Hi Nicolas and Hannah! Hannah: No, I didn't. I'm one of the few people on here who doesn't say they're going to leave, and then stick around for another twenty minutes. :-P
Ok!! It's fine. I live like seven miles east of Foley, and about 30 minutes west of Nowthen. :D

You're only about an hour away from us! A lot closer than some other people I know. Even people I know in person. :-)

Well, your sense of humor probably isn't normal. But then, there really isn't a such thing as normal. Because anytime you find someone or something that's considered normal, everything else is going to be different from it, which makes the "normal" standard abnormal.

Sarah

Yay!! :D
*is slightly confused*
That we live so close!! :D

That's what I figured, but I wanted to make sure. :-)

What does an "on" or "off" beat sense of humor even mean? Are there different rhythms of laughter that you can provoke?

Exactly, especially for senses of humor. Normal, as my grandmother would say, is a setting on the dryer (or washer, I forget which).

And people too.
Haha! Your grandmother certainly has good insight. :-)

They (whoever "they" are) would probably say she had an "off-beat sense of humor". I wonder if anyone has an "on-beat" sense of humor? I have met those who were sort of "near-misses" as far as sense of humor went, which makes me rather worried. Was that what they meant when they said "Off-beat"?

C463494e50b4898d9130318781821cbb?s=128&d=mm

Sarah

I highly doubt that anyone's sense of humor is really "on-beat". If anyone decided their sense of humor was "on-beat", everyone else's would be "off-beat" to them, which means that this person's sense of humor was thereby "off-beat".

While you are here, I must tell you a joke that I think you will appreciate.

A horse walks into a bar. The bartender says to the horse, "Why the long face?" The horse, incapable of comprehending human communication, promptly snorts, kicks over a table, and trots back out of the bar.

Margaret Eddy

I still feel slightly ill every time I hear that joke, but at least yours has a happy ending. What about kicking the bar-tender for an even happier ending?

Or, on second thought, you could make him comprehending of human communication and he could say, "Because I'm a little horse."

Sarah

Bye Margaret! I'll do my best, but I'm pretty sure it's illegal to own a horse here, so I shouldn't have too much trouble.

I'm doing pretty well! How about you?

Sorry, I had to go then. Ok!! Our dog was sprayed by a skunk last night, so I was stuck with the job of cleaning him up, and our cousins came over to spend the day, so we played some games. :D So we have been busy. :)
