More of a complaint than a rant; it's about you.

WHICH ONE OF YOU FUCKERS IS HAWK AND WHICH OF YOU IS NEPHEW TWIDDLETON?  I CAN'T TELL WHO IS BEING A JERKFACE.

I am JERKFACE.

[Freeky]

Fine, fuck you both. 

[Nephew Twiddleton]

I'm Twid. He's not.

[Freeky]

Okay.  Sorry to you for "fuck you."

Race jokes, misogyny jokes, fat jokes, blond jokes, Irish jokes, rape jokes, religious jokes, scat jokes and all manner of grossout jokes are all hilarious.
The best kind of humour offends.

As my sister in law would say "grow a pair".

So, if someone tells a joke about Gays here, and one of the LBGT crowd gets upset about it, it's the LBGT person's fault?

I mean, I want to understand exactly what the standard is, here.

It's context, the same joke expressed differently has wildly different outcomes. Also there is never any fault to someone getting offended any more then someone laughing at a joke others would take offense with

[Nephew Twiddleton]

The other Twid admitted to being the jerkface too.

Okay, just wanting to get the standard straight.

There is another time that I would hold gross jokes and puns in a sacrosanct manner, apart from ironic racism or homophobic jokes that really parody bigots there is the sheer joy of telling ye most offencive joke you can when in company of those you dislike intensely and hope never to see again.

I agree with this, and that the really really offensive jokes are ALWAYS funny, but the one posted was lame.

[The Rev]

I have changed my name back for clarification. If you people don't think what is posted is funny, or up to your standards, then try fucking ignoring it instead of creating a fucking board war.

This is complete bullshit and disgusts me.

Got that guys?  If you disagree with anyone from now on, you're not allowed to discuss it, you have to ignore it, IOW shut up.

Strife is bad, mmmk?

Go fuck yourself. You come in the discussion in the 11th hour for no other purpose than to stir shit up.

[Don Coyote]

I'm fucking disappointed in some you asshats. Crying because someone pointed out that your fucking joke wasn't funny and why it wasn't funny.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Joke made. Offense taken. Hilarity resulted.

I know I offended the hell out of Cram yesterday.

Why wasn't that "hilarity"?

Well, that was an open attack and not an attempt at humor. I see a big difference there.

So, if I'd honked a bicycle horn and thrown a cream pie while I did it, it would be okay?

Are you deliberately being obtuse? You damn well know the difference.

Nope.  I do not.  Because I attacked a particular person, it isn't funny.  If I attack an entire race or gender, it's funny.  I don't understand that.

Bullshit, no race or gender was attacked and you know it. If there hadn't been such a over the top reaction to a dumb joke the entire thing would have gone away. In true Discordian fashion we merely reacted  to the reaction.

This just gets better and better every time I leave and come back. Apparently "LOLMISOGYNY" is an over the top reaction, but pages and pages of butthurt over someone saying "LOLMISOGYNY" isn't.
