Hey, Aussies, come back to loc.au where you are appreciated for your deadpan
humour and laidback attitude to family-friendliness. It’s a sad sad world
that can’t appreciate our sense of humour and it appears that’s most of
Lugnet these days. Sigh!

Humour is a very serious business, CL Kerry. I have learned that some things
are far too serious to joke about.

Are you keeping a mental list of them? I would suggest you take that Thought
Leadership, and turn it into actual leadership with a page detailing the Things
That Are Too Serious To Joke About, so that newcomers don’t make the same
mistakes we have.
I too have learned this recently and would like to contribute to the list.
Things that are too serious to joke about:
- Nazis and/or nazism
- anything else that might upset Germans
- sorting mech bays
- colour change, and failing to internalise it and move on
- posting items for sale in the wrong group
- tatoos/bra straps
to name a few.
HTH
Cheers,
Allister
