• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Questions i always wanted to ask.

Housebrick = house brick= a brick used in building houses. Housebricks, by their very nature, are not known for their sense of humour. Depressed housebricks even more so.

Having 'the sense of humour of a depressed housebrick' is a humorously metaphorical way of suggesting RTS's sense of humour often appears to go missing.

OB
Okay. Got it. Makes sense.

And my apologies to you if RTS unleashes her wrath upon you because of me. :)

I didn't get it shut down, you asked for it to be shut down. And it was @MehGuy who started changing it to jokes. Blame Mehguy, not me!

What jokes did I make? I was making serious posts about elder abuse, lol.

I'm pretty much an investigative journalist at this point.

That's a disturbing thought. I know some young people are into elderly folks specifically.. I'm sure some of those types prey on such people.
Lol, you're funny meh,lol

My question is why I have been on the verge of tears all day…what causes that?
Maybe you've been reading this thread. I'm no longer on the verge I'm full blown.

Frequently a moderate to severe deficiency (or just imbalance) in nutrients,
or
something 'invisible', but important.
Could be. I hate that feeling though.

It may be good - like when the oil light or engine light goes on on the dash of the car - lets the driver know something is needing attention.
Yeah it could be.

You can stop now you're getting abusive.

One day, when you have lots of time to spare, I will explain some of the significant differences between American and Australian use of humour.

You will find out, for instance, that trading friendly insults is an everyday occurrence among Australians. In fact, being insulted is actually a sign of acceptance. If nobody takes the mickey, you can probably bet you're on the fringe.

I have to disagree with the other poster. This is one of the least funny jokes I ever heard.

You don't know? You can't pinpoint it down? If I were on the verge of tears all day, well first of all, I'd never admit it because I'm a dude, but If I were, I'm sure I'd know why. You really don't know why?
