was "defined in forums". I was simply saying that your insult was trivial and stupid because the comics that were about that were part of something. Not meant to be taken on their own. Get it now?

Then the solution to this, is to make the phrasing funny in the comic. Agree Devin?

punkrockskaboy January 30, 2003 8:21 PM	I forgot to mention (to make it absolutely clear what I meant), not to say that comics shouldn't BE funny on their own, but some require background. Background you didn't bother to look into before ridiculing us.

punkrockskaboy January 30, 2003 10:12 PM	I thought that through, and I truly thought he wasn't a troll. I guess I was wrong.

ROFLMAO! I give up. I looked at the comics done by punkrockskaboy
and Devin and I like their stuff. They're obviously having fun here.

Then, I scrolled back and carefully read what they wrote to me. They didn't insult me, I over-reacted to their criticism of my comic and I insulted them.

punkrockskaboy, Devin, I apologize. I asked for your opinion and you gave it. I should have said, "Thank you."

Thank you both for even taking the time to let me know what you thought.

User #16352 January 31, 2003 1:36 PM	There, everything is resolved. NOW, WHO WANTS CHEESECAKE?

jes_lawson January 31, 2003 3:22 PM	YEAH! Cheesecake and Bailey's! Bailey's cheescake is the shit. Opens more legs than a speculum.

punkrockskaboy January 31, 2003 3:24 PM	Awww, how sweet. All's well that ends well. Welcome to our sarcastic, mocking home. I apologize for my tormenting as well.
