Against: 2
  1. Against. It's alright, but didn't make me laugh. --Mr. Monkey Sockmonkey.gif Pant-hoot here. 21:47, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
  2. The humor didn't deliver when it should have, and the running joke of not being able to count got tiresome for me. --S0.S0S.0S.0S0 13:50, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
Comments:
  • SoSo: Though your reasons for voting against were more informative than Mr.Monkey's, I do not understand 'the humor didn't deliver when it should have' - This is a confusing remark --Knucmo2 19:52, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, that is kind of confusing. I guess what I meant to say is that some of the protagonist's stupidities ("sock"rates, removing a bad heart, etc) came off a bit stale. Also, in general, sarcastic servant/witless master repartee is nothing new, so I was hoping for some of the humor to surprise me in some way to be feature-worthy. --S0.S0S.0S.0S0 04:26, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Well, I thought the Socrates one was a good build up for a decent punchline (Kant). I take the point about the Jeeves/Woosteresque exchange, but that is precisely why I decided to write scene three with two extra characters to create a different situation, with the first two scenes being a parody of said repartee, and a decent one at that. The explanation was appreciated, nonetheless. --Knucmo2 10:01, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Abstain. It wasn't bad at all, but it seemed to be lacking that special moment that makes me inclined to vote for. A lot of the best humor (both highbrow and lowbrow) is something that catches you off-guard and surprises you, and I really can't say I ever felt that here.
