Well I maybe had a little smile, but it wasn't very funny. Easy jokes. The Oprah thing was funny but the rest of the page didn't follow the concept. Most of the jokes seem to be written by stupid nerds.
"It is estimated that up to 55% of all Opeth fans are also fans of Steve Wilson's Porcupine Tree, making it impossible for one to co-exist without the other having such a shared fan base. This is known as the Porcupeth epidemic."
On the contrary, the internets make me lol a great deal. Just not /that/ internets. Like I said ED is much funnier. But yeah, that entire article was forced and haphazard, as is everything on Uncyclopedia.
Mikael Åkerfeldt - Originally the lead singer of Opeth he and Steven Wilson are the same person. In another land there were aliens known as the Jeremy Kyle eaters also known as Oprahs when Steven Wilson discovered them he decided the best way to scare them off would be with long extended songs of shouting and chugging time shifting chords; but to avoid confusion to his perfection of Porcupine Tree he changed his name and hence created the alien of Mikael Åkerfeldt trying to save us from the Oprahs.
When you read the eloge of the rest of the page it is.. well it was for me. Shut up you douche. What makes things funny at 80% (random percentage) is the context in which they have been told.
You're right, which is why the page isn't funny. It's a bunch of random scattershot terrible nerd jokes with no relation to one another besides being about Opeth.
