Laughing at NSers.

When/Where do you tend to laugh at what another poster has said? In other words, do you find yourself laughing at what someone has said even after logging off?

When replying, exercise extreme caution before referring to specific examples. This could be construed as taunting at/gloating about other NationStates players, which would be flamebait.

If you're talking about laughing at someone who's deliberately trying to be funny, then that's fine. If you're talking about laughing at someone for something they posted in earnest, then it's best to not bring it up at all (unless you get their permission).

Carry on.

Yes, we are talking about people who are trying to be funny. In specifc, let's not post any names or quotes. Huh?
@ Cogitation thank you for deleting the other thread. :)

When I laugh at a post, it's pretty rare. Happens a few times a month. And even still, the humor lasts up until I leave the computer, then I forget the joke.

I think I MIGHT'VE suddenly remembered a funny post at one point in class and burst out laughing, but that's a once-in-a-year kinda thing.

For the most part, NSers aren't funny at all.

Can I laugh at your instant demand for peace and stability in the NS General region?

If you want to talk about people who are trying to be funny, then you have nothing to worry about. It's when you start talking about people who are or were serious that you have to be careful.

@ Cogitation thank you for deleting the other thread. :)
You're welcome.

Awww, I think he does a great job. :)

And no, I never laugh at anything NSer's say outside of the forums, seeing as I don't really think about NS unless I'm actually on the forum.

Yes, you may.

I will, nevertheless, expect peace and stability. That's my job. Demand peace and stability, expect peace and stability, and knock heads together when I don't get peace and stability. :p

Hmm... the parody parrot mixup. I won't say Jesussave's name, but I think it went like this:

Someone: I think [Not Jesussaves] is a parody.
Definately NOT Jesussaves: I don't care what you think. And you can't even spell parrot.

But, no names :)
Oksana

*whispers* That was funny. Vote for that quote on my poll sometime in the next few days.

I try to be funny, but mostly when I'm RPing. And there are some people who make me laugh, but that'd be mainly in RPs, too. Real laugh-out-loud humor doesn't come along too often. However, I find a lot of the things people say here amusing.

Yeah, Oksana about killed me last night. LG and Keruvalia have really cracked me up a few times. So have Occidio and Neo-Anarchist. Sometimes I just can't resist reading stuff out loud to my roommates.

That's okay. I'm not funny either apparently. (okay, so I knew that)

Don't be mean to yourself, Branin. You're not funny-looking. You actually look like a guy I dated except different...

I'm going to give people the chance to laugh at my total ignorance. I don't have a digital camera and thought I might like to post some pics. Can I take my regular pictures and have them put on a disc to post? Do I need any special software? I'm kind of technologically retarded. Posts or TG, which ever you prefer. Feel free to laugh, just help.

take the pic to a drug store. put them on a cd. take cd home, and insert the disk. save the pics to your desktop, for easy reference. then go to photo bucket, create an account, and upload the pic. then you can share them. i think this is correct. i offer no guarantees. just put in some nude shots for all the boys on here that lust after you , paige. or, send me the nudes, and i will collect money before letting the horndogs view them. dont worry, i will give you , say..... 25%. then i will slap you around, you know, because that would make me your pimptress.

a woman pimp is just a pimp. not a pimpette, not a pimptress. the only real difference is she hits harder, and her crushed velvet suits are more form-fitting. :D

Thanks OM. But there will be no nude pics. I'd have to let my roommates take them, and either of these boys seeing me nude just creeps me out.
And you may be bigger than me, but you have to sleep sometime. And I don't. :p

it's a pretty basic bait and switch. she's advertising, but she ain't selling. and if your options are going into the dingy white-hen bathroom around the corner and taking care of your newly got hard-on yourself and renting one of occs cheaper brand knockoffs, what are you gonna do?
