Sorry, that means nothing to me.

One might say it's... pointless.
Be that as it may, but certainly you still making grumpy remarks about a humorous remark I made about Japan SIX years ago surely, in terms of pointlessness, takes the biscuit.


A pointless thing I have heard numerous times before a final game:

"Both teams have come a long way and want to win this."

Question: How high is the probability that anybody gains a new infromation or a new insight from that?

No, I said any MORE pointless things, not the same old, same old pointless thing. Old dogs CAN learn new tricks, you just refuse to.

You getting all het up about humorous remarks that went whoosh over your head ~ or because your own sense of humour has been incapacitated by your perma-scorn ~ is about as pointless a kind of posting as there is.

Sports commentary includes a lot of these pointless remarks. Perhaps the purpose is simply the avoidance of dead air.

Agreed.
If the commentator had said 'neither side wants to win this' that's worth saying.
But all we get is platitudes.

Asking whether popes poo in the woods is OK.

But then asking whether bears are Catholics AS WELL is pointless.

Is it ok to ask if a rocking horse has a wooden pecker?

But a rocking horse might have a wooden bonus hole rather than a pecker. Stop repressing female rocking horses with your presumptuous microaggressions.

Dang, I need to be re-trained.
At work some people were put on a course to stop them using sexual innuendos.
