Some people just can't take a joke...


Yes, I realize the fact that some would like it to be construed as a joke.

Spreading lies about someone is now considered funny. Ok, I got it.

Nah, I think you just don't have a sense of humor. If someone was "spreading lies", as you say, they probably wouldn't start off with something like..

Not all true or accurate, but funny.

Spreading lies involves someone trying to pass off said lies as truth...that is not the case here. However, I'm sure you won't let a simple thing like a fact get in the way of you getting all upset over it.

This is so off the wall that I have to ask, do you know what a personal insult is and how does refering to OT as the pimples and girl friend left me forum even remotely apply?

Have you read that forum recently?

Insane3D, the question remains, if they are lies, than why post them?

I told you. It was meant to be humorous..a joke...amusing...meant to invoke laughter or a brief chuckle..or maybe even a smile in someone that doesn't take everything so seriously that any joke about the president is evil and meant to tarnish his image or something. You really need to step back and learn to disern the difference between a joke, and lies that are meant to insult or defame character. Like I said before, if these items were passed off as being factual and acurate, you would have a legitimate reason to be upset, but when they are clearly labeled as not accurate or factual, and intended to be a joke, they are just that....a joke.

Got it, telling lies about someone is considered funny. It really doesn't matter if you put a disclaimer at the top if you are still posting lies.

BTW, these are jokes.

George Bush and Dick Cheney go out to dinner. The waitress asks them what they would like. After looking at the menu, Cheney says he would like a piece of prime rib with all the trimmings, and Bush says he would like a "quickie". At that, the waitress storms off, shouting over her shoulder how she thought all that horrible behavior and language was over now that Bush was president.

So, Bush sets there, looking confused, and Cheney leans over and says, "Uh, Mr. President, that's pronounced "Quiche".
-----

A plane was about to crash and there were five people on board and only four parachutes. The first person said, "I'm an emergency room physician in a small town, and I save lives routinely. There's a shortage, and it would be very hard to replace me. I think we should take that into consideration when we decide who gets a parachute." So he gets a parachute and bails out.

The second person said, "I'm his emergency room nurse, and what the doctor says applies to me as well. I should also mention that I have two young children and a third on the way." So she gets a parachute and bails out.

This leaves a 10-year-old schoolgirl, George Dubya Five-to-Four Bush, the Pope, and two parachutes. Bush says, "Ah'm George W. Bush, the Ruler of the Universe, and only Ah know how to rule it right. Why, the world'd go to Hell in a handbasket without me. Now, I know some are with me and some are with the enemy, and Ah'm told at least one of you is with the enemy. So Ah'm not askin' for a parachute, Ah'm jes takin' one." So off he goes.

The Pope said: "Child, I am old and frail and have lived my life while you are young with everything before you. You take theparachute and I will stay with the aircraft and take my chance."

"It's okay," said the girl. "There are still two parachutes. Bush picked up my schoolbag."

Got it. etech lacks a sense of humor if it involves President Bush.


Did all those Clinton jokes, that if taken literally were lies, get you upset as well.?

Most of the Clinton jokes I ignored.

I did sort of appreciate the German sense of humor with the float.


You'll have to explain why you find the orginal post "humerous". It doesn't seem to fit the normal concept of a joke.


Tell me what you think about this one.

Did you hear that Al Gore died?
He was hugging a tree and termites ate him.

Hey etech, why don't you just cut and paste the fake resume and just label off the parts that are not true (if not the whole thing) or exaggerated if it really bothers you so then the people who didn't get it was a joke wouldn't be misinformed. These days I tend to double check my sources of info like all people should do, I've learned my lesson, but some haven't.

Its an obvious Bush-bash, but then again all those Clinton jokes of the past weren't very accurate either.

Then again the first line BDawg states:
Not all true or accurate, but funny. Sorry about the formatting, it's from an e-mail.

So no one in their right mind should believe it, just read it and chuckle then move on.

This may surprise you, but I really didn't find it very funny at all. I agree, it is not a "normal" joke, but never the less, it was posted as a joke, not a fact. The joke sort of appeals to people that really dislike Bush, and most people will likely not think much of it.

Did you hear that Al Gore died?
He was hugging a tree and termites ate him.

Again, not a very funny joke, and also, if taken literally, also a lie. Most people know termites don't eat people. I imagine however that the joke would appeal more to conservatives who couldn't stand Clinton or Gore. It's directed at the opposite target audience of the joke above.

This also reminds me of the common joke of Gore saying he invented the internet. In reality, IIRC, he said something to the effect that he introduced legislation to help it's development or something, but most people still think he actually said that he invented the internet. That is neither here or there though.

You have managed to go from the stupid to the inane. Congratulations.

If the very best retort you can come back with is ?Lighten up Francis? why even bother posting? Be willing to exercise those gray cells, use them, they don't wear out.

That last comment is pathetic, just like yourself. Have you ever opened up a History book? Do you even know what it means to 'rape, pillage and plunder?' If you did, I doubt you'd be accusing the United States of doing it...

ever been in this forum before? lol

What part of the history book will I find information on what happened to the 15-20 million native Indians whose land we stole before we had the courtesy to commit genocide against them?


The Indi....oops, I mean Native Americans lost, get over it.

How long you had that pole stuck up your rectum? It wasn't a retort; there was nothing that needed one. It was a joke, just like the rest of this thread (for everyone but you, apparently). Have you ever seen the movie Stripes?

Don't take yourself so seriously.

How long have you been staring at my rectum?

In the sprit of this thread.
I do not know that bowfinger is a "pirate" and is staring covetously at my backside. He does seem somewhat obsessed with what he belives may be in there and sounds a little peeved about it for some reason. This is only an assumption on my part that he is not jealous of what ever "pole" he is envisioning in his mind's eye to be there instead of his. I can only hope that he recovers from his obsession since I am happily married to a wonderful woman and have been for the past 20 something years. My only advice bowfinge is try some of the guys from San Fran. You may have more luck there with your bow finger style.



Insane3D
If you are going to try to emulate me you'll have to do better than that. You ain't even close son. No joke and that's the fact Jack.

Now Bowfinger, I know you want my 'red eye' and picture it in your mind when typing messages to me but you'll just have to get over it. Please stop commenting about it. I feel as if you are stalking me and it. It ain't gonna happen son. You just have to move on to someone else that enjoys your alternative life style.

Unless you have a prolapsed rectum, I think the term is "brown eye."
