That’s why I asked you “IF” it was an attempt at humor.

You explained that it was an attempt at humor - a decidedly and remarkably poor attempt, true - but, according to you, an attempt, nonetheless. I’ll take you word for it.

Maybe you’re right. Maybe in the hands of a talented comedian with stage presence, he/she may have been able to dig up some acid-humor out of the idea behind what you wrote, rather than what you actually did write.

What Captainpaintball wrote is funny, because it's probably true.

Just picture Sam Kinnison or Edie Murphy or Richard Pryor doing something along the lines of what I or what was written in #107, and you may agree. Half of comedy is having someone crazy enough onstage to pull off the ‘b’ list material. Ben Stein or Al Gore (or me) doing it may not work.
