There is most definitely no precedent for making fun of the mentally ill here at forums.somethingnice.com

Gee man you sure got a point there, but there's a bit of a double standard here, don't you think? If someone here posted a thread "Ask me about my roommate who's confined to a wheelchair and the awesome jokes I make behind his back" or "Ask me about living with a black person who's totally inferior to me and I remind them of it every day" they'd get torn to shreds. So why should a mental disability, of which a person may have no control over, which they may have been born with, be the subject of light-hearted comedy?

This isn't even about mental illness, this is about someone who never grew out of HEY MUM LOOK I'M SPIDER MAN, which is hilarious.
Holy poo poo, you're right, this behavior, which displays all the signs of mental illness, is loving hilarious, because it's not mental illness, because if it was, it wouldn't be so loving hilarious!!!
