2. Do you enjoy pouting?
Are you holding your breath until you turn blue, or are you just stamping your little feet?

14. Humor is on the Unrec List at DU these days
Sanctimony is the only acceptable tone anymore, please adjust your attitude accordingly. :)

Yeah, real obvious humor there, laststeamtrain.

Try removing your joke cloaker next time.

25. Coming from someone who thinks that there is even a vestage of humor in
the OP, I will take that as a compliment.

27. I (& others) did think there was a 'vestige' of humor in the OP.

Please throw your word-a-day calender away. They do more harm than good.

Excuse me, will you? There's a vestige of lager left in the bottle, I must go & sipeth yon vestige now.

28. Ah well, another ignorant twit on my ignore list.
With your contempt for language, it's no wonder you cant write anything funny.

11. Hooray for you
Not getting a joke makes your response look a bit like a joke.

21. Sorry, giggles,
but there was not a hint of even snark in the op.

Your reply looks as though it were written by a bit of an asshole.

7. If you find yourself having to explain that what you post is 'funny'
then it isn't.

17. The problem, of course, is that when you create a thread that is exactly like 1000 others,
... it is difficult to stand back and say, "This clearly is sarcasm, even though the OP uses the same language as every thread before it."

So, fine -- it was a joke.


:applause:

19. So, there were a 1000 other threads that suggested ***UN-APPRECIATION*** Threads?
Could you point one out to me?

I missed this 1000 other threads that were the same as mine.

Just show me one. Forget the other 999. Who's counting?
