I agree, it’s like explaining a joke… not really worth it in the end. It’s not even that I don’t think it’s funny, and I’m not even worried about it. I just kinda wanted to get it… like maybe I was missing something, that’s all. I get that we all look down on people for one reason or another… maybe the funny part is that it’s a vicious cycle??

Okay, I guess that’s funny. If that’s it, I guess I do get it!

Thanks

I would not worry too much. Most people find that there are one or two of my drawings that they don’t really find funny. Explaining a cartoon doesn’t usually help much – we just have different senses of humour.

when i lived in university halls in my first year (in u.s. before coming to the uk) i lived in a tower block on the 8th (top) floor. the elevator became a necessity realistically. but there was an unspoken rule that no one who lived on the 4th floor or below really should take the elevator, if only becasue they would delay us top floor-ers from getting up there, and besides they were ‘being lazy’. they’d get in and press the button for “2″ and the rest of us would glare at them and roll our eyes at each other to show our disgust.

and then the lift kept breaking down. we always blamed those lazy 2nd and 3rd floor people.

i’ve relaxed about that kinda thing in my older age.
