And unlikely it was!
The February Humour Award's Gold medal goes to one Lucas Buck for,
"Then again, it IS the only industry in which you can bet ALL your
customers are ARMED."
Which was in response to David Cohen's "OTOH, I have found that the
firearms industry, as a whole, has the best customer service of all
the product types that I've bought over the years."
The FHA's Silver medal is awarded to Pete for his inspired remark,
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! " in
reply to David's "Yes, he certainly knows a shitload about this
subject."
(Hey, at least one person on the Humour Committee is obviously a
sucker for the Charlie Brown-inspired "AAAAUGH!"-type response. Yes.)
And the Bronze medal goes to Tom Anderson, who in reaction or response
to mention of
Paxil,
Wellbutrin,
Zoloft, SSRIs, MAOIs, Tricyclics,
etc., commented:
"I had a tricyclic when i was a kid. Certainly made me happy.
Well, i say tricyclic, it was a normal bicyclic with stabilisers. My
dad took them off once i could ride it properly."
February's Honorable Mention goes to Andrzej Rosa for "Murder, robbery
and obesity. I'm really surprised that you didn't decided to shoot
smokers. Yet."
The smokers on the Humour Committee laughed and laughed over that one.
Um, nervously.
And, adding to the collection of Humour Awards categories, Best
Repeated Use of a Jpeg goes to my bestestest pal, John M. Williams
for:

Okay, let's get funny, people! March is here. There's laughing to be
done!
The February Humour Awards was sponsored in part by PLACEBO® Brand
Supplements. That's right, PLACEBO® Brand, uUtilizing the ultimate in
Reverse Psychology Technology™. If you think it's not working then it
must REALLY be working! Embracing the philosophy that money wasted is
actually money well spent.
Please note:
Prozac® and Eli Lilly and Company are not associated with
the Humour Awards in any capacity.
In the complex world of depression, look to Lilly for answers that
matter. But don't expect any laughs. OKAY?
