You presume a lot, Mr. Feesh. Most of it incorrect.

But since we're on the subject of humor, I thought you might enjoy

Top ten reasons to be a statistician

5 If I flunk out I can always transfer to Engineering.

7 You never have to be right - only close.
8 We're normal and everyone else is skewed.
9 The regression line looks better than the unemployment line.
10 No one knows what we do so we are always right.

And Alan thinks an obvious act of plagiarism on his part will remove
his ADS, Dysfunctional, and humor-impaired status.

Alan, you only ADDED a proof of your mindless plagiarism. Need I
explain what THAT means to you?

Nice cut-and-pasting job!

Alan, any IDIOT, even an ADS, Dysfunctional, and severely
humor-impaired one, can plagiarize VERBATIM, from the web link:

http://www.workjoke.com/projoke48.htm

BOTH of YOUR jokes were taken VERBATIM from the same web page.

but it's highly doubtful if you knew WHY some of the lines are
jokes, such as the 3rd line of the 6-line joke you stole!

Damn, he's much funnier than you Feesh, and has respect for those who
disagree with him, a virtue you appear to lack.

Welcome to my killfile, the first non-anonymous in my new folder, even

So, having been caught stealing from the statistical joke cookie jar,
with his willie caught in the chopping block, now Alan suddenly became
speechless and had to solicit some long-time weenie like Curtis to
babble the drivil below?

Curtis, the only thing worse than some ostrich resorting to a killfile
is for the blink ostrich to have to announce as if it were some kind
of accomlishment on his part -- you must have learned that from Lee
Bell!

I thought you and some other mindless mental midgets and idiots had
already put me on your killfiles. Watsa matter? It broke
periodically like Lee's, or you just couldn't standing missing all
the head-clubbing exhibitions begged by Dysfunctional jerks like
Alan?

Adios! Enjoy your residence in the hole where the sun don't shine.

Curtis only dives in holes. I don't think he lives in one. (Though I
suppose he would resemble Shrek a bit if only he were green)

Sun may shine on an average day, enough to get me median well done, if
I'm not too mean to the trolls.

Statistically speaking, I do live in one, since I refuse to die in one.

Then you should have learned Denis Healey's First Law of Holes:

1 - I didn't steal anything. I did a quick google search on math jokes,
and posted what I found (especially since some of them describe you
perfectly). I never claimed, inferred, insinuated, suggested, etc.,
that I made them up. You, as usual, jumped to a conclusion and started
typing before you engaged your brain

2 - I don't need to solicit anyone to help me make you look like a
fool. You do an amazingly good job all by yourself. It's just that some
others like to join in on the fun and slap you around a little bit.

3 - In a face-to-face meeting, I don't think you'd have the courage to
call Curtis a "long-time weenie."

I don't know about that last one. I mean there are a lot of things I
wouldn't have the courage to call Curtis face-to-face, but "long-time
weenie" is a such a lame insult that it would probably fail to offend even
the most mean, huge, and scary-looking.

That's called "playarism" -- the forst form of "stealing". In
academic circles, the perpetrator's career would be over and he
would have wished that his willie had been chopped off instead of
getting caught plagiarizing.

That only showed you completely lack of integrity. Do you think
a student taking someone else's work on a webpage and turned
that in as homework, not be punished for plagiarism had the
student "never claimed, inferred, insinuated, suggested" that
he made them up?

You're even more naive than I thought in your lack of ethical
values.

There aren't that many original jokes. I expected you to have
pulled a few from some joke files without acknowledging where
each of them come from, because some of the older jokes are not
even easily attributable.

But pulling TWO ENTIRE SETS (verbatim) from ONE source and not
acknowledge it?

You could have said, "these came from http://www. ..., but I
thought they applied to you perfectly" or something like that,
and it would have NOT been plagiarism, but proper attribution
of COPYRIGHTED source.

Just like the "birds of the same feather" attitude of the Dysfunctional
Gang, I am sure.

Speak for yourself, you ADS, Dysfunctional, humor-impaired, and
plagiarizing WEENIE!
