Please, no Irishbashing.

Please, can we quit it with the stupid please-no-bashing jokes? It was funny, a long time ago, for all the wrong reasons. I have a Master's degree in Teh Funneh, and I'm writing my thesis on how jokes get funnier the less often and the more appropriately they're applied.

(Not that anyone's allowed to bash my thesis except the examination committee, mind you)

	I tried to stop myself typing this, but couldn't: They're in yur committee bashin' yur thesis? What was the original context of *bashing, since you mention it? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

mcity did the "please, no furbashing" thing on two posts in a row once, in absolute seriousness, because some of the wankers in questions were furries. Since this is ostensibly a place specifically for stupidbashing, and some of the furries in questions were quite stupid, people reacted to this instruction rather negatively. And by "rather" I mean "very". It became a meme to make fun of the concept.

Now, of course,

mcity feels the need to mention it in every frigging post he makes, to make himself feel like we're laughing with him and not at him. Sadly, this just makes people laugh at him more. It's a vicious cycle, really.

	Ah. "I'm not posting this because I want to argue about it" sort of thing. (My own personal experience with it aside, that's just never a good thing to do.) (Reply to this)(Parent)

	The only reason I do it is because I originated the meme in the first place while making an ass of myself. It's some kind of e-Penance. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
