Phage is still an extremely funny guy, I think the school kids were starting to wear on his nerves just like everyone else's. They were certainly getting on mine at times. Hurray for back to school time!
There are a lot of times a post or a thread header catches my eye and a hilarious (to me) one-liner comeback pops into my head. Sometimes it's even a misreading of the title that triggers a jocular reposte. I know one-liners are frowned upon and I understand why, but sometimes it is so tempting to just throw it out there. Let me present an example. I just saw a thread titled Whats Your Favorite Martial Art and Why. My immediate instinct was to create a thread titled What's your Favorite Marital Aid and Why (get it?). Discretion took over and I was able to resist. This example is obviously too racy and I really never seriously considered actually creating the thread.
I know the average ATS member is above average intelligence. One of the strongest markers of intelligence is a strong sense of humor but I see a lot of posts that I consider funny that no one else seems to. Is it just me?
Undoubtedly this medium makes it very easy for intent to be misunderstood and in such a place as this tempers can run high. Humor may be misinterpreted, not appreciated, or taken as an insult. Is there any room for humor in ATS? I'm a newcomer and I'm just beginning to get the hang of this place but I'm already having a good time. Is my sense of humor out of line? Help me control myself or give me an outlet!

Somebody post something real embarrassing.
If you do I'll tell you a "true story", of one of my Navy, "nights on the town",
This Group is for fellow Squadron Shipmates who served with VA-215 Barnowls. Please share your stories and pictures of your experience with this Squadron. Please feel free to invite fellow Squadron Shipmates!
Young and dumb and full of.....spunk.

400, "Double Nuts" on the Rosie 76-77. George Kyzer's plane.
Lots of guys tolerate my presence, but as the only Aussie carrier vet on the various USN pages I belong to I get away with it on most occasions. This is me as a 17 year old aircraft handler, don't let the red gear fool you, our handlers wore red, green, blue and obviously yellow.
Steve Smith and I in PI. Look at those baby faces!
Another picture I found. This is me prior to the Oriskany cruise at Lemoore. Wished I could be a kid again!
ASM3 Mike Bennett getting an award from CDR. Shultz onboard USS Franklin D. Roosevelt. I have no idea how I got this picture, just found it looking for something else!
Lt. King took my camera up for me. I believe this is over Sicily.

Somewhere alone this timeline,someone posted the phases of being on ATS.
I forgot what they were. All I remember was excitement and discovery,let down and anger,boredom. then rediscovery.

I check every so often.
While I look at my previous posts and threads,
I'm in awe.
Do I have a split personality?
Me looking back on my old posts confirms I'm a hypocrite.
Maybe i'm exaggerating.
The more I know, the less I know.
