People from the government/media often say they are serious, or to take a storm seriously, or that they are no nonsense people, which is not the same as being serious. They want to be taken seriously, that's why they're saying what they're saying the way they're saying it. When someone wants to get respect, or be respected, they'll say/do just about anything to get what they want, just like people will say/do just about anything to get money or anything else they want. It's the way people are, it's the way the world is as long as there are people in it.

Get the Serious case of yurbuds mug.A play on words of 'Curious George' which is a person that ruins an intended joke or light hearted comment by being too serious.
Joker: "Ha ha, when that kid rides by on his bike, you should throw a stick in his spokes."
Buddy: "That's not very cool, they could get hurt."
Joker: "...way to kill the mood, Serious George."

Get the serious-er mug.Hym "Yeah, and I think on some level you know that. So that's just more of me being right. 'There are gradations of seriousness and you will cherry-pick out the information that affirms your supposed superiority to me (moral or otherwise)' See that? I quoted myself. I subverted the paradigm. That's just me being right again. That's why it was so important for me to add as much context as possible. So I could sit here and watch you strip it way as though I hadn't provided it in the first place. RIGHT AGAIN! Didn't I say you would do that!? I'm like a seer! You don't care. It's the hitler thing and the post concussion syndrome thing and you don't really care either way. As long as you can use woman to validate your existence and nothing bad is happening to you in the present... It just isn't real. So the consequences of your willful ignorance remain ethereal. And it's funny because the claim is that your behavior is a manifestation of my behavior but it doesn't ever go the other way does it?"
