As proven by /v/ and SW:TOR (TORtanic), "fun" is a buzzword.

Fun is used as a last resort to justify something when you can't think of any actual reasons as to why you do/play/spend time on it over something else.

As per this new law, every thread and post must have a justifiable reason for existing. Entertainment is a selfish endeavor which causes one person or minority to jam their beliefs into the faces of everyone else in a community.

You can still be sarcastic by using proper English.

"As per this new law, every thread and post must have a justifiable reason for existing."
This new law applies to posts too? If so, where do I state what is the purpose of this post?

"Fun is used as a last resort to justify something when you can't think of any actual reasons as to why you do/play/spend time on it over something else."

This should be quoted into the new rules.

Time to say something intelligently stupid - Otherwise known as babble.

By method of induction, it is therefore inferred that all living species both organic or non-inorganic having exposed their presence within the boundaries of anything pertaining to the forum present on this site, has ceased to exist in a state of 'living' for the following reason(s). Fun, as stated by Johan Huizinga, a Dutch historian and one of the founders of modern cultural history, is 'an absolutely primary category of life, familiar to everybody at a glance right down to the animal level.' As this forum denies access to anything vaguely reminiscent of 'fun', it can hence be stated that all beings present here lacks a 'primary category of life' as so stated above. Additionally, as of now, a method for the reanimation of a corpse to a living state has not been established in reality, as a result, the above thesis can be further simplified into a statement which suggests that any residents obeying the rules of this forum are in a permanent state of 'non-living'

End of non-serious babble...

Yes, but have you not ruled out the possibility that we are not having fun as we post? Although as humans having fun may be an "absolutely primary category of life", it doesn't necessarily state that one must engage in the enjoyment of pleasure at all times. If, for example, a loved one passes away in an accident, would you say that receiving the news that the aforementioned loved one has died would be a "fun" experience? If not, does that not mean, by your logic, that during the time of receiving the news one has collapsed into a state of "non-living"? I do not think so. Furthermore, the fundamental guideline of this establishment states that '"fun" is now summarily expelled and hereby banned from acquiring presence within this forum'. It does not state that "fun" is not allowed outside the off-topic forum, therefore making it completely possible to be a living human while not engaging in "fun" specifically when inside this forum, but potentially experiencing pleasure from other aspects of daily life.

Eh, that wasn't meant to be taken seriously, but upon reading what you just wrote, I'm really impressed by that rebuttal. You basically pinpointed it with your second point, likewise, another example can be that all living species must reproduce or have the potential to do so from birth, correct? That does not mean that they have to constantly reproduce to be considered 'living'. As for having fun while we post, I'm not too sure about that, since posting something that is not fun is incongruous with having fun in the process of doing so. But the perception of fun is subjective so I'm not sure. Maybe you meant it being that you have fun typing letters which otherwise conveys something 'not-fun'. But you're right, I was basically nit-picking at the small stuff. Although something to note is that enjoyment is different from fun although they are not mutually exclusive.

Oh damn. I think we broke the rules in this sub-forum...

well then

I think if we remove a bit of the first page, the 2nd and 3rd pages entirely as well as some of the last page and lock it, then this would be a good thread.
