Where do rants go?
« on: November 07, 2011, 07:02:45 PM »
So where is the rants/venting area now that BLYHT is gone? I've already got one from today.

I thought Off topic fun was the most appropriate but didn't want to be a downer in there. Mature area also make sense as not just anyone can see it, which would seem appropriate. I just want to know what is the right place before I go complaining about my day.

See and here I thought we had moved to stop getting spam. Well that and so the bill collectors would harass someone else.  ;)

It's also to keep new members from registering, jumping straight there, and causing a giant kerfuffle. Real people can cause more trouble than spambots.

That would seem to be the case.

Oh well, it just means I need to stay de-lurked for a while and actually post. Suppose I could see about contributing to Talore's Essential Warrior project.

The necessary post count on the old boards was only twelve, IIRC. A hundred is much better.

I do agree. Just a bit tedious atm.

The urge to spam is hard to resist.

On the old boards, posts in the Playground section didn't count towards your total post count. I don't know if it's the same now, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was.
Please send private messages regarding board matters to Forum Staff instead.

I'll reply with a question so you can reply with an answer.

A Muslim and a Mormon are at a bar, one turns to the other and says "those Catholics are such hypocrites."
Did you get it?

Is the joke that, while not funny, his statement (when applied to the organization as a whole, not necessarily individuals that are a part of it) could very well argued to be true?

Or is it that a Mormon and a Muslim are both, stereotypical, unlikely to be found in a bar, especially in a casual chat with each other?

None of the above.
An anti joke is based on not being a joke at all which is in turn funny.
A thinking joke requires you to work though it before you find the humor in it.
At best it's an anti joke that requires some thought into it were further ruins it making it the worst possible joke ever (see above).
Or this is all just a bunch of BS and I wanted you to tell me a punchline to complete it.

You'll never know!

Bullshit, you just forgot the punchline.

Not just stereotypically - both religions explicitly forbid alcohol :p
