Joy Division is a fictional character in the Coventry City Supporters Messageboard SkyBluesTalk who is portrayed as being humourless, friendless and emotionless. He takes everything said to him totally literally and is entirely unaware of what is intended when a metaphorical statement is made. He also is unable to understand puns, for example he reads a joke from a Christmas cracker which says 'what is the difference between a buffalo and a bison? (you can't wash your hands in a buffalo)', to which he replies 'you can't wash your hands in a bison either'. His only purpose in life is to correct people in their grammar, knowledge or intention when they speak, often resulting in a violent reaction.
Joy Division visits a Post Officehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_office and asks if they sell postage stamps. When the woman working there answers, "Of course, how many would you like?",Joy Division corrects her by informing her that he only wants to know if they sell stamps, and that a purchase does not have to follow.
He then proceeds with telling her that he does "at present require a First Class stamp."
