And while we're on the subject, why do some idiots say "too funny" when someone makes a witty comment? Is it that the joke actually was too funny, and perhaps the teller should tone it down before someone has an accident or dies laughing?
Or is it, as I suspect, that the joke wasn't really that funny at all, and the person who says it was in fact too funny is either a terrible judge of comedy, a big fucking liar, or really wanted to say "fuck off" but didn't want to appear petulant. One of those three. Probably in combination.
And if that is the case, that the original post was not at all funny and the petulant second poster wants the first to fuck off, why reenforce the big fucking lie of "too funny" with the follow-up "lol"? In effect, saying, "See? I Laughed Out Loud at your joke which I just said was Too Funny. That proves it!"
I think we should make a concerted effort toward message board honesty, and say what we really mean. For example:
Jibbles. After extensive review, I find that your post "Oh Em Gee. You are too funny. Thank you lol" was badly worded, poorly thought-out, and in general a waste of your time and the time of everyone else here. Please apologize forthwith, and don't do that any more ever again.
Thank you, lol.
Well. Now I feel better. Carry on.
