<p>Yikes, that’s the last time I’ll crack a joke on this forum (today). I would have thought that coming out and saying that I made it up twice would be enough.</p>
<p>Jokes and sarcasm rarely come through in the written word.</p>
<p>I get that; I guess I just got confused when I said that I was kidding twice and people apparently didn’t notice. Is that common practice?</p>
<p>Harvard posters, even those whom have posted a zillion times, sometimes slip up on reading comprehension here. </p>
<p>Humor and Hahvahd? Like oil and watah.</p>
<p>^I found the comment from the first page of a different recently-posted thread humorous simply because the OP declared that he was not the most adept speller which received a reply poking fun at the locals’ phonetic pronunciation of the school’s name.</p>
<p>^^??? ^^ Your response is incomprehensible, and the sentence is a run-on. </p>
<p>Jokes, humor and sarcasm are the essence of online wit, particularly here at the Harvard site. A careful reader can glean much wisdom, or entertainment from these pages.</p>
<p>^As I said, your allusion to the phonetic pronunciation of Harvard by easterners received banter in another thread. Perhaps you did not read it.</p>
<p>The #24 comment was directed at Jahaba, who, if you read carefully, was inquiring why the Harvard posters did not pick up on her humor, which she revealed twice.</p>
<p>Yes, I understood his or her point.</p>
<p>Hahaha…I love your joke Northstarmom. Sorry…I couldn’t catch up with the convo…I had stuff and volunterring to do.</p>
