Up until recent comments, my emotions were mild irritation leavened with my own brand of slightly caustic humour. That clearly hasn’t worked out, and so I am reverting to a more neutral tone. No more jokes, just information.

My view on the matter has purely been a matter of taste, and different people have been trying to make it a matter of ableism. Other people have different preferences and tastes. I like jokes to be funny, and explaining them makes them suck in my opinion. I think that’s pretty self-explanatory, and I’ve done my best to be clear on this point.

You’ve been ascribing various untrue feelings, attitudes, and conditions to me in search of a way to litigate your own preferences. That is an unpleasant way to be treated. I’ve tried my best to be funny, and then civil, and my warning now is that we’re nearing the end of civility.
