    Damn. That’s what it is you know, Brits carry politeness and submission to the extreme of rationalization, denial and self deception. Germans now carry honesty and non imposition to the point of rationalism, denial and self deception. I guess that leaves americans and aussies.
  • Humor is indeed a science, and we can explain it scientifically. It’s been done.

    Humor is indeed a science, and we can explain it scientifically. It’s been done. Just as narrative arcs are constrained by a grammar and semantics, so is humor – to particular rules. Outside of which humor fails. Unfortunately, like all narrative arcs, it’s class dependent. You know, you can learn a lot playing verbal tennis with me. Most people do. Or… well, most people with more than room temperature IQ’s do…. Humor is an exceptional means of educating those lacking agency to pursue truth alone. loz

  • “As a bit of occasional amusement, I try to tease silly self righteous people in

    “As a bit of occasional amusement, I try to tease silly self righteous people into demonstrating the fact, and then post the conversation for my followers to laugh at. It’s a sophisticated form of humor – with a touch of irony: that the underclass can vote, or even speak in public.” (FYI: On a lark, I’m teasing people on the Left Wing Feminist Show ‘the View’. Sick today and programming is … too hard.)

    Different classes use different forms vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, judgement and humor. Pls don’t continue to reinforce my argument for me. 😉 You only demonstrate it further with any retort. (From elsewhere)
