Do you ever laugh really hard at a thread and try to show it to someone
who isn't on DU? (a co-worker or family member) They NEVER think it's funny.

I practically peed my pants over the BigMcLargeHuge/Underpants birthday thread, but when I showed it to someone at work, they didn't even crack a smile.

Any ideas as to why that is? Or is it just my friends and co-workers. :o

1. We're smarter than the average bear, that's why.

3. I don't think that's necessarily it, but nice try. Did MrsB laugh
at threads before she started posting here?

2. Hmph! Civilians!
*ptooey*

I think it's because we have the background that things strike us more as funny. You truly do have to be there for some of the stuff we talk about here.

4. I thought that too, but I started laughing at stuff when I came from
GD to the lounge (yes, I once posted exclusively in GD)
