I cannot believe you are making sick jokes about over 100,000 people being killed.
It really is not funny and you should be kicked off the site!
100.000 civilians have been killed in Iraq in 1.5 years.
Millions of kids have starved to death in that same period.
There are multiple tragedies happening all over the world each and every day, hour and second.
If you can't joke about it, you're gonna live one sorry and pitiful life.
Just because it's raw, doesn't mean it's less funny. Probably more so!
Originally posted by invigorateI wouldn't worry about being kicked off. Atleast, I should certainly hope bad taste isn't cause to be booted, otherwise I better start watching MY p's and q's (ba-dum-bum). (ahem), anyway, I agree with you. Neither funny nor terribly offensive. Atleast, that is, to anyone not personally involved (like myself).
An apology: I did not intend offend anyone.
I'm a member and I spend at leaat 5% of my life on this site. I would hate to be kicked off. I personally don't think the jokes on this thread were either very funny or deeply offensive.
Originally posted by Moldy CrowIn response to this - I do care if I get chucked off these forums(i.e the Jokes thread, as I am just waiting to get paid to afford my membership at the end of Jan.
They're not members . They don't give a damn if they get tossed from the site .
Judging from the content of some of this site, I find it hard to believe that people are calling for my expulsion.
However, if I have caused any offence to anyone then I apologise. Saying that, I agree with Invigorate and Shavixmir. You HAVE to be able to find humour in any situation. Life IS a tragedy. If everyone spent all their time being politically correct or always looking on the bad side of things the world would be a very dour place indeed.
If Moldy Crow would now like to retract his statement.
