424. Scorched Mirth
A welcome and unexpected post in the middle of a very contentious thread which suddenly provides comic relief and brings smiles to people’s faces.

Since every thread is more enjoyable with 'Collectorisms,' I will shamelessly (Herpolshamelessly??) ride my pun horse out of the barn and quickly (way too quickly...definitely shoulda spent some more time on inventing this garbage) try a little 'Scorched Mirth' in this one (obviously not taking sides in the matter, just reporting what I see)...
