this is a serious notice

Does the inclusion of the line 'THIS IS A SERIOUS NOTICE' make a notice more or less serious?

  2. I'd say it was pretty serious, those fuckers will eat anything!

    Btw, you don't look serious, you just looked incredibly pissed off.

  3. Kirsty, it's as maybe that goats will eat anything, but on the assumption they don't use their big horns as a form of cutlery it's not being eaten that's their weapon.

    And surely pissed of is a subsection of serious - one could hardly be incredibly pissed off in a jovial way.

  4. Evelyn Waugh used to write, “This is quite true,” at the end of his anecdotes, when it was something particularly stupid.
