But if it is obviously something that is not funny and will offend, why do it in the first place? Don't offend because you can apologize, apologize because you offended. :p

Well, I don't make these jokes in the presence of anyone who is of that particular race; that'd just be in bad taste.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

A majority of people here are experiencing the same economical problems, 99% of people here are white, 99% of people here are Orthodox or atheists, 99% of people here are either straight or pretend to be.
Perfect environment for jokes like that. :p

we are going to have to disagree, life is pretty arbitrary, while someties there is black and white, quite often there isn't.

i agree some do need the stick removed from their ass, otoh some really need it shoved up there.

Any jokes like that I make verbally, around friends. I take preference to puns and absurd humour anyway.

That's basically how it goes. No matter where you go, the artists are generally very helpful about the whole thing.

Oh good, that makes me feel more comfortable then.

I got hired at McDonalds to work the overnight shift, which gross but moooooniiieeee. And orientation is Tuesday at 3. I just got an interview from the job that I "want" and the interview is Tuesday at 1.... I doubt the interview is going to last two hours so I can swing it I think. I think working both will be possible, depending on what time I get off at McDonalds.
