encyclopedia dramatica isn't funny
« on: January 11, 2008, 07:49:10 PM »
Really, it's not. Its authors seem to think that racist=funny. The writing is garbled, and they seem to be having a completion over who can write the word "fag" the most. This description makes it sound more interesting than it is, like a bit of juvenile, hard-boiled, say-anything rants.

It isn't. Write fag, and nigger, and Jew-bitch on cards. Do the same with some prepositions, nouns, and verbs. Throw them up in the air. That's the sentence quality and analysis level you'll find.

Who started this thing and why? What is it supposed to be for, or whom?
Really, I'm curious. I'm guessing this is s’posed to appeal to my age-group...What am I missing? Is it all a private joke that's only funny and interesting if you're in on secret information....It's just so bad. Really, unless the authors have some sort of disability, they should be embarrassed they've produced that their writing for a creative enterprise.

The point is to piss off sensitive little fags like you who can't read the fucking ED POLICY which explicitly states its to piss people off so we can mock them.

Its for people with a sense of humor who don't get pissed off by touchy words that were spoken by people for the sole purposes of pissing off touchy people.

You double nigger.

but you didnt say what is funny about it Niles. Any nine year old can just write racist swear words or put "hilarious" animal sperm u tube videos up. Big deal. It is not like it is witty at all. i dont consider myself a prude but it is simply not funny. It does not satarize anyone or anything, it makes no real point. is it some kind of dada thing? or just another example of the assinine shit that it all over the net. I am not suggesting it does not have a right to be there but how is it funny?

If you can't see the satire there around the epithets you're either hypersensitive or trying to act like saying a bad word negates the other words around it.

Lets face it, its funny to mature people that grown adults act like little kids and go OMG A BAD WORD when someone announces and billboards that they say such words to make people mad, and then get mad at them in such a  predictable way!

Honestly, if I say "Im going to say a racist word to make you mad" and you react to someone uttering one, you're a baby and deserve to get mad and mocked for it.

So that is it? Someone said a bad word or was racist and someone got offended? That is not satire, it is what 12 year old boys do to piss off their mothers. It would be satirical if they found a tape of Ted Haggard in bondage leather and posted it. it would be satire if they showed one of the moralists they are allegedly harpooning cheating on the wife or beating the kids.
but anyone can just think of a bunch of "rude" words, put them on the net and claim that those who legitimately question the merits just don't get it. Perhaps it is all to well understood because it is unfunny and lame.

Ok. That answers my question. It is not supposed to be funny. It is meant to piss the target off and amuse the originators.

I wasn't pissed off. I thought that it wasn't funny.

I'm not pissed off by the whole "post-modern" racism thing. It's ubiquitous enough that if I were, I'd have to become a Luddite. Sure, it helps create a climate where it's "ok," even "cool," to be a racist, but there are so many worse things, it really doesn't register on my "offence" barometer. Especially, not the racism of semi-literates, who couldn't make a point if given a knife and a block of really soft wood

Uh, how'd you get that I'm a Sue Scheff supporter? Not everyone circles their life around this woman, you know. I wasn't even talking about your article, but the site overall, as I sampled it, randomly

I don't get offended by touchy words. There's lot's of grand writing with all kinds of vulgarities; Irvine Welsh comes to mind. My point is that Dramatica makes no"humor" around the touchy words

Yeah. If I were 9, and slow, I'd feel a real taboo breaker saying a naughty word, too

Did you see the banned Warner brothers cartoons made during ww2?

The "black people are funny and dumb" ones weren't as creepy as the anti-"jap" propaganda, considering how many Japanese civilians were killed during the "lesser evil" Hiroshima bombings.

The cartoon ends with lots of Japanese people dying, not "cartoon" dying where they get up again, but really, really dying. Their death was the punch line to a joke. It was really scary because the "feeling" the flick broadcast was "hate" i.e. George Orwell's "hates" (think that's the word) where Oceana party workers get together to “hateâ€

The Nazi regime used the reasoning that the Jews were destabilizing the economy and monopolizing jobs as a reason to discriminate against them.

The KKK used similar tactics, humor was a big one, taking white mens jobs was another.  When interviewing KKK members they really felt they were not prejudice against black people but merely standing up for their rights or just having fun claiming most northern people didn’t get the joke or lacked a sense of humor.

As a society we tolerated this believing the right thing was being done, but as we all know it wasn’t just humor or immaturity it was hatred with a veil over it and that is what is going on here.   These are not just “Dumb Blond” jokes it is hatred and no matter how you phrase it this will not change the fact that it hurts people.
