Ratobhaley - "Why do you define funny according to what other's perceive? " To be brutally honest, I actually don't. I think you were quite funny in some of your posts even though I might not agree with everything you say (no biggie there - rationale people can always have their differences,no?). So let me give you due credit for you sense of humor and the energy that you bring to the table. Regardless of anything we may have said to each other on this or other threads, I have only good words to say of you on this account. You have a tendency to speak your mind and so do I. That's why I have fun hearing you out and I can respect your outspokenness. I'll take your direct , sometimes shock-jock approach, any day over the deluded wishy-washy chicken $hit I see all over Sajha everyday. But, I do think this: humor that is based on putting someone down, or being deliberately offensive, whether intentional or perceived, gets weary after a while. It usually falls flat and dry and can be taken as a sign of poor taste. I perceived some deliberate offense in your otherwise brilliant sense of humor, hence, I chose to make that rather flowered up comment. I did that against my better judgement and I should prolly have been more direct because if anyone is capable of taking thinks straight, it might probably be you. So my comments still stem from a sense of likability and respect that I have for you (not that you could care less for what I think I suppose). I had to say what I felt and that's what was really behind that comment. Best regards.
