That's just not right!

i mean, funny is funny sure, but you can't seriously think of anything that someone could say trying to be funny, and others may find funny, that was unwarranted or wrong?

I say we need a thread so that we can find out.

Jokes, links, whatever.

Let's find some hilarious fucked up shit and post it here. I'm expecting some good stuff people!

Two rules:
#1: It HAS to be funny. Nothing that is just pure shock value.
#2: There needs to be a good chance that it would offend a large portion of the general public.

We already have a Youtube whore thread.

there is definitely something someone could say to you that may be funny to them and you would think "crossed the line." and i guarantee the same for anyone. but i guess since it isn't funny to you, it isn't funny and doesn't count.

like my friend, he loves making fun of retards whenever he sees them. he will laugh, point, sometimes even say loudly "look at that fuckin retard" followed by laughing. completely unfunny to me and just terribly mean. but he and few other people find it funny for whatever reason.

Yeah, I was kind of looking for that line as I have not yet found it.

No, "look at that retard! omg lolz!!" isn't funny. There is no joke there. That's purely just laughing at someone for being who they are. I'm looking for stuff with actual comedy value. For some FUNNY retard jokes watch that Jason Rouse bit I posted above.

Also I know we have a youtube whores thread...that seemed more general. And I wasn't expecting just youtube clips here, thats just what I used first.

I figured with some of the messed up sense's of humor here that this would have some potential here, but maybe I'm wrong and that's too risky for this place.

but what i was getting at is some people find some pretty fucked up/wrong things funny. just because you, wugwufy, or john doe think it isn't funny doesn't mean it doesn't count (holy triple negative). humor is subjective and sometimes it's too far (IMO LOLZ). personal attacks on people can be funny to others, and unfortunately it happens all the time.

just another extreme and possibly stupid example, say someone close to you passes away, and someone cracks a joke about it. say he was black, and someone says "well he was black anyway, who cares." would that still not be over the line? i for one would not find it funny at all... would you laugh at something like that if it didn't directly effect you?

No, I wouldn't find that funny without some strange convoluted situation.

You are probably right though. Eventually someone would probably end up posting something that is purely mean-spirited and call it funny.

I guess this wasn't a good idea. I was just hoping for some good comedy and hadn't thought out where this would likely end up heading.
