Although i don't agree with someone making a thread about someone else's problem without express permission (seeing that Kram3r is fine with it is ok though) I do wish her luck with her recovery and my best wishes to both of you.
Anyway, hope it turns out well. I will pray for her.

I can just sense you both trying to be "controversial" and popping up with "HAH! FOOLED YOU!". It's not the kind of thing you "fool" people with, if you're half smart.
I already question the credibility, considering Kramer has chosen to commemorate such a sad event by making a pun out of a lyric by The Smiths. A song that, in itself, was ironically lamenting said person's girlfriend being in a coma.
EDIT: I've just noticed Axel also has the same song's lyrics in his sig. I'm going to assume this is a joke until factually and undeniably proven incorrect.
If it's a joke, I'm not going to flame or troll either of you, because you should both feel a bit dumb.

That's what I'm wondering too. You'd think something like that would be in the news and I couldn't find a damn thing 😕
The Fact that they also have the Smiths song in their sigs doesn't help the credibility either. 😕
Let me just clarify; I'm not against controversial humour or making jokes about anything, but so long as the payoff is conceivably funny. That makes it a joke.
I've laughed at jokes about paedophilia, for example. Not because I find the subject laughable, but because it was a comment made in jest, quite clearly to be funny and with a purpose.
Saying "My girlfriend was in a tragic accident...NOT REALLY!", isn't a joke, it's being an idiot to get attention. Something Kramer has quite openly done, and been about.

I generally have nothing against Kramer or Axel.
I'm just think this is an incredibly stupid and idiotic thing to do. Nothing more. It's not rabidly offensive to me, it's worse; unintelligent.
Kramer does things to piss people off, and this will piss people off if it's a joke. That's it. That's what he gets out of it. That is literally his payoff and line of thinking with these things.
Either that or he has trouble differentiating between close to the line or over the line comedy, and idiocy.

Well, I really hope it is a joke. Otherwise, it would really be sad.

I feel it would be more sad if it was a joke... For 2 reasons, firstly I lack any affiliation with this Chloe girl and therefor can't get sad over her being in a coma, the world would be a terrible place if you had to feel sorry for everyone who is in a spot of bother, the 2nd reason it would be more sad is because to joke about something like this breaches the realms of decency, and not in a groundbreaking funny way.
✅ I totally agree
