Will this site ever understand my humour?

Am I doomed to forever wander this site as a forgotten, lonely reject of the system?

Take the deletion of my magnet video for instance. I was just doing a funny take on the "Chess Magnet School" thread. I was saying what a silly name, look at these magnets.

Enjoy.

Gallagher meets Mr. Science?

People for the Ethical Treatment of Organic Matter will have a field day because you can't prove no living organisms were harmed during the filming.  Millions starving would anything for one cherry tomato but the filmmakers are wasting fruits for a stupid video. Well fruits have rights.

I'm wrong? A tomato is a vegetable?  Baloney!  You'll use plastic cherry tomatoes? I hope you're using biodegradable plastic!

And the magnets whose useful lives you recklessly squander, gradually depleting their magnetic force?  Magnets that could be used for higher purposes: deflecting electron beams, generating electricity, or turning motors....  Precious energy wasted magnetizing them.  Some people can't even afford to pay their electric bill and you are wasting magnets.

So, no I don't understand your sense of humor and I never will.

Whoa there! I have the utmost respect for all magnets. I am a staunch defender of magnet rights. Magnets are happy to contribute to the growth of science. Together we will trek across the galaxy with warp magnet power:

Oh, I get it. You want to denigrate dilithium crystals by reducing them to common magnets, failing to honor the true sacrifice and backbreaking labor of the minors at the penal colony outposts who harvest the dilithium, just so we can travel at warp speed. Their lives, though misaligned with their demographic, are nevertheless worth something!  

Dammit Jim! Those are people down there!   I know, Bones....  Every life is worth something

I did it again. I responded to the Sicllian dragon thread by responding to "why has the dragon made a comeback" by posting a video:

My sense of relevance and humour can only be understood by alien beings from another planet. I should travel to their planet and do stand up comedy; I would become the alien equivalent of Jerry Seinfeld.

Puff the Magic Drag ...

Yes. I think that it is safe to say that this song joined many 1960's songs that promoted illicit drug use in code.

In the early 1980's Puff the Magic Dragon was done in Melbourne as a pontomine. I remember seeing it.
