After all these years, you’re not going to explain context to SirJohn.

What is this, irony? If anything I said was clear it was that a rubber chicken is not funny without the right kind of  context. Apparently he doesn't understand that, and you agree that context doesn't matter, then tell him he isn't going to explain it to me. You're right. Those how don't understand context are not going to be explaining it to others.

And humourless progressives are not going to be explaining a sense of humour to me either.

Like Louis CK? There's a difference between being left and being progressive, as in spouting words like intersectionality and believing only white people can be racist and embracing Islam with all the dedication of the Taliban simply because most of those who worship it are brown people.

Intersectionality....the “radical” idea that people’s experiences are shaped by who they are and who others believe them to be.

White racism, the totally outlandish notion that our institutions were established over generations without any regard for anyone other than the white majority. Tough to believe.

“Embracing Islam with all the dedication of the Taliban”

This is the best one. This is also known as pointing out that the Taliban and ISIS are killing and oppressing other Muslims, it’s the totally unimaginable idea that there’s as broad differences amongst Muslim people as there are between Muslim people and others. Such wild and crazy ideas.

Mostly the degree of asshat fanaticism.

The Taliban and ISIS ARE Muslims. And they appear to have way more zeal for killing and oppressing non-Muslims any time they can get at them.

You let me know when the next gay pride parade is in any Muslim nation. Or which of the 57 Muslim nations treats men and women equally, or non-Muslims the same as they do Muslims. There's 57 of them across the world and every one of them is a shithole. That's coincidence, I suppose.

I certainly did not anticipate that a thread about Mike's Good Day would turn out into an all-out right vs left brawl.

I guess every forum will have at least one who will drag any/every topic back to their same bias. The other place had HE and nano thermite.

I heard there were tears.  Currently it's the Ashes that have me curled up blubbering, but I'm sure Pass the Egg means a lot to a lot of people.
