[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] RE The Minority thing. It's unfortunate, but if you deconsturct humour, you will often find that it onvolces putting people into groups, at that the laughter comes at the expense of one group. Even the worst joke in the world: "What's brown and sticky?" "A stick" could be claimed to come from putting the reciever into one group (a group clever enough to undertand what you were suppossed to think, and the subversion when it becomes something else) and everyone else into another group (people who didn't get the joke). Everyone is in a minority. So you don't see people going around cracking "straight jokes" (although I'm sure someone can supply a few), there are still Black jokes, white jokes, chinese jokes, japanese jokes, male jokes, femlae jokes, redhead jokes, blonde jokes, old people jokes, American jokes, English jokes, Scottish jokes, sheep-shagging jokes, and so on. You eliminate them all, this place will threaten to become even more repressed and anal that it already is. [/QB][/QUOTE]
