Some ATHF is good. But you liked that f**king XKCD about God
and R2D2 so your sense of humor is obviously broken. :P
Yeah, I can find humor in just about anything except modern "comedies"
which are nothing more than the same sex and drug jokes over and over
and over and over again until they make you sick with their stupidity
and the stupidity they assume (rightly?) that most of the viewers are
capable of. Those, I don't like.

I've tried watching ATHF but I just didn't like it. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I watched it at about 2 AM.
Maybe. Though a lot of people can't seem to believe that I enjoy it and I don't do/haven't ever done drugs. That could be it too.
I had the same problem liking Pink Floyd in high school.
I have the same problem with Magma now, one of my friends asked me this exact question: "How can you possibly enjoy this stuff without being on crack or something?"
We just have too refined a taste for them to fully comprehend.
True.
I never have that problem because I do drugs all the time.

The thing I don't understand is why people think they are funny.
I know! I've watched them with friends, and I get maybe one or two laughs out of the entire movie. Plus, don't get me started on Will Ferrell...everything he does is the same as everything else he's done, and none of it is overly funny to me! I'll take my Charlie Chaplin movies and the Naked Gun movies and Kung Pow! and such any day.

You forgot the Pink Panther, Peter Sellers is hilarious.

Yeah, I like A Shot in the Dark more, and I still need to see most of the series. In general, I just don't like the majority of the comedies from 1990 on. I'm like Walter except with comedy.

Not a lot, just thinking that we'll be moving to the Unlucky Shred soon. You?
Just got back from classes, so I can start drinking in glorious excess. Too bad my flatmates are being pussies.
One of my friends here at school (who knows I don't drink at all) was getting mad at me today because I wouldn't drink. I don't care if it is a holiday regularly associated with drinking, that's no reason for me to do it.

I saw a drawing of a pitcher of beer on the internet, that is as close to drinking as I've come.

Yeah Person, the new XKCD is f**king stupid and a repeat of five or six comics he's already done and is clearly only intended to be made a poster to sell so Randall doesn't have to get a real job.
