<Frowardd> LolCam: apparently "cynicism" and "irony" were the same thing, up until about fifty years ago
<LolCam> Frowardd: I thought cynicism traced its roots back to ancient Greece
<@snark> Frowardd, LolCam: cynicism and irony *both* trace their roots to ancient greek, and have quite different meanings originally
<@snark> cynicism from kunikos, or dog, after Diogenes the dog and his school of philosophy
<@snark> and irony from, iirc, eironia, which means ten thousand spoons
<@snark> the meaning has over time evolved to add that it only applies when all you need is a knife

* khmer sets mode: +mN
<@khmer> it's not censorship because it's technically possible to say something funny about anything
<@khmer> but the fact is none of you can do it
<@khmer> none of us can with any regularity
<@khmer> so no rape jokes
<@khmer> no, the joke you saw on another irc channel is not funny
<@khmer> no, the joke from a forum is not funny
<@khmer> no, making the bots rape is not funny
<@khmer> it's so hard to do and none of you/us are good at it
<@khmer> so the agreement is we stop
<@khmer> message concludes
<@khmer> thanks for brooking my honesty
* khmer sets mode: -mN
<Zi> khmer: Are rap jokes still alright, though? D:
* Zi was kicked by snark (rap is tragic and not funny)
<sheepbat> what about canola jokes?
* khmer sets mode: +v sheepbat
