12. Situational comedy can be funny
Mon Feb 20, 2012, 02:19 PM

but domestic violence is never funny. I see the point, she got tired of him telling her to stfu and make him a sandwich. I get it, but then she turns around and acts like a man and slaps the shit out of him. Since I know you would not take kindly to a picture of a man slapping the shit out of a woman, why is this okay? Just cause? Men in general deserve it? Because it is in cartoon form?

Who here sees the point in domestic violence? If anyone does, please let the rest of us know what it is.
