You've been here since 2010.

Maybe you'd get it if you had joined a year earlier.

all humor is acquired.

What I meant was that the humor of these comics did not appeal to me, but maybe that could change if I read more of it.

I don't know how long you've been in the industry but for me it's bittersweet and all too recognizable, so definitely funny but funny with an asterisk or quotes around it. Ed is passing on a ton of embedded wisdom here in the same way that a gifted comedian (say, George Carlin or Bill Hicks) would. You laugh, but it also hurts.

Thanks again, jacquesm for the kind words.

If you inspired others as well as you insprire me, you would change the world.

Oh wait. You already are. And you already are.

I am in the industry for a very very long time. Maybe that is the reason, as I have heard (or made) similar jokes made several times in meeting rooms, on coffe breaks etc. Maybe I got too numb in general.

I appreciate his comics, some are definitely alright.

You're at stage '3' ;)

Thanks mda, for the great feedback. (The greatness of feedback is not correlated with its positivity or negativity.)

I sort of anticipated this. I wrote the comic below just for times like this. Please stay in touch and let me know if any of this grows on you. I sure hope it does. That's what helped me get through it all.
