I am what I am

[LibraryLady]

Then how do you know when to recite "Jabberwocky?"

I didn't say it had to be my hat.

 

[Ysidro]

Tell me more about these v-necks.....

 

[paximperium]

Only if I were Popeye the Sailor Man. And I'm not.

Start eating that spinach.

After following all your responses in this thread, I have decided you do have a sense of humo(u)r. You just left it off your list. I'll take back what I said earlier.

The evidence to make that conclusion is still lacking. Skeptics should withhold judgment until more evidence is forthcoming.

@LL: Please provide us with a knock knock joke for our analysis.

Robert Burns
To A Louse
On Seeing One On A Lady's Bonnet, At Church
1786
Type: Poem

Ha! whaur ye gaun, ye crowlin ferlie?
Your impudence protects you sairly;
I canna say but ye strunt rarely,
Owre gauze and lace;
Tho', faith! I fear ye dine but sparely
On sic a place.

Ye ugly, creepin, blastit wonner,
Detested, shunn'd by saunt an' sinner,
How daur ye set your fit upon her-
Sae fine a lady?
Gae somewhere else and seek your dinner
On some poor body.

Swith! in some beggar's haffet squattle;
There ye may creep, and sprawl, and sprattle,
Wi' ither kindred, jumping cattle,
In shoals and nations;
Whaur horn nor bane ne'er daur unsettle
Your thick plantations.

Now haud you there, ye're out o' sight,
Below the fatt'rels, snug and tight;
Na, faith ye yet! ye'll no be right,
Till ye've got on it-
The verra tapmost, tow'rin height
O' Miss' bonnet.

My sooth! right bauld ye set your nose out,
As plump an' grey as ony groset:
O for some rank, mercurial rozet,
Or fell, red smeddum,
I'd gie you sic a hearty dose o't,
Wad dress your droddum.

I wad na been surpris'd to spy
You on an auld wife's flainen toy;
Or aiblins some bit dubbie boy,
On's wyliecoat;
But Miss' fine Lunardi! fye!
How daur ye do't?

O Jeany, dinna toss your head,
An' set your beauties a' abread!
Ye little ken what cursed speed
The blastie's makin:
Thae winks an' finger-ends, I dread,
Are notice takin.

O wad some Power the giftie gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us!
It wad frae mony a blunder free us,
An' foolish notion:
What airs in dress an' gait wad lea'e us,
An' ev'n devotion!

 

[LibraryLady]

So, you're calling me a louse?

 

[Cainkane1]

Shalom LibraryLady. The only thing I will address is that I agree with you that some of the finest conversations I have ever had was with an under 6 child. Its usually a one way conversation though. I love the sound of a child talking and the way they express things.

 

[a_unique_person]

Argue.

I thought you were going to say you were Popeye, the Sailor Man. One of the great Philosophers of Afternoon TV.

Eat babies? Moi?

Yes, there are people on these forums who do indeed talk about Jews as a monolith. I am addressing them. They aren't listening, but I don't really care.

I worked for Sportime.com for 6 years and its owned and operated by two very decent jewish men. Over half of the employees there were Jewish. I learned to respect them and quite frankly enjoy working around and with them. Along came a merger and goodbye Sportime but it was fine while it lasted.

Using a complicated analysis and a Tri-logarythmic Delta Graph, LL's knock knock joke got a score of 12985x10*12 on the Sense of Humor Digital Scale(SHDS).

This objectively falsifies Gord's hypothesis that LL has a sense of humor. We have to conclude that LL is humorless.
