(3,342 posts)Well, mildly at least. It's not imaginative enough to be extremely funny.
I have a very high tolerance with jokes. Go ahead, tell a joke directed at whites, men, atheists, Americans and geeks (all of which describe me), and I'll laugh if it's any good. I'm a bit overweight, so go ahead and make a fat joke if you'd like, I don't care. My ancestry includes Irish, American Indian and German, so those jokes are fair game too. Try as hard as you want, you can't offend me with a joke.
I go with the idea of the South Park creators -- if you draw a line with humor, then you're a hypocrite.
I'd be a hypocrite if I could laugh at a good Pope joke and be offended by atheist jokes.
If we restrict ourselves by everybody's lines, then humor dies because every joke is bound to offend some overly-sensitive clod lacking a sense of humor.
