Sorry, couldn't help it, the idea of announcing a parody thread is retarded. This is a parody of a parody thread that is all about announcing that it is a parody.


Parroty.

What? I made a legitimate point. Announcing a parody IS retarded. The only parody here was in the title. The thread is 100% legit (except for the crapping)

I agree, announcing a parody is retarded...I did it to make a point of how stupid it is...kind of defeats the purpose, unless people are really that stupid....

Your point? I've gotten a vacation for a parody too. Doesn't mean I have to be a parody Nazi. I made a valid point. It's the person who makes the 50th air conditioner parody who is the problem, not an amusing title to demonstarte a point, or to subtly make fun of someone else. Parody is, IMO an important part of our (both western, and AT specifically) culture.

You made a parody thread about parodies, like what I did.

The guys that complain about parody threads are mildly annoying. But the guys that make a parody thread complaining about a guy that made a parody thread of a parody thread gives me a headache.

What, it's recursion. Just follow the loop back out and you'll be just fine.

@ Krk...if a law is unjust, one should not try to get others punished under that law, one should discourage its enforcement. Thanks for bumping this.
