Opinions will differ over whether I am actually funny or not. But I know that I am quite often making attempts at humour. Some people get angry with me over it at times due to humour in a 'serious' conversation, or a remark they don't find funny.

Why do I do it?

Because it's a reflex. A coping mechanism. One that is working very well. I suffer from a variety of not-so-fun psychiatric problems, and I am known to get quite depressed at times. Joking became my coping mechanism. Whenever I got down, I would say something funny or write something funny, because it's pretty damn hard to be sad when you're laughing. Eventually I started noticing the humour in all kinds of situations around me daily. And the humour moved from being a depression response into just being a part of my personality, something that makes me me.

And that's that.

I think youre funny

i also think youre pretty damn great


but if humour helps you then it can only be a good thing, whether somebody else thinks its funny or not

You're joking right?

Ooh! Ooh! *hands waving about frantically*
Me first!
Dangit, fergot wut iz gonna say.
Brevity is the soul of wit, and my time is up *whimper*
Don't tell us the punch line, or we'll never learn! ;)

Seriously, don't think you have to change or explain yourself. I'm not critical of you at all, i think. I also think i can relate a lot to your post. *bows*

*claps*
Now lets get drunk.

shucks ,

I have to settle for being almost funny. Cheers to someone who is actually funny.

Someday perhaps with significant additional effort and more than a few "rubber chickens" I to may achieve humor nirvana.

So three cheers to the chicky who is actually funny....

You are a chicky arent you?

God bless humor! :)

You are a chicky arent you?
Yup.

I think you're funny, and I hope you didn't take my "Dude..." comment the wrong way. It was meant to enhance it, not kill it!

God bless humor! :)

Fine, I'll bless it. Yeesh. You mortals, always with the prayers....

:confused:
I don't know what "Dude..." comment you are talking about.
So I guess it didn't offend me in that case. Good. ^_^

Neo, you're the life of the party!

I don't know what General'd be doing without you!

:)

The one on the Mitch Hedburg thread.

Neo- humor rocks. Im humorously sarcastic almost every other word. Its like therapy for me...like a big band aid for lifes little boo-boo's...I totally get you.

Fine, I'll bless it. Yeesh. You mortals, always with the prayers....
Bah, you're not God and neither is Myrth!

And Neo, you're plenty funny. Much funnier than I, at least.

Hey, I can relate to that. When I was depressed I was totally the same.

Guess that part of my personality has kinda stuck around. For good or bad? :p

JFK is a tadpole.

Bah, you're not God and neither is Myrth!

And Neo, you're plenty funny. Much funnier than I, at least.
Just because they aren't THE God, doesn't mean they aren't A god. I didn't specify which god I wanted to bless humor.

Personally, I'd choose Hermes. *nod*

Since when is there only one god?

Meh, when I'm depressed, I constantly refresh this forum whilst listening to music.

Since when is there only one god?
Since I said so, punk!





*cackles evilly at his evil plan*

When Im depressed, I begin diving into buckets of ice cream - the sugary combination is my only retreat from the swirling pit of despondence that swirls around like a swirly.

Just because they aren't THE God, doesn't mean they aren't A god. I didn't specify which god I wanted to bless humor.

And I choose cheesecake, what of it punk?

Neo,
I haven't read many of your posts but I can relate to what you have said.
I have honed my wit over the years and it's sometimes so dry that people who don't know me or my character think I am being serious.
This leads to all sorts of missunderstandings and soemtimes I upset people.
I can't change what I am any more, even though I do try hard not to be so 'toxic' with those I don't know well.

Just go with it girl, don't apologise in advance, don't change yourself, cope how you cope and accept that some will like you, some won't.

You are a chicky arent you?

And a rubber chicky at that.

Besides, being funny is cool. These people, oppressing you like that. Gosh!

Since I said so, punk!

And who do you think caused that?

The Ohio State University and the SBX textbook store!

Man, I'd love to see your astrology chart, find the symbolism for this.
