Uhm... I don't get it.

"Get the hell off our internet."

...Ah. So I see. Who's this "our" you speak of?

"Get the hell off our internet."

Yeah. Hum.. Off "our" meds are we?

"Get the hell off our internet."

Broken record much?

"Get the hell -"

Heard you the first time and it was just as pointless then. Thank you, drive thru.

I'm trying very hard to imagine that the reason I don't get this is that I'm too stupid to get it. It's very possible, I'm not very smart. So assuming that I'm not very smart, can you please explain what I'm supposed to be getting from this? Because I don't like being the dumb guy in the room who's not in on the joke.

posted by humblepigeon at 3:20 AM on July 17, 2007

If I may venture, it seems as if Super Internet Fun Time is a posting vehicle for some friends or associates with much more time than sense, who post things they find on the net or invent themselves (drawings, proposed languages) that they think are humorous, but are rarely are more than mildly amusing and often pointless and devoid of anything that's funny outside their circle.

That is to say, if you are one of their club, you giggle uncontrollably at a picture of a man in an Ottawa Senators ball cap with the caption: Hey Buddee!. The rest of us just click away and never go back.

I haven't figured this site out. I think that's cause there's not exactly anything to figure out. And that's OK. Not everything needs to be figured out. And this is just the kind of site that might come in very handy someday, in some unforeseen and as yet unforseeable confluence of circumstances. You never know.

Really. You never know.

slogger:

Slogger, the proper vernacular is to abbreviate "There is No Mefi-Cabal". So, in effect, your sentence should have read "As an aspiring member to the MeFi cabal (TINMC)...".

This follows form with the proper reference to the anti-spam Lumber Cartel (TINLC).

It feels like Aqua Teen Hunger Force used to before I started to think it was funny. I'm not sure if my brain has to reach a certain threshold of humor to get this, too, or if in this case I'm wandering along an asymptote. I'll have to come back later and see. Or, I might just forget about this entirely. Time will tell.
