Now my stance is that you can make joke about ANYTHING.
And I mean anything, the only thing I don't do jokes about is animal crualty, but as I said I belive you can make jokes about anything I won't stop others from doing jokes about it. I just don't do it, and probebly won't laugh about it either.

Now my humor is sick enough and in bad taste enough that I have scared people, one guy has even blocked me on msn when I do my bit about making mass killings funny(my theory clown suit)
Just becasue I make jokes about it dosn't mean I condone it in real life, I can make funny jokes about tortureing peole with a comfy chair, dosn't meant I condone real torture.

But the paradox is that the same guy the blocked my, loves this comeadian name Stephen Lynch, I guy that makes jokes about kids dying of SIDS, or cutting up children with chainsaws and the eating them on halloween.
So because he is a famous comedian he can make those jokes, but because I'm not I can't
I'm not saying people have to find my sense of humor funny or even like it, but I should still be able to do it.
Theres lots of stuff I don't find funny but I'm not going to stop people form doing there stuff

A: Tell them? No…

I would say being attractive helps a lot.

Lee Brilleaux Fezian29 May 2009 8:32 a.m. PST

Attractive?

But I understand that Gunfreak is an Adonis-like being with a Charisma of 23.

I got that from his grandmother, so it must be true.

And yet, he says it's not helping here.

But I understand that Gunfreak is an Adonis-like being with a Charisma of 23.

Are you coming on to me?

I might be a Adonis-like being, but my charisma is like -3
Because of my brutishness and agressive humor.

My jokes are usualy in the ally of

"you know what would make a realy funny aprilsfools joke?
Shooting someone in the stomach and saying APRILSFOOLS!!"
I even implied it would be funny if someone did that to the primeminsiter.

Now I'm not saying it's a good joke, but it's quite obious a joke even if a bad one.
And I still think it would be funny, I mean if someone shot me in the stomach on april 1st I would get the joke.

Lee Brilleaux Fezian29 May 2009 10:42 a.m. PST

Yeah, those limpid blue eyes like pools of deep water don't really make up for the bad jokes.

Sorry.

The proof's in the pudding, Gunfreak. If they don't laugh, it ain't funny, and even 'famous' comedians bomb.

The greatest proof of Streitax's comment is in the movie THE ARISTOCRATS the documentary of the great Ameircan performance gag, that all comics know, but don't tell in public.

Usually.

At the Hugh Hefner Charity Roast for 9/11 firefighter's familys, Gilbert Gottfreid got up to speak, and his first joke was "I'm happy to be here, but worried about my flight home to LA – it has a scheduled stop at Floor 78 of the Empire State Building." Groans of derision and a yell of 'too soon' greeted this.

Gilbert mulled this, and his face worked. Then inspiration seemed to strike. He launched into the raunchiest most x-rated version of the Joke imaginable, interspersed with snide comment sto Rob Schneider who was rolling literally on the floor in hysterical laughter, among everyone else. It actually saved him and he recieved a thunderous applause for the performance.

So, it depends on the person and the circumstances.

ah THE ARISTOCRATS, now that a great joke of the whole family to enjoy

Covert Walrus23 Jun 2009 8:33 p.m. PST

a great joke of the whole family to enjoy


That slip actually defines the joke itself – well done Gunfreak!!

His eyes are like pools . . . cess pools.

His nose is like a mountain stream . . . it's always running.

His mouth is like a cave . . . it's always open.

Most of Red Skelton's jokes were really bad (not in-poor-taste-bad, just stupid and inane); but they always made you laugh….
