I don't know. I have to agree with Arrowfeather, on this one. It ain't
funny. I like Mark Twain's advice, that Shiro included in his Re:.
Fortunately, it looks like I ain't got to reform, as I ain't in the
majority.
On the other hand, I ain't seen enough of these frog and bird cartoons
to be able to decide. Cartoons don't always come out as funny as intended.
Maybe some of the other ones are funny. Or maybe there are cultural
factors at work, here. Where is Casso from? Could be what he thinks is
funny, don't always translate well. Or, I reiterate, maybe this just
happened to be a miss. I reckon everyone cain't put steel on target,
ever'time. I think I'll read some more, afore I make a total decision.
But anyway you look at it, it's pretty silly to bother taking the time
to write a condemnation of an ascii cartoon, or a defense --- takes longer
than to read it. Then again, maybe people got little else to do. I reckon
I kin allow myse'f a moment to sum up my thinkin' on this one:
Well shit, Froggy.
We'll just have
Man here says we to get them,
weren't funny, Birdzie. next time.
