Where's your credit to Ogre? He's the one that pointed out it's no joke, as in going to the other side is no laughing matter.
I didn't consider that potential in Ogre's response before now, but I'm pretty sure we all got your "other side" double-entendre before you explained it. I guess I'm still not clear why you responded to him the way you did.
I failed to see any joke in his response.
