    Both are Hawk fans...neither are amused. Lighten up Francis.

    I wasn't amused by the others either. But of course it's easier to assume "Well they're Hawk fans, that must be why." You know, it IS possible that we have other reasons for thinking it's not all that funny. Kind of like how Munchausen's patients actually DO get sick from time to time, just like the rest of us. Just because they are usually lying doesn't mean they ALWAYS are.

    There were also one or two Clone fans who didn't really find it funny, either. But like a Clown (and I rarely throw that around. Clowns to me are like Tavern Hoks are to you guys), you ignore them and want to make it out like only Hawk fans don't find it amusing.

    No, I ignore them because this is CycloneFanatic. They are Cyclone fans. On a Cyclone site. You are a Hawk fan. You are obviously lost.

    Wow, for some reason the posters who are really dense around here have been coming around the past day or so.

    If your logic for why the two Hawk fans didn't find it funny was because they are Hawk fans, then what reason do the Cyclone fans who don't like it have? It's flawed logic to assume we don't find it funny because we're Hawk fans when CYLCONE fans also didn't find it humorous. Maybe it's just not really that funny to everyone?

    South Park? South Park is the definition of using something profane for shock value. South Park humor about as bottom of the barrell as it comes.

    Bear in mind that I'm 20 years old. Most of it is perverse humor, but I find humor in it beyond the profanity. I especially like the stuff they did with Mel Gibson.
