I get that. I've just not yet figured out what criteria needs to be met to make "RIP PJ" funny.
The insinuation was "Nobody cares enough to leak it."
You may have insinuated that in your mind but I wasn't suggesting that. I was just stating it's rare for an album to have not leaked by now. You can't read between the lines when there's only of them. ;)
I didn't say you were suggesting anything. I made a joke out of what you'd said.

It's a slogan for people who are pretty much completely disillusioned with everything about Pearl Jam, yet still post incessantly on Pearl Jam message boards.
See I get that. Except I'm not disillusioned with anything, far from it. I'm excited that my favourite band are about release their first album in over 4 years and I'm pretty fucking impatient.

I was just saying it's rare for an album to not be public by now, nothing "RIP PJ" about that.

Amen.

I think I just don't know how to post on the internet anymore. It's like I'm suddenly speaking another language.

Time to start using that second account you've been hinting at.

The mods should probably sticky a definition of irony or sarcasm on the top of the board. People seem to be in short supply sometimes.

I apologise, harmless. I do appreciate irony and sarcasm. I just didn't really see the relevance in this instance.

I'm not that attracted to you if that's what you mean.

No I mean when women answer everything with "OK" and similar one word answers, and say everything is "FINE!" when in reality they're enraged inside. :evil:

I know what you meant. That was another joke.

My wife doesn't do that. I wonder what you're doing wrong.
