Humour

The Dehumourification Plan

The Counter-Fun Unit doing its job (by Rhombuth)

We here at the Counter-Fun Unit would like to congratulate the Wikipedia community for choosing the correct option in the Barbenheimer caption discussion. While we dispute our characterization as the "fun police" — we're more of a paramilitary group — the outcome is a wonderful step towards our end goal: removing anything on Wikipedia that could be construed as funny, by anyone, ever.

This incredible progress is why we've decided to finally release our Dehumourification Plan. This 4442-page document outlines our vision for a Wikipedia devoid of all things comical. Some of our proposed solutions include:

Deletion of pages like Wikipedia:Unusual articles, Wikipedia:Lamest edit wars, Wikipedia:Don't stuff beans up your nose – really, anything with a humor template at the start of it.
Deletion of pages listed on Wikipedia:Unusual articles.
Deletion of pages on comedies.
Deletion of pages on monotremes. I mean, seriously? Mammals that lay eggs? Absurd.
Releasing an editor update to disallow edits that add or remove a funny number of characters, like 69, 420, 1,337, 1,984, 2,763, 24,601, and 58,008.
Filling Wikipedia:In the news with an huge amount of tragedy – wait, they already do that?
The lipogrammish removal of voiceless velar plosives for want of their use in inherently funny words.
The deletion of the biggest circus on Wikipedia.

We sadly cannot reveal this document to all of you, since its sheer beauty would be too much for you to handle. However, we have sent it to the Foundation — I mean, the Foundation, and they have shown great interest in it. We expect the process will be completed by at most the year 281,474,976,712,644 AD.

So, is OK? I don't want to get in trouble or anything. ☆ Bri (talk) 00:47, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We need to unite against this anti-fun paramilitary. They are a threat to Wikipedia peace and security. Although, we should work together to destroy the biggest circus in the world. Like the US and USSR in WW2. CLYDE ^{TALK TO ME}/_{STUFF DONE} 00:50, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, but what if someone finds it fun to take away others' fun? :/ ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 00:59, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Humour is shocking. How do we convey that in the lip-readers version? The Banner talk 10:47, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The most important thing is that we Wiki-users do not get Scared! ---Zemant (talk) 14:52, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
So I should skip the laugh track when I record the London Necropolis Railway audio file? -- Verbarson ^talk_edits 21:29, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
So, the process will be completed by the "Degenerate Era" of the universe (which is expected to begin in 10¹⁴ years)? That's insane! GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 17:25, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I recommend indefinite blocks of any editor who goofs off on April Fools Day. Cullen328 (talk) 21:28, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
