The HUMOR
LIST was
originally created around April 1993, to provide an uncensored and diverse
source of humor for a seminar on the "Communication of Humor"
led by Bill Edwards of Columbus State University, Columbus,
Georgia.
The HUMOR
LIST currently
includes a
Facebook Page, with a daily post, celebrating a "holiday" theme
for the date. We also have a
Twitter account
you can follow!
The HUMOR
LIST
transitioned to a subscriber-supported group on August 1, 2017.
To increase security for our subscribers and limit spam, it was
necessary to contract email services through
SimpleLists. To
support continuing expenses, it was decided that a single fee of
$19.95 would insure the list continued.
The HUMOR
LIST encourages
a diversity from all cultures, offering a substantial
example of humor. As
with any humor, remember, it can take almost any form - jokes,
puns, riddles, satire, etc.
The HUMOR
LIST is
a rule-governed list. The contributions are not censored, but
those who post jokes are expected to obey those rules.
This is NOT a
list for the hyper-sensitive persons who may be easily offended.
Subject lines are used to tell our readers the subject and to
provide warnings when possibly offensive material is included
(<language>, <political>, <sexual>, <offensive to ___ >, etc.).
There is no accounting for a person's taste or "sense of humor." What one person finds uproariously funny, another may
find extremely offensive.
There is no personal chatter or discussion permitted within
humor posts; flames are prohibited, and there are no personal
advertisements allowed. Personal comments may be shared between
individuals in private emails, and complaints should always be
addressed to the administrators.
This site also contains the statistical Traffic Reports (monthly and
annual).
