The only thing more boring than jazz is discussing jazz theory.

Take the Kenny G CD out of your player and put in some real Jazz. Problem solved.

If the thing I like is boring/bad/not cool, it must not be the real thing I like!

I take hyperbole way too seriously

I don't understand fallacies, or Reddit fomatting, or what hyperbole means, or jokes really

I didn't comment on the fallacy
I formatted exactly how I wanted to
There was no punchline, you just cited a fallacy.
How damn clever.
EDIT: Oh damn, you edited, he was pretty obviously exaggerating. If you didn't pick that up, that's your issue.

The punchline was the words I put the link on, ya dingus
How the hell is bullet a quote mark?
You still don't really know what hyperbole means.

It wasn't funny at all, at least be funny. All you did was reword the fallacy.
It functioned perfectly as one, to think otherwise is just pedantic. Also, a dash isn't a quote mark either, " is. If we're being pedantic.
He exagerrated as a figure of speech to prove a point. That's the definition of hyperbole.
Good game, though.
He didn't exaggerate anything. He assumed that because someone doesn't like Jazz, it must be the wrong kind of Jazz. That's almost a perfect fit for the fallacy, and that's what made it funny. If you don't like the joke, that's okay. Doesn't mean it's not a joke.
I edited to put the joke part back, because without it your comment's part about joke wouldn't make sense, and that's bad reddiquette.

He used Kenny G as a hyperbole for the extreme worst that Jazz is, and "real" in this case is usually used to mark the difference between "bad" and "good," it's an exagerration.
All in all, citing the fallacy was just silly and pointless, so I'm making fun of you for it.
EDIT: Basically, his original joke was the fallacy, all you did was try to piggyback a joke by explaining it.
