Actually, i first thought that Art may have been one of the 'brighter' statues seen in the background of the first picture he posted, but according to his reply, he is one of the 'less' bright statues in the foreground.

Except... most people have fairly large screens now. Mine, which is not all that large, shows me your joke post and the two below it without scrolling. So no anticipation for me, just setup and punchline, pretty much all at once.

I've got a two foot screen. One foot on either side. But It's also set at 150% magnification. So i did get a little anticipation while scrolling down.

Coincidentally, I was also trying to find examples of jokes written in Cuneiform the other night after a funny conversation I had with owlice. As it turns out, humor has always been dirty.

A man stopped me on the street the other day and asked for directions to the Deaf-Blind and Dumb convention. All i could do was shrugg my shoulders in a questioning way, because i hadn't heard about it, or seen any notices concerning it, so i couldn't say anything about where it was.
