Is there such thing as too much asininity?

Sometimes I carry a joke to far, I see something clever that someone did, that I had laughed and laughed about, but then I try to do the same or even more, usually people don’t think I’m being funny anymore. I was wondering if that is wrong.

No that’s right always carry a joke far too far, beyond milking it to death, after all the ultimate punchline is when you tell someone you went too far, in a humorous way. :slight_smile:

There’s a joke that comedians like to use to prove a point about humour, it is a joke that always changes and always is used to excess and to such a disregard of taste that the more you disregard humour, taste, good sense the more it becomes humour. I know it’s name, do you? They made a film about it. :slight_smile:

I’m gonna go with my instinct here and just say no. No there is not.

I don’t know its name. I had a clever idea today. I noticed that ilikenametha was back, and I remembered Captain Crunk’s mockery of his threads, I thought I could do the same, and intristically imply that I was only copying his idea, then I thought I could further that making this thread also in the same fashion, which intristically implys that I’m going to far with my copying his mockery. But, what you said brings up a similar question. Is it going to far to explain one’s jokes in minute detail?

Oh you already know the answer to that.

I honestly don’t know the answer. I was just guessing when I said no.

I hope I’m not being asinine, but maybe we should continue this conversation. Why is it that you don’t know if it it’s true?

Because I’m high as a kite.

The joke can result in creating a change in appreciation the scripts we allow ourselves to follow, circumstance by circumstance. It forces a uneasy cause… the Malamati method isn’t too different from the Cynic in this regard (truth is, there isn’t much difference between the two philosophies, the latter is likely a direct continuation absorbed into Islam).

Comedic timing in how you continue in pushing it out can lead to great outbursts of laughter here… don’t just drone, skip a few beats in the droning, effect how your tone is coming out- grow big or small.

There’s been a lot of asininity going on lately (cough), so I thought I would reopen this topic.

Too much for whom in what context?
I mean, for me it can be too much sometimes. There can be a manic, unpleasant edge…when I am the source, when they are, when we both/all are.

ButI don’t think there can be a rule about what is too much.

There is that saying: “You are being a perfect ass.” Now if you are so , can you be too perfect of an ass? Can you carry your perfection too far?

I recently made a joke, but no one was laughing, I think I may have even made someone snap.

It was more of a crack.
