This is the time when I would normally close a thread. The reasons we close a thread are varied but primarily when one has either run its course or it has gotten so far off course that it's no longer remotely connected to the OP's first post of the thread.
This thread started as a thread about laughter. About finding humor in our often unpleasant living arrangements.
Is suicide funny? Of course not
Is any kind of abuse funny? Of course not.
Here's what I will STRONGLY recommend:
(1) If you are triggered, if you can't find the humor right now? Walk away. There are a few thousand other threads here on a variety of forums that you can read or post on.
(2) Express your opinion and then be done.
#2 is where I struggle, because I've already expressed my opinion - as a Moderator - about this thread, yet the snipes and "he said she said how dare you say" continue.
Please feel free to PM me if you have a desire to chat more about this. I'll be around all day.
