There's no accounting for taste. I'm ashamed to admit my father didn't find the works of Douglas Adams funny. I loved him anyway.

In any event, I don't think the piece is meant as a "ha ha" comedy. It's more of a contemplation or a work of philosophy.

Did it make you smile at any point?

Yes it did make me smile. My response was only half serious.

The moral I extracted was that free will is fake and humor is all that matters. If that's the case I'd have hoped he'd have thrown a few more jokes in ;)
