You can't give away punch-line before you finish telling the joke.

So the "Awesome Jokes" thread on GT doesn't work for you?

I found it funny. It is one of the threads that I always check specifically because of its title.

It actually does work for me. Some really good jokes there.
But it does not give away the punchlines of the jokes. Back to square one...

See the difference..?

It's like rick-roll gags. The first time it was ever done it was funny.

How about we start a sticky thread "rick-rolls" and people post links that everyone can not click since they know it's a rick-roll?

That's what putting the conus thread in "humor" would be doing. No different.

Funniest thing I've seen here in a long time, and it was absolutely made more funny by the expectation I had clicking the thread title. Absolutely more funny because I thought it was gonna be a new SS, AND it was so well executed on his part. Gold.

I added a disclaimer to mine so as to not confuse anyone.
I couldn't find a way to edit the thread title so I can add [joke] to the beginning. Moderators, feel free to delete it.

Sorry if I annoyed anyone with my attempt at humour, it won't happen again.

Didn't annoy me at all, and I'm sorry you felt you had to change it.

"This is a joke. This is only a joke. Had this been serious you would have been directed to tune to your local Konelrad station for instructions on how to deal with it. This is a joke. This is only a joke."

I remember the first good laugh i had at your expense was when you tried to make a cell phone call at the 2008 subsim meet and they answered the phone...

"Hey" you said "where are you guys?"

and the person answered "ummm... standing right next to you."

And now the joke's on you. It was Neal who made that call, and it was to me.

The big joke on me at that meet was when I had Dan for a roommate for four days, and told Neal what a great guy I though Dan was and would really like to meet their spokesman, Elanaiba, someday.

Had no idea they were one and the same.

For those of you not around at that time:

That never gets old. Happened to us the first breakfast morning of the 2009 meet.
