    excon, in English the term Parody, what the Poster represents, is an amusing imitation, not to be confused with ugliness.

    Hello again, DC:

    Merriam Webster defines parody as composition that imitates humorously or satirically. Satire is biting wit or sarcasm used to expose vice or folly.

    Your poster is neither humorous or witty. The only vice you point out is his smoking. Other than that, it's meant to defame and is mean spirited. It doesn't surprise me that you can't tell the difference.

    Like I said, you should stick with beachcombing, cause a philosopher, you ain't.

    Perhaps, excon, the different way we see things in general has something to do with how we view this…I see it as parody and you see it as satire.

    Hello again, DC:

    Satire?? Dude, you missed it again. It's meanness - pure and simple. There's nothing cute, or fun or witty about it at all. Again, I'm not surprised that you think it is.
