The Onion is a parody site. It's not real.
I used to find The Onion funny, until they posted a story to make fun of people with breast cancer and how it hasn't been cured yet. That crossed the line in my book.
I don't think anything's so serious that it can't be laughed at. I still find
the Onion funny as hell. My favorite was the story about the hamster
being thrown from the remote control car.

HAHAHAHAHA- oh wait... it's not real? DAMNIT! So does that mean Rush Limbaush is STILL ALIVE!?
6000 Runners Fail to Discover Cure for Breast Cancer
Despite their diligent, dedicated running, the 6,000-plus participants in Sunday's 5K Race For The Cure did not find a cure for breast cancer. Hopes were high, given the excellent weather and record turnout for the 11th annual event, but no viable cure for the disease was discovered along the 3.1-mile course. "We were particularly hopeful of locating the cure somewhere around the two-and-a-half-mile mark," race organizer Jill Broadbent said. "At that point, the route goes right past Northside Hospital and within a block of several Emory University oncology facilities. That seemed the most promising place to perhaps spot a breast-cancer cure. Regrettably, the runners were unable to do more than momentarily glimpse in researchers' windows as they passed by.
Hah. I like the breast cancer one.
Haha, the breast cancer one is pretty funny. Is that the one that you didn't like, Unne? I'll bet my aunt would think it funny, and she's only been inremission for like a year.
That was an enjoyable five minutes.
Yes, I don't find cancer funny.
The essence of humour is laughing about the things you find hard to deal with - namely death and yourself. :)Quote:

I'll try to remember to laugh at my parents' funeral someday then.
That was amusing.
It would be admirable if you could tell an amusing little story and get a laugh.Quote:

I don't mean to express contempt - simply to treat things with humour. Great people can do it while it happens, and others have to wait a while. Either way - it's a wonderful defence mechanism, as long as you don't become cynical, blunt or dull.
Whether a person who can laugh at tragedy is "great" or not is a matter of opinion, and in my opinion it's not so. Someone who can laugh at anything at any time, including other people's misery, is at the least rather shallow and at the most rather heartless. There are times for laughter and there are times when laughter is inappropriate.
Agreed. But I was talking about humour, rather. Not being able to apply humour to events in your life means your life will be a whole lot harder, and more boring as well. I didn't mean you should laugh your arse off at your mother's wedding or something... it's not denying your sadness. It's not necessarilly about laughing about later, either. It's just... a light-hearted, humorous approach to things.Quote:
