Off Limit Jokes

[Tuvatuva]

What are some things you think you shouldn't joke about? I think nothing should be off limits unless it's something that's just too close to home and relevant.

For example, I have a friend who sells drugs to his friends, and there are times when I want to yell "It's the cops!" whenever I see him just to see the reaction on his face. Of course I don't because that would be really not cool.

I have Ukrainian and Israeli friends, and I don't joke about the currently ongoing wars happening in their countries. Maybe after the war I will.

Mocking someone's parents or kids, or spouse. Even silly yo mama jokes are mad disrespectful where I came from, but I do it online.

 

[LEWIS540]

Only ones that aren't funny.

Race .










Unless it's the Irish. 'Cos they won't get them anyway....x

 

[Ponchik]

Family members and disabled people.

Race .

For me it depends which one.

I do your mom online.

Mocking one's partner is crossing the line. Who the hell makes fun of other people's kids? I wouldn't make yo mama jokes to anyone who's not from a culture where that's not commonly accepted.

Cultural factors should be considered to avoid confrontation. One time my friend almost got jumped by these muslim guys because he made a comment about them being drunk when they were acting like assholes. That really pissed them off.

Race .

I grew up making racial jokes with friends so it doesn't bother me personally.

People are too sensitive and insecure. I don’t think I’ve ever been offended at a joke that wasn’t intentionally mean spirited. Of course you don’t want to make bad jokes that make people sad either

 

[Spam On Rye]

No jokes should be off limits.

Can't make fun of the alphabet people. Unless you want to be canceled.

Family members imo. Insult my kids and I could react violently.

Everything and everyone with exception of kids

Old construction habits die hard

Sometimes it s the other way around. Letting everything fly unanswered is also pussy behaviour.

Same. Kids were the only exception, and even then, you could get away with it if it wasn't about that person's kid or it was really god damn funny.

I got yellow carded my first day here because I joked about someone like I would at my previous jobs or irl. First day....

I am in the camp that intent is much more important than the topic.

 

[I Am Legion]

I would say if it's funny and comes from a good place, it's all good. I would stay away from peoples kids, and genocides. I do think we need to bring back racial jokes. If we can't poke fun at obvious things to bring us all together, that is a loss to me.

Dead baby jokes.
It used to be a thing.
