"Why Is This Funny?"

New Feature!

We here at Consider Our Ass Kissed! don't hold with the age-old truism, "If it ain't funny, don't explain it." No, we recognize that sometimes, nothing can be funnier than some dude going on at length as to why he thought something was going to be funny!

And so we inaugurate a New Feature! "Why Is This Funny?" Here's how it works:

Those of you who have been clicking asterisks all along know of our underutilized sister blog (URL LOCATION: http://consideryourasskicked.blogspot.com :END URL LOCATION), which has been used to house the footnotes that go with said asterisks, and pertain to the posts so-annotated. Well now, you are not obliged to wait upon my whim for a footnote! No longer will you be forced to peruse additional that-specific-post-related content only where I deem an asterisk necessary. No! By making use of this New "Why Is This Funny?" Feature, you may submit a request for a footnote that explains why a particular post is funny!

Here's how it works:

1. Submit a comment post containing ONLY THE TEXT: "Why Is This Funny?"*


2. Wait.


3. It will be a good idea for you to have clicked the check-box thingy that makes it so you are alerted to followup comments, that way you will know when 4 happens.

4. I review the comments and for any that contain ONLY the text, "Why Is This Funny?", I will slate that post for a footnote explaining why!

5. Finished explanatory footnotes will be placed in the ol' heretofore underutilized sister blog for that purpose.

6. I will post a comment linking to the footnote, to let you know "Why Is This Funny?"

7. Hm. I guess I should probably find some hidden signal to embed right there in the post to tip those-in-the-know off that there is indeed an explanation, as to why that post is so funny.

I admit, it's going to be hard to explain exactly how and why some of these posts are so damn funny, but I will do my level best to articulate it into words, for the ones requested. I can't promise an immediate response, but it'll be slated into the schedule!

Even for the ones that aren't funny, and aren't supposed to be funny, at least I can probably trump something up.

So anyway - New Feature! "Why Is This So Funny?"

Here's how it works!
