Ignored Humor

RedHawk,

Both myself and my wife are prior Airforce. She was O-1 and I was E-4. Gootch's sense of humor is practically ignored in most cases. Everywhere that I have been(quite a bit of military bases) mostly just ignore jokes like this. These are the kind of uncreative lackluster jokes you hear so much that it pretty much goes in one ear and out the other.

In some cases when our unit's commanding officer would be visiting he or she would actually give an order for someone to tell a joke of this nature. When everyone laughs it's not really because the joke was funny, it's mostly because the commanding officer is laughing. It's one of those kinds of laughs.

Is That Funny To You?

:I dunno Hamsi. I see a strong case for subjugation developing.

Is that supposed to be a joke? If it is, I'm not laughing. Do you think that men should reign superior or something? People like you get what they deserve when they get fired from their jobs for gender discrimination. I take some small amount of satisfaction knowing that your attitude will only get you thrown in jail here in the U.S. As for outside the U.S., that attitude of yours brutalizes women for being a physically weaker sex.

I have two daughters. I'm teaching them how to deal with people like you. I wouldn't be surprised if your delusional sense of humor has already gotten you in trouble in your current employment. How utterly inconsiderate and tasteless. Your humor seems to base itself in the delight of oppressing women.

Let me explain to everyone outside the U.S. Here in america people like him have to find hiding places so that the rest of the country won't find their racist cults and throw them in the slammer. Sure, he can get away with sayings things like that on the internet but I assure you the majority of the people in this country do not agree with him. You can't discriminate on the bases of gender. That is our law. We aren't "subjugating to them" nor did we "let them go free".

This knucklehead's been trying my patience ever since he mouthed off in 'why the hatred' Bjorn. His sense of humor and mine don't mix.

I can see Consis, how combative you've been feeling towards me. I let some of your comments slip by becuase I felt that eventually you would leave well enough alone. Plus, I'd been too busy for much of anything with the exception of literary sound bites.

Alas, my expectations for you were far too grandiose. When the storm comes, when things get really nasty, don't say you weren't warned.

Support of an esteemed colleague

I don't know the reason behind an insult like that but it certainly does not contribute to anything in this forum. Secularism rears its ugly head I see. Just like Private Hudson said, there are close-minded people in every country in every part of the world. If you had paid any attention to his posts you would clearly see that what he says carries a great deal of rationalism and awareness to it. His posts are well thought out and I for one value his opinions greatly. Dropping in to ignorantly classify him with the rest of europe and putting him down with uneducated vague expressionism is representative of the contents of his second to last post in this thread. Furthermore, insulting the young and very creative Wolfman is just what I'd call poison. It's poison to instill the youths of today with secularist racist ignorance.

The question is: "Why the Hatred" not "Who do you Hate".

Honestly what does one hope to accomplish by taking time to write, "I don't like you"? In whatever fashion your closed mind could possibly spit out, I honestly don't know how spreading your diseased insults helps anyone. The only thing it does is spread the hatred that the rest of us are thoughtfully trying to vaccinate.

Alex Keaton

Yeah Peacemaker,

Alex Keaton is a fictional character from an old 80's t.v. show called, "Family Ties". The character was played by none other than, Michael J. Fox. Yeah, I think the reference to Alex Keaton is to associate a certain level of detachment from reality with a focus on political views(as did the character). Alex was usually criticized for being too smart for his own good. He was arrogant due to his superior academic achievments. He would often find himself the victim of his own schemes. He would candidly put down his two sisters as he considered them to be of lower intelligence(to which this was disproven by the younger of the two). Also, as I recall, Keaton's favorite president was Nixon. It's an insult to be related to Keaton because this is a character considered to be out-of-touch with mainstream american politics and average middle-class people. I'm not sure which definition The_Gootch was going for but it is definately not a compliment.

Personally, I disagree because Wolfman has a much better attitude towards people than does this character. I think Wolfman has a great deal more manners in his posts when dealing with other members. I have never seen him belittling anyone nor have I seen him show an interest in Nixon. The anology seems to be part of an ill-defined miniscule vocabulary, to which the end purpose was neither beneficial nor explanatory to the rest of the members reading the post.

Yes, in a word, I basically said that The_Gootch seems to be a citizen of his own little world where they make up their own little definitions to insult other people. I guess it was funny to the only person who could understand it. I, however, was not amused.
