... 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:

à la tête or dans la tête?

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

To put it another way, was there a link in your post about Riks?

@Miles - There was an embedded YT video using the YT tag, not the URL tag. I don't know if that's what you mean.

It was for this video: http://www.youtube.c.../watch?v=-B8k1kyPJVQ

It works fine in my browser. The video preview even shows up and works in your quote of my post. :)

Don't use HTTPS on DonationCoder, otherwise you won't see the YT videos ... unless, of course, you don't want to see the YT videos.

^Good to know. I wasn't aware of that. But I just checked and I used http not https so it wasn't that.

Don't use HTTPS to view DonationCoder not don't use it in links :)

If you go
Code: Text [Select]
  1. https://www.donationcoder.com/
you'll find that any "in message" YT videos will disappear - it's a good bandwidth saver ;)

This subject has come up before in the forum - I normally don't see the videos because I use HTTPS almost everywhere.

And if you're wondering why I put the link in a code box, DC will change it to HTTP if you're viewing by HTTP, and HTTPS if by HTTPS protocol.

What they need are a few rain forest zombies skilled in hunting monkeys with those little silent bows and arrows.  Also they could teach their contemporaries the culinary skills required to serve the brains in skull(there must be a term for it like a la carte but I'm not schooled in Haute cuisine.)   :)

That would prolly be a skullet - assuming fried or baked brains, of course  :-\.  Otherwise, consult Indiana Jones (Temple of Doom) for chilled monkey brains as a dessert guide.

I heard chilled brains is good with Reddi-Wip.  That's assuming the Reddi-Wip itself is chilled.   :Thmbsup:

Hmm, I'm not using https and it still shows blank space where people are obviously referring to something that should be where the blank line(s) are.

The next obvious question is then: What addons are you using that could cause it?

Have you tried Firefox Safe Mode, (hold down Shift while executing)?

How about a zombie movie where the characters like and prefer being zombies.
Where they are intellectually-superior creatures, frustrated because their favorite delicacy: brains  take such tight co-ordination and teamwork to get and because of this have to be shared among so many people you only get a small portion of the gourmet treat. You don't know how much planning and effort it takes to get it. Ordinary people make it so hard to get their brain. If they only knew how delicious they are.

What they need are a few rain forest zombies skilled in hunting monkeys with those little silent bows and arrows.  Also they could teach their contemporaries the culinary skills required to serve the brains in skull(there must be a term for it like a la carte but I'm not schooled in Haute cuisine.)   :)

But the most flavorful brains are human brains. All the best flavor comes from knowledge and experience, which humans have more of than monkeys.

If they can sneak up on monkeys and kill them with that tiny bow then humans should be a piece of cake.   :Thmbsup:

The only thing different is 360 total security.  I turned it off and restarted the browser.  No change.

Edit:  KMeleon and Opera both show the clips.  So it must be a Firefox thing.

Edit2:  Looks like it was FlashBlock.  Even though I added DC to the white list it would not even show a placeholder for the content.  Maybe it's because it's a Nightly.

Sorry for the distraction.  :)

Back to silly humor.
I just got out of my first theater show I booked and attended myself. (Checks another item off the "become a true New Yorker list!)

But now I have silly humor in my head about the word "script".

What if Mother Theresa had a daughter who followed in her footsteps? Say she grew up in New York City.

She talks to her friend Alisha, who gets straight A's in English.

"How you doin' Theresa Baby?"
"I'm doing good!"
"You mean you are doing well?"
"Yes, I'm feeling quite well. But I served over five hundred people at the soup kitchen today! I'm doin' goood!"

:)
