Have there been any Fluther questions/discussions this funny (link inside)?

Asked by drdoombot (8145points) December 26th, 2009

Some of these had me laughing out loud, particularly “Why is my girlfriend so unhappy?” and “When a guy says GO MAKE ME A SANDWICH, what’s a good comeback?”

I’ve mined the Fluther archives in the past, but nothing on Fluther has made me laugh as hard as some of those. If you have links, please post them (and I know about the “cake in the frizzer” and the “boy under the pool”).

Is it even possible for these types of questions to appear on Fluther with the mods watching our every move like a dogs near a dinner table? Is Fluther worse or better off without these types of questions?

Fluther is simply different from Yahoo! You get to choose where you’d rather be. Read the guidelines for this site and decide whether you like them or not.

Many of the Yahoo! questions mentioned have been asked here (and booed offstage not only by mods but by the collective).

I’ve noticed that YA questions are the ones most often found on Failblog.

I believe that it wouldn’t HURT anything to allow a little bit of humorous jokes -questions etc posted…

The medical community says that humor in our lives helps us to live LONGER…. and is enjoyable ; at least in my opinion which doesn’t count , I guess…

There is to be no humor or jocularity in “The Collective”. Please report to a Moderator immediately for reprogramming.

@Corporate_Avenger I haven’t really seen any….

See, I just don’t find that sort of thing funny. Stupid people don’t amuse me. Then again, I’m a fuddy-duddy.

Corporate_Avenger's avatar

@gemiwing What sort of thing do you not find amusing? You find humor not amusing? Now THAT’S funny.

@Corporate_Avenger : I can’t speak for @gemiwing, but the concept of stuffing pizza up a butt crack does not crack me up, but that’s just me.

Corporate_Avenger's avatar

@gailcalled Ahhhh, I misread the intent of the answer. Yeah, no…I don’t either. Donuts in the ass is funny, but pizza(?)...that’s just gross.

@gemiwing I thought you meant my last answer…I was cornfused.

I try and post funny questions from time to time… Some of them remain!

But they’re not as stupid as the Y!A questions. Nor as sad.

I was banned from Yahoo Answers for asking about a vibrator, but people can ask those stupid questions?
“If a vagina isn’t used can it heal up and close?”
“can I put my peepee in my cat is it going to be pregnant?”
“Ping pong ball stuck in my vagina. please help me get it out!?”
really?!

Humor is subjective.

To be honest I very much enjoy how much more mature fluther is in comparison with other sites. But from time to time I do miss the occassional laugh that would appear from some crazy person. In general I think fluther is better off as it stops our brains turning mushy.

If the new people hate it here so much why are they still coming? I just don’t get it.

It depends on your sense of humor. I asked this question recently and several of the answers made me laugh out loud.

drdoombot's avatar

People misunderstand my intention with this question. I love Fluther. I’m just questioning the way it works and thinking out loud. Is it so wrong to consider having things a little differently?

Corporate_Avenger's avatar

“Is it so wrong to consider having things a little differently?”

@drdoombot Yes, it is. Report for reprogramming IMMEDIATELY!

Violet's avatar

@drdoombot I don’t think there is anything wrong with that

Actually, I find it funny to read @gailcalled saying stuffing pizza up a butt crack very funny.

gemiwing's avatar

@Zen_Again You have a lovely personality. Yeah, it gave me a chuckle too.

gailcalled's avatar

@Zen_Again : That is how humor works. Surprise your audience.
