Wow, even more baseless speculation on intentions and a posters
inner world. Is this a contest to see how baseless you can get?

Of course, the laughees may be quietly laughing at
the laughers all along, without feeling the need
to make their laughter public.

That's it, exactly.

But they keep trying, don't they. Sometimes reading
the machinations of those on this forum who are 
desperately trying to cling to self is like watching
the greased-pig contest at a county fair. Part of 
you wonders why anyone would ever *do* that sorta
thing, but at the same time another part cannot help
but find it hilarious and laugh at it. And then the
laughing makes the contestants in the greased pig
contest feel even more...uh...oinxious and uptight and
threatened, and their uptightness over such a silly
thing that makes the whole greased pig contest even 
*more* hilarious, so you laugh at it even more. It's 
tough to break out of the cycle of laughter/uptight-
ness/laughter unless one or more of the laughees 
actually makes a breakthrough and starts to laugh 
along *with* the laughers...

The laughter is going to win.  The clinging 
to self is going to lose.  That's just the 
way the world works.

Of course and that is the real joke. No laughing at them, laughing at
the clinging to the idea that can not be upheld. Like trying to hang
on to a teflon coated pig. Ain't going to happen. Tom T
