Do you find this picture funny?

As a joke between two people maybe worth a laugh as a photo on the net looking for further gratification, not funny.

Damn it.
Over the past few months, I have written some really good stories, all for them to be rejected and yet this... this...?

No, I didn't even smile.

Nope. I just feel a little sad for Chris, who doesn't get to do the scratching. I love those tickets just because I like scratching them off. I've never bought one myself, but I've scratched other people's for them. If they had something like that with no potential for prizes, especially if it was reusable, I'd buy the shit out of it.

Mods not doing their job.

I've had shits more funny than this.

I thought it was funny cause I know a guy named Chris dating a girl named Nicole. And it's totally something they would do to eachother.

Looking at this dispassionately, it's actually a really interesting question. I've often wondered what the prevailing sense of humour is here as when I attempt it, at least half the people don't realise I'm joking. At one point, I even used a symbol for when I was joking or not, which defeats the purpose somewhat. You've made me want to post things about whether stuff is funny or not.

As for your question, I suppose it's mildly amusing. I do get the joke and it does work structurally as a joke (although what I found odd is that some people took it literally and seemed to get angry at the fictional Nicole).

However, using anonymity to level what seemed to be an insult to an IIN user based on nothing more than your own personal anthropomorphisation of fruit was deeply unfunny and really kind of ugly.

I didn't think it was funny either. Everyone has their own taste.

I laughed at the fact that 92 people thought it was funny. I mean it seems pretty messed up getting $25 dollars worth of lottery tickets and then only get $2 from them. If you know the prize was worth less than the ticket, why would you buy it? The thought of that makes me laugh, ahah.. I mean like around 100 people giggling at such a joke makes me smile :)

LOOL Being part Irish, I love sarcasm :')
This seems like a really sarcastic joke to me.

Why didn't he just give her the 25$, not the stupid 2$

I thought to myself deeply "Why couldn't Nicole just have given Chris the $25 worth of lottery tickets? Why Nicole, why?", then realized again that its probably just a joke.

Some people are clearly easily amused....because this really isn't 'funny'

not really funny at all. if you are going to get lotto tickets, half the fun is scratching them off in anticipation, and the excitement when you see that you won. this is fake, gay, and a complete fail at being funny.

I smiled. Didn't laugh though.

Meh.

I tend to laugh at the most unusual things. For some reason I didn't laugh or even smile for that matter. Sorry, lol.

No, not even slightly. Didn't even make me smile. I don't see what's so funny about it. No offence, just not my cup of tea, I guess.

Ermm....

I had that "i should post this on facebook" grin...

I think it's more cute than funny.

Hah gayyy
