I'm still trying to figure out what you said. I understand "Animal House" very well,
You know I was talking about a line from John Belushi in the comedy film "Animal House" right? Not Orwell's "Animal Farm"? There's not much to understand in that film other than enjoying the parody and absurdity. Animal Farm is a different critter entirely.
Belushi line was followed by "Germany?", "Forget it, he's on a roll" by characters listening - in other words, the substance, or accuracy of the statement should be ignored, as long as it initiates action or reaction.
Perhaps I was too subtle (for non-Animal House fans), but what I meant was that posting of inanity after inanity with typical knee jerk responses in between, as fast a people could google a response, quickly devolved into nothing but blind competition and then bickering about incivility while being as uncivil as possible. So the question "Uhmm...did the Russians, like, bomb Pearl Harbor a second time, or what?" was analogous to "Did something even more absurd and ridiculous happen than I've seen posted here, in the pages I skimmed through, to prompt this level of vitriol and one upmanship?"
I had thought that "Sheesh, 11 pages (so far) of people **screaming** about incivility?" made that clear, and provided the necessary context.
And while your rectum may indeed be humorous, I don't feel qualified to comment either way 😏
