Humor is allowed, but low effort memes and cultural references tend to crowd out interesting substantive discussion and are so predictable as to not add much value. Look at popular Reddit threads, you can often guess the top voted comment.
- Frenchgeek 9y agoOn the other hand, this IS the Internet: expecting an original and intelligent joke here isn't exactly realistic. ( Beside I did check if buying a hose was simpler. Some are surprisingly expensive... )
- mustacheemperor 9y agoThis community is not meant to reflect an average of the Internet, it's specifically intended to be a place to expect original and intelligent discussion - including the humor.
- Frenchgeek 9y agoOr lack of one apparently... ( Two hours and I'm somehow still submitting too fast. ) If I am not allowed to fail, how can I learn what is considered "intelligent" humor here? I guess that's why I don't remember having seen a joke here beyond my few attempts... edit:( anyways as unoriginal and stupid my joke may be, it can also be seen as a comment on the subject of overchoice of the submission by a reference to its opposite too )
