Did you read that from Wikipedia?

I swear that's what I first read when I did the research on humor on Wikipedia.

I'm sure it's been said lots of times.  I first saw it on Penny Arcade when Gabe said it about websnark, and he didn't take credit for coining it.

Did you miss the part where I said watching old women having their necks snapped also makes me laugh?

I advise you not take it personally.

And by explaining the jokes, I was just attempting to explain my sense of humor, not trying to coerce people into agreeing with it.

Again, for the last time, I thought it was funny (probably because I compared it so readily to Futurama), others didn't. Deal with it.

Sorry, I didn't mean you specifically, I meant in general so we can let the thread shuffle off this mortal coil.

Alas, poor Yorick, I knew him well.  Then he dropped a Spade card and so I completed the cards quest and had nothing more to do with him.

Really? Darn. They must've patched the Yorick quest. When I did it all I got was some vendor trash greens.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.
