Does'nt come across as funny.
People who know you will probably interpret the joke as such, people who don't know you would probably think 'Who is this guy?' and who are the 'Loonies'

No wonder we stopped greeting people with phrases like "Welcome to the madhouse" :rolleyes:

Re: have you noticed
 

I coundn't give a flying fig. I care not what people think.:)


To me, there are much more important things happening in the world, than if some literally witless person, doesn't have the wit to understand what passes for humour.:)

Re: have you noticed
 

I think that probably sums you up.

Re: have you noticed
 

I suppose it does. Independent, yet with a caring side for those in the world less fortunate, all topped up with the gift of a sense humour.

Nice we agree on something.:)

Re: have you noticed
 

Garinda = humour = :)

RoyBoy = grouchy = :(

Now which do you think is more likely to put people off a forum? (answers on a postcard please to Willow, c/o soggy field, Morecambe Bay.) ;)

Re: have you noticed
 

I think you can put your name in the frame Willow.......Same old senario........Kick one they all limp.

Re: have you noticed
 

Same old scenario...have a bit of fun, and only one moans.

Re: have you noticed
 

Now that's funny :D

Margaret, whether it's me or anyone else past or present are referred to as 'Loonies' and to be called witless personally deserves a serious reply.
The aside from Willow dubbing me 'Grumpy' is also a bit rich.
Hopefully I am on this forum to stay and may get used to the 'Sarky' and 'Funny' comments by our fellow members but I think that I too am entitled to an opinion without being shouted down.

Re: have you noticed
 

All of us have 'grumpy days' at times - just some seem to have them more often than most. You have been here a while now and some of your threads have been interesting and informative.
I have noticed that you do tend to target Garinda with criticism more than others, this is beginning to look like a vendetta - so in the interests of 'a happy forum' - please ease off.

Re: have you noticed
 

Right, let me explain my post, though as always jokes that need a long winded explanation are invariably not funny.

Button's Mum said that Accy Web goes in phases, in reply to one member's question as to why he thought the forum was quiet. I agree with this point. Sometimes the forum is quieter for whatever reasons, be it holidays, or that there might not be any threads that inspire people to post. I've been a member for two and a half years, and this is what I've found to be true.

It was a strange thing to ask, particularly yesterday I thought, as there was an interesting thread about passports, which saw the return of AccyMel and Slinky, after not posting much for a while, even our M.P. Greg Pope popped on to post in the thread.

My jibe about people posting being connected to the lunar calendar was a joke. Although it's been proved that the moon's cycle can affect mood, I don't really accept the idea that it changes people into mouth foaming lunatics.

I cheekily used that post to welcome back Slinky. If anyone deserved to be offended, that I was by association calling her a lunatic, it was her. As someone who has a sense of humour, I know she wouldn't be hurt by the joke.

For some people to be so paranoid that they think every post is aimed at them, is quite sad and delusional. For one thing the person who has taken offence has been posting recently, therefore my lunatic comment wasn't aimed at them, but the missing members.

I guess I'm just well asnd truly blessed, unlike others, that God gave me a sense of humour.

Praise be...as Thora Hird would have said.:)

I've always had my knockers, one more makes no difference, especially a droopy, dried up, saggy one.:D
