Maybe we should have a dedicated humor forum. It would be a sort of safe space for people to be able to be funny without fearing sour grapes.

This is so sad. What happened to being able to have regular discussions without it needing a 'safe haven' or dedicated forums?

Now I'm curious. Who are you?

I shall forever remain a mystery to you Smile

Some whisper my name with respect,
Others sneer at it in distain.
When really all I tried to do
Was use humor to help me hide my pain.
An enigma I am,
It's impossible to figure me out
Some proudly thought they did
But my next post left them with doubt.....

Who am I?????

Why? Is it funny? Or is it an example of how it's dangerous to be funny?

I'm still laughing my way through life except when I trip on a stone and lose a tooth but I got myself unaddicted from imamother! I blocked loads of forums so the home page should be boring. I still check in but way less than before and that's a good thing!

In light of the matzav in Eretz Kodshenu, some of us are having a hard time being funny, because we're in pain, or sympathizing(empathizing? I never could keep those two straight) with those in more severe pain, or because we just don't feel it's appropriate at this time unless the humor is specifically designed to lift people's spirits and courage at this time.

I started that thread because of this question I thought maybe it could give some people a laugh.

I feel honored to have once been a part of the funny threads like the Niddah Poetry and Personalized relations Towels threads. There was no risk of snark with those. Literally every comment on those threads were pure gold.

As long as you're unaddicted.

I'm too tired to be funny. Maybe when I'll stop teething

The funniest thread I read on imamother was funny things a little kid said.

Also a thread about stuff you misunderstood as a little kid.

I started a spin-off on this cuz I would love such a thread Wink

You're teething? Poor thing! Tell your mommy to rub some alcohol on your gums. Orajel for infants helps too.

Not just through the generations but right here in my own life I’ve survived some pretty bad stuff with my dark humor. Let’s just say a lot of women here don’t get it. I stopped sharing.
