It's part of my plan to reduce pissing off Brian to a minimum.  I reckon if I just give up a simple 'ok' as opposed to an in-depth critique of some of his posts, he's less likely to snap. If were to point out where he's gone wrong - no matter how politely I do it - he tends to lose control and go off into some fakakta diatribe about unrelated issues.

 The success of the plan isn't particularly notable.

Some people would get a warning for "trolling" for doing things like that.

There’s one sure way to find out.

And some people would be at least grounded for making threats.

Life isn't fair.

So nobody here, has ever made a bad joke, or even a joke in real life face to face, "I'm going to knock you into next Tuesday"?

Keep that in mind the next time you read any other atheist on ANY website who uses dark sarcasm about barbecuing kittens and eating babies.

My best friend in HS back in the mid 80s used to joke with me when I would come in and bitch about something in the news, he'd twist his face, give me a funny look, and silly voice and say, "Well, you know what you need to do?" And asked, "What", he'd respond, "Kill everyone and plant trees."

And every time my best friend from Oklahoma sends me a country music song, AND I LIKE IT, but for the most part, I hate country music, but when he sends me something I like, I don't like to admit it and joike with him, "If you tell anyone I like this, I'll have to kill you."

And watch any cooking show on cable TV for that matter, the host will ask the cook, "what is in it", and the cook will respond, "If I tell you, I'll have to kill you."

The only thing that can be said about any type of dark sarcasm or joke, is timing and knowing your audience does matter. But don't assume mere sarcasm is meant as a real threat.

To be fair, my neighbor's mentally challenged, meth-addicted Lemur can achieve the same outcome when it starts with its incessant wailing.

"ABBATRON3700'' LOVE IT Hehe Smart ass! of course you know that means I'll have to kill you! 

Does anyone know how much shit ABBA has gotten for the past 40 years? 

That is so fucking funny I am tempted to change my user name to ABBATRON3700. Not going to do that, but I damned near choked on my drink reading that.

Thumbs up on having a sense of humor! Clap

I just want to take this moment to gloat over seeing Brian admit in public to liking some country music. LOL
