I respectfully point out that this is just your opinion, and it's based on nothing else than your fantasy. I don't think your accusatory conjecture deserves the slightest of respectful treatment, neither does your stating it as a fact.

I'll take that as admitting you just want to piss me off. Your defence is what I was referring to BTW. Also regardless of my yawn pics I did read that post and, the above quoted. As for the rest it's not worth debating because, you're just trying to piss me off.

Ah, well, when you put it like that... yea, yea, mhm, definitely ;)

Yay! I'm glad you're enjoying it! I've actually become more critical too. Probably because of stuff like RedLetterMedia and, sfdebris. Though I can most times still suspend my disbelief... about Bones though I never watched it...

greenpenguino has done it! Will remove from list.

TV's Frink said:But how am I going to find out the big secret now?

First time I saw an official Rebecca Black music vid in it's entirety. Up to now I've only seen snippets of "Friday" never the full thing.

First thought: Ugh, auto-tune. I liked it better used in that cat video.
Second thought: 'Kay I'm watching Elvis now to listen to better music.
Third thought sometime later: Wha..? Oh yeah I'll leave my comments on OT.com about my thoughts on this thing.

I don't have much of an opinion on this... I just don't care. *shrug*

Why isn't his blood invisible?

When a containers refractive index is the same as air objects & materials within the container are not visible. This is due to the light bending around the object itself. If we're to assume Frink's body is in that chair with invisibility powers he's also naked glasses aside.... So anyways...

Not Youtube but, there's Pencils in this vid

twooffour said:

Well you said "yawn" to piss me off, so I want you banned.

TV's Frink said:

THIS POST IS INTENTIONALLY OFF-TOPIC SO I CAN FIND OUT WHAT THE BIG PROBATION SECRET IS.

twister, I await your considoeration...

...

CARP!!!

twooffour said:

Granted.

Btw, I've remembered another few nice words from the recent past: "dick", "dickwad". Guess who said it, and to whom.

So why don't I hear suggestions to ban you, or anyone else?
No weak defenses, please.

Don't think I did anything to merit probation, the picture had "doobie" in the title.

I largely feel that in spite of a few story flaws. That Chuck is really entertaining and, funny. With great performances and, chemistry amongst Chuck and, Sarah. It makes me lenient towards the story in due part to the rest of the show being supremely awesome in so many ways. So while I agree with you that the story does start to become a tad convoluted. I still think of Chuck as a top show for being so well done in many of it's other aspects.



(Also, yes I was holding off of immediately replying to you until I thought about what you said for a bit. Plus, I was having trouble sleeping too...)

twooffour said:

So how is a "comment on me" on topic, but a comment on an avatar already not?
I'd say the line is drawn between topic and person, not person and avatar ;)

A picture of a Vader costume also doesn't have anything to do with a topic discussing a particular issue of Star Wars.
It says "connected the topic", not "the movie series mentioned" ;)


So whatever, it's kinda an idiotic rule anyway.

And that after explaining this in perfect detail in a previous comment?
But hey, you know, reply to some other part of that comment, and then pretend to not have read the rest.

Make me explain everything all over again. JESUS CHRIST.

twooffour said:

No you just fail at understanding dictionary definitions. You admitted to not attempting to be funny with it. Trying to be comical is by definition an attempt at being funny. Therefore your humor was not lost on us because, there was none to begin with.

I've covered this all in that post you "yawned" at.
Basically, you're wrong (including about my intentions), and you can read that post to find out why.

I'm done with repeating myself endlessly.

All I'll say is, as I haven't really addressed this there, there are different kinds, or rather degrees, of "funny": Something that actually makes you lol, then there's anti-humor which is funny by... being explicitely unfunny, and there's the inbetween thing that kinda just makes you "chuckle", ideally.

Like, if we have an evening party with some buds, some things dropped will inevitably cause minutes of laughter, then at other times, someone will say or do something that's kinda bland, kinda funny, kinda pale, but still makes you "chuckle" or "smile", or roll your eyes feigning annoyance, or anything along those lines, because it's kinda a bit funny, but also lame, and goes nowhere. But kinda amusing.
You may call it "filler", I guess. But it's a positive one, and boy, can you tell it from a "srs" statement of any kind (which are also dropped en masse at meetings like this).

Really your defence of this just makes you appear to be a creep.

Nothing creepy about insinuating that you may consider changing your vote upon realizing you were wrong, but are reluctant to say it aloud :p

"Hey, Frink, look, twister just thought she should change her vote, could you do that please? LOL"

Very creepy.

Given your lame thread title, her post was on-topic, and since it pointed out how lame you are, I'd say it added value to the discussion.

So who's got Asperger's here, hands up!

My pic pointed out how silly Moth3r's avatar was (mimicking his silly opinion), so it contributed a lot, too.
So thanks for discrediting the validity of my temp ban.

twooffour said:

Oh, twister, I'm sorry, I guess it was just my faith for humanity breaking out, hehe.

You said:

So, yeah. (profanity) (profanity) (profanity) I vote twooffour is problem. (crass remark) (crass remark) (crass remark)

That's after seemingly proving my usage of "humor" to be wrong, by citing a dictionary.
I cited another meaning from the same dictionary, which supports my usage.

So I guess now you have no reason to vote against me anymore - and a vote with no legs to stand on ain't worth crap :D
So yea, just you got that. But apparently not.

twooffour said:

Not to mention I don't see anywhere that she said she was wrong about you.

I said... I heard her... THINKING that.
And yet you take it at face value, assuming I was talking about PMs.

You might wanna withdraw twister, I just heard him thinking that he was kinda wrong about it.

TV's Frink said:

SHE will let me know if SHE wants her vote withdrawn, dumb ass.

Not to mention I don't see anywhere that she said she was wrong about you.  Unless you guys are trading PM's, in which case I suggest she file a restraining order immediately.

Aw aw, an 'oop!

Well, then, how about the abridged version.

Basically, an opinion CAN be "promoted" to a fact, or rather, "pretty damn certain knowledge", it just needs good evidence.
Making a prediction that if I let go of my pencil, it'll drop to the floor, is a fact; weather or medical predictions are "probability statements", or professional opinions, and some shaky, disputable suggestion how to improve one's finances, an opinion.

l certainly was hoping for a chuckle or two, but it just wasn't really good. Kinda pointless.

That was meant to be funny??? It looks like we'll need a humour archaeologist to find the funny in that statement.

The question is, was the "funny" undetectable, or the obvious "attempt"?

Although I took this comment as a joke, so I replied with this brilliant gem:

Humor = it wasn't meant seriously. If you need an archaeologist to figure out that [[i.e., that it was INTENDED as a joke, not seriously]], you might as well try to use an X-Ray to find your brain.

That's what all the smart academics call:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-humor

A "joke", still easily detectible as such, and distinguishable from something "serious", that's meant to be funny, or at least slightly amusing, by being emphasizedly bad, or leaving out the punchline, or replacing an expected punchline with something unfunny.

All ambiguities aside, a person unable to tell that from a serious statement, lacks sense of humor all the same.

Mine was a really stupid analogy that didn't work.

Anti-humour is often emphasized by a long, awkward pause, as often done in the RedLetter Media short films.

For what it's worth, sorry for saying "humor transplant" rather than "irony transplant" or "not-serious-statement transplant". I only know of the expression "humor transplant". The others I don't know of. Or have ever heard of.


Next, please :P

Excuse the brevity of this post. I read the new posts. I did make a post prior but, I mainly was skimming at the time. So, apologies to doubleKO for incorrect listing in my PSA. Anyways this whole thing's basically defence of a non-humour being incorrectly defined as "humor" extended to many pages.

But there was no funny in there in the first place, so what the heck :)

But hey, I just said something about a "humor transplant", and then making ANOTHER JOKE about brain size - I didn't start the whole justification rant thing until CP got seriously offended and butthurt. Which is just hilarious.
