AH full of people trying to be funny and failing

Fighting Irish

The "thanks" button has ruined AH but lets see who can find the unfunniest reply ever

Here's an example:

Thread topic

What would you do with 50k if you got it handed to you on a plate?

Reply

I'd ask,' Why aren't my cornflakes in a bowl. How the **** am I supposed to pour milk on them'?

Secondly I'd ask,' Why only 50 cornflakes, that'd hardly feed a Somalian'.

Captain Darling

Ruined AH??? It was always a sh1thole.

I think that that poster had legitimate concerns to be honest

I actually knew that was going to be your man Sindri before I even clicked it.

Hang on now and I'll find the serious cringe fest

Edit:

Here were are, posts 36 and 58 of this thread are particularly awkward!

Nooooo please don't look through my previous posts and find stupid stuff that I said.

Cause you'll find none and are just wasting your time .

Was that trying to hard??? Oh no, I'm all self conscious about my posts now:(

I tend to agree with you op about the un-funniness of so many "ah style" replies, but going by your posts as linked to by that other lad it seems you just love to get on your high horse a lot.

I blame it on the electric shock treatment, it puts us all on different wavelengths, and I also blame the Greeks.

i wish they would get rid of many useless posters on boards .I've seen many good threads ruined by failed comedy .They may have nothing intelligent to say . PCs are getting too easy to use and the challenged are online .

TeddyTedson

In fairness **** jokes won't be thanked and generally it's only very light threads that receive an influx of initial replies all taking the piss.
Serious threads are usually treated seriously.

But yea, it can be a little annoying at times...

"Trying" way too hard??

Sindri is an AH Jedi we'll have you know - you sir, are clearly of the dark side the serious forums.

Just a reminder that it's still not too late to get in a witty reply as we're still on the first page for people on 40 posts per page.

why the fcuk did you make a new thread about this

It was pretty poor in fairness. Like some shíte Dane Cook would come out with.

aaronjumper

So trying to make other people laugh is a bad thing now?

I'd rather that than everyone here being a sour bitter cnut. The reason I like AH is because most people in it do not take things too seriously.

The OP, aint that the point of the thread ? Are you saying you thought that other thread was about cornflakes ? Is this an extension of the same joke ? I'm getting awful confused.

Fighting Irish

Don't see what those threads have to do with this one, but whatever. I know you're a mod in BA but even you have to get sick of the "OMG Jacobs Cream Crackers are only €0.66 in Tecso Mahon Point" threads when you are browsing for proper BAs that are worth leaving the house over

AH is kind of like crack. You know it's bad for you and will probably take years off your life...but it's also kind of fun.

Well you can't have your cake and eat it too.
Just have to take the bad with the good.

Also everyone has a different sense of humour. Something you think is crap others might find hilarious etc. etc.

Just ignore the stuff you don't like and let the good times roll.

St.Spodo

I'd try to make a funny if I thought what I had to say was genuinely funny. Going into a thread early to make an overwrought gag doesn't reflect well.

Bad Panda

I see AH as the type of place for the type of quick witted remarks you'd sometimes say to your friends..just a bit of craic with some debate thrown in to make us appear as though we're not complete dumbasses.

OP, I suspect you're just not funny. Maybe you're better at other things, like being serious...or something...

Most other forums are great even with the thanks system
