HN gets offended by people who joke.
- oldmanjay 11y agoBoring, obvious jokes aren't really contributing much, are they?
- bargl 11y agoI find this idea interesting! Look at what John Oliver, John Stewart, Jay Lenno, etc. have done with jokes as a method to make a point have more bite. They entertain and also report information. So jokes' by themselves are not bad. The thing that detracts from conversation are jokes without content which only server to annoy and clutter. Much like comments that do the same.
