I'm sure many did find it amusing and others didn't. Different people go for different reasons. There is also the fact that the burning of the man is part of a communal ceremony and ritual and that person tried to take that away from everybody.
Kind of like the lighting of firworks on the 4th of July has a ceremonial and ritualistic role other than just the fact that they were exploded. They were going to be destroyed anyway, does it really matter if Uncle Bob got bored of waiting and set them all off the morning of July 2 without anybody else around?
Personally, I found the burning of the man the least interesting part of the week (and the mood of the place didn't really get good until the day after when all of the posers who were there just to see a big fire and naked boobies left; everybody tried too hard before that), but surely even in an anarchist group there can be value seen in group rituals? And also, even if your anarchism means you don't do anything to prevent it, I assume it is still allowed for you to be personally annoyed or pissed off by the actions of others?
