IainB:
... what's the point or reason behind changing the Topic Title in a reply? I don't get it... :huh:

Because I can, I suppose, but generally as an attempt to give the joke (or post) a more easily identifiable and meaningful/relevant subject line - e.g., (say) other than "Re: silly humor - post 'em here! [warning some NSFW and adult content]". I mean, how dreary is that? :tellme:
Plus, look at what I just did for this subject. The subject line can be made humorous too - no?
...Oh, and that's a grammar error that gives me the same physical reaction as nails on a blackboard! :o

Yes, absolutely, and given that it was in a supposed "teaching" context on that website, it seemed doubly scratchy/cringeworthy to me.
Amusingly, I happened to be searching up "poetic devices" with my 13 y/o daughter, helping her in her Eng. Lit. homework (she was writing some poetry), when that particular, starkly incongruous and self-defeating statement on that website hit me between the eyes.
...Hmm, if it were 9 one inch nails I wonder if music would be produced?

Har-de-har-har, a very punny point you drive home there, @MilesAhead. ;D

This is a fun one from Stevie Riks.
A respectful - yet refreshingly light-hearted version of one of the most popular (to say nothing of self-righteous and somewhat condescending) Christmas standards of them all. Hey...Bob Geldof had a hand in writing the song. What can I say?
How many pop stars can you identify? :Thmbsup:

(there must be a term for it like a la carte but I'm not schooled in Haute cuisine.)

Is it just me or are posts missing links lately? (Not talking Darwin but web links.) :)

Can't say I've noticed that. :huh:
Anybody else?
