      Fine, fine. As you well know, or you wouldn't have asked, there are extensive tutorials on English grammar on my own site, here[^]. Go on, then. What's the next stage in your highly skilled troll attack?

            Stop joking. Definitely.

            Yes. Why joke when you can seriously insult people?

            The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
            This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.
            "I don't know, extraterrestrial?" "You mean like from space?" "No, from Canada." If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

                I doubt I'm the man you want to ask about better technique.

                  [Bearing in mind that free advice is usually worth every penny you paid for it :)] The only advice I could give is: 1. Follow the rules (if any) of the venue (for example, The Lounge should be kid-sister safe) 2. Know your audience Having said that, in a group as large as Code Project you will always find someone who is offended by a joke, no matter how innocuous. If you wish to make jokes in such a forum, you also have to develop a thick(er) skin.

                  If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

                                  Understand that jokes are difficult to translate without losing something. Maybe, just maybe, that's why they fall flat.

                                    The most important thing is not to simply repeat/repost the jokes of others. Only post jokes/humor that you yourself devised.
