I don't understand why anyone would be sensitive to short-bus jokes and then ride along with clown porn posts as if that was much more normal.
What if one of us had a brother/sister/child who was a clown?
What if I'm offended about pornography being thought of as funny?
But really, what about fat kid jokes? What if one of us is fat? Do we just stop telling jokes because some one might get offended? Or do we just deal with the fact that life is full of shit and sometimes telling jokes is just a way of dealing with it from time to time? I mean after our problems one thing that kept us going wasn't clamming up about it every time it came up, but just laughing about it more and more. We delt with it and it got better and people didn't feel awkward around us because they were afraid they'd offend us. But we have thick skins I guess.
The answer to your questions is basically shut the fuck up. You want to make fun of my child, you go right ahead. And if you don't understand the difference between short bus jokes and clown/horse jokes, you're not worth one second of my time.
Oh grow up! You act like you never made these kind of jokes when you were younger, but I bet you did.
The point is that you act like a jack-ass to half the people here and then you suddenly expect us to get all sensitive to your one personal trauma. Like you are the only one with problems.
You might pretend that people are personally attacking you when you hear them joke about people who are slow, but you know they aren't. You know they are just trying to let off steam and have fun, but none of us can really have fun in this world can we? We always have to be serious because something bad has happened to all of us. Something awful and twisted is always around the corner, but if we can't be light-hearted from time to time what is the point of even going on? Do we all have to live in a dark closet and cry all day?
I've done enough of that to last a lifetime. Enough is enough. It is time to realize that life is short and our problems are temporary. No one will remember us or them in 50 or 100 years.
