I've read them. OK I'll try this one last time and then quit. sigh...

When Larry The Cable Guy says something he thinks is pretty funny he says,

If you don't think that's funny ("get out of here"|"go to hell"|"then I don't know"|etc.)
This phrase is a sign that the poster CIDKauf found your post funny. It was a harmless complement. This is an understood thing among anyone that watches the redneck comedy series with Jeff Foxworthy, Larry, and Tatersalad. Pretty much everyone here understands that but you. So let's analyze it post by post:
[paulat] Bruce Vilanch had a hilarious t-shirt on once that said, "YOUR PROCTOLOGIST CALLED. HE FOUND YOUR HEAD."
at this point CIDKauf probably found your post, thought it was funny and decided to post a "Larry The Cable Guy" complement
[CIDKauf] If you don't think that's funny....get the h*** out of here!
that was when you responded with
[paulat] What on earth are you talking about???!!!
- and then -
[paulat] I BELIEVE YOU OWE ME AN APOLOGY
it was at this point that CIDKauf probably realized that you weren't familiar with the "If you don't find ..." shtick so he added
[CIDKauf]about your proctologist....GIT R DONE
Almost everyone has heard Larry's "GIT R DONE" bit and CIDKauf probably thought that would help you realize it was just part of the comedy routine and he didn't mean any harm. (obviously to no avail)

So in summary. CIDKauf, in each of his two posts to you, was just doing part of a fairly well known comedy routine, and then gave up when it was obvious you didn't get it. I'm just asking you to step back for a moment and see this as it was, a silly misunderstanding, and try to relax.

Good night.

You are gracious and very nice person. Thank you for explaining.

I don't have cable and hardly ever watch TV. I think my t-shirt comment came from 5 years ago.

You were very nice to make me understand.

It upset me for someone to tell me to "get the hell out of here."

I wish the poster had your class.
