Here was me looking at the thread title trying to figure it was it always like that and I just never noticed or did something change. Glad I came here to check
Which ones? The pro or anti vegan ones? ( I think some of the meat eating ones are funny if that helps?) ...Can't imagine pro life jokes would have been much better than vegan ones to be honest At least meat eating jokes can be a bit funny, abortion jokes....

I'm just came across this ... tell me it's not funny I dare ya ... :pac:

Getting upset about a non-vegan hotdog costume is both funny and stupid tbh!

Easy peasy (provided peas are allowed) - no caffeinated drinks that had to be brewed in hot water to be produced, regardless of their current temperature.

ahh I just figured it out!

There are swings dotted around that frame (just in case it wasnt dangerous enough!)
The levitating witch/girl on the left is actually mid swing, same for the floating demon/boy in the middle

Reminds me of this
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077147/quotes

In 1966 the Rutles faced the biggest threat to their careers. Nasty in a widely quoted interview had apparently claimed that the Rutles were bigger than God, and was reported to have gone on to say that God had never had a hit record. The story spread like wildfire in America. Many fans burnt their albums, many more burnt their fingers attempting to burn their albums. Album sales skyrocketed, People were buying them just to burn them.

Great news, everyone! It turns out the problem we spent our careers working on can't be solved!

it turns out... if a mathematical theorem can't be proved, that means it can't be disproved either, which means that there is no counter example to disprove the theorem, which means the theorem must be true, only it can't be proved to be true, even though we just proved it was true by showing there was no proof....

the first few paragraphs from the article to go with that:

The Man Who Will Be King
Prince Charles is a most uncommon bloke

Monday, May 15, 1978

If Charles Philip Arthur George Mount-batten-Windsor did not exist, who could invent him? Consider. He can pilot a jet fighter and knows enough about helicopters to help repair them. He has skippered a Royal Navy minesweeper through North Atlantic gales with the skill of a yachtsman handling a racing sloop. He plays an aggressive, three-plus-handicap game of polo and is a qualified paratrooper. He is a gifted amateur cellist who can be moved to tears while listening to the music of Berlioz. He has scuba-dived in the Caribbean, schussed down Alps, sambaed into the night with Brazilian beauties. A keen student of history, he can discourse persuasively on the neglected virtues of his ancestor King George III, and is host and interviewer on a TV series on anthropology.

Conservatively estimated, his income is about $420,000 a year. He is master of a stately home on 3,000 acres in Kent, which he calls "the most desirable bachelor pad in Europe." He has a mischievous, urbane wit, an infectious smile.

(See Kate Middleton's Fashion Evolution.)

At 29, he is trim (5 ft. 11 in., 154 Ibs.) and — yes — unmarried. As if this were not enough to thrill every mother (and every mother's daughter) in the entire United Kingdom, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, Duke of Cornwall and Rothesay, Earl of Chester and Carrick, Baron of Renfrew, Lord of the Isles and Great Steward of Scotland, is also heir to the classiest preserve of royal pomp and privilege left on earth: the British throne.

Given the robust good health of his mother Queen Elizabeth, chances are that it will be some years before Bonnie Prince Charlie becomes King. But as he approaches his 30th birthday (Nov. 14), this scion of the House of Windsor has clearly come into his own, not so much a monarch in waiting as a mature royal Prince who is a man of his times despite those anachronistic titles.

Don't often post on the discussion thread but as one of the few threads I actively followed on boards in all its iterations, I'm unsubbing from the YLYL threads.
The constant harping on by both Vegan and Omnivore is becoming more irritating than tiresome at this stage.
2 posters on ignore, 1 of whom in most other of their posts I find to be an articulate and well reasoned poster and still I find myself looking at psuedo-vegan ****e on a near daily basis.
Thanks to the regular posters who raised a laugh over the years and peace out!

Depending on your humour you might find these offensive, personally I'd recommend not having coffee when your are going through them or else you'll end up spraying your screen.
