Definitions by Solid Mantis

What you read on urban dictionary is not comedy. Comedy is intentional, when you go to a comedy show, you go to watch a guy tell jokes on purpose. Anybody not telling jokes on stage isn't meant to be taken as a comedian, even if you thought something they typed was funny, it doesn't make the person who typed it a comedian.
You can watch hbo, rent a movie, listen to a comedy album, read a comedy book, or go to a show for comedy. That's what the comedians make shows, books, and albums for, what they say is meant to be taken as a joke, since comedy is intentional. If its not intentional comedy, its most likely intended as something other than comedy.
Comedy by Solid Mantis June 20, 2018
Not comical.
The guy would make a joke every now and then, but was mostly serious by nature. He thought of comedy as something the less serious and more silly folks enjoyed a bit more.
Serious by Solid Mantis June 20, 2018
Something said or done that is intended to be taken as something other than comedy isn't meant to be taken as comedy.
Going to a comedy show is meant to be taken as comedy, when you go to a show you know why you're there, you go to a show intentionally to laugh at intentional jokes and humor. The show is meant to be taken as comedy. Outside of a show, not everything is meant to be taken as comedy, which is one reason people go to a show, to laugh at shit that wasn't funny that happened in their lives. Still, outside a comedy show everything isn't meant to be taken as comedy.
Comedy by Solid Mantis June 20, 2018
A guy who threatens to stab somebody with a fork should be leaving the person alone rather than making threats, even if he's not going to stab anybody. Especially if he hasn't proven to the guy he says it to that he's trustworthy.
Life is not Shutter Island, Shutter Island was a movie. The reality is all human beings are as violent as they come.
Violent by Solid Mantis June 20, 2018
Something you don't need to be going around threatening to stab somebody with. A fork is used for eating food, and a person should have no reason to think of a fork as anything more than an eating utensil.
The guy who uses a fork to eat and not to make threats is the guy who should be left alone. The guy who uses a fork as an example of something he might do is the guy who needs his fork taken from him until he knows how to use a goddamn fork, or when to joke and when not to.

Un-unique 

Exactly like someone, somewhere or something else.
His town was one of the few towns left that had nothing unique about it, and he didn't feel like his town needed anything to make it unique enough to be good enough for him. He liked where he lived and he could visit a unique city or an island some day if he decided to. Some called the place un-unique, but for him it was all he needed.
Un-unique by Solid Mantis June 19, 2018
Something you didn't know was there until its gone.
You started off with a lagoon, a sternwheeler, and even an island for the kids, something for everybody. Then somewhere somebody decides they want something to make their heart beat faster, and there goes your history and sightseeing, replaced by the Borg Assimilator. There's quite a few rides like it around, but it's more exciting at the time. Once you get a Borg Assimilator though, you don't get a sternwheeler or smurf houses back. You do the same with all your wooden roller coasters and you don't have to wonder where history, sightseeing, and the unique things about your area went.
