60. Of course; the modified "Godwin's Law". Go to the worst to demonize the minimal

No, I'm finding the constant "offense" taken every day over the smallest of things sad not triggering. its just a symptom of the current society always looking for the offense. I wonder when we're going to be told to stop insulting Trump with any manner of fat joke; of which I've seen dozens here, because its insulting to fat people? And boy, do the people here come up with some good ones! But hey, thats what makes the world go around; difference of opinion.
