If thinking certain jokes are funny
or that people who are offended by such jokes are bad, is what it takes to be one of the cool kids around here? Let me just say right now that I want no part of it.

End of disgusted rant. Feel free to shun me at will.

3. Would've been wiser to let this die.
I imagine this will develop into another 100+ flamefest.

16. No, it's not.
People do not have a right to say whatever the hell they feel without any consequences. I have a right to voice my feelings on things. If YOU don't like it, then why don't you follow your own advice? You didn't have to respond, you know?

27. I just hate
that anyone who's upset by anything gets shouted down and shamed. I really do get that sense around here. I honestly am not that quick to offend. I also don't believe that anyone is immune from criticism, or that it is never okay to criticize. Sometimes it IS okay to call someone else on their shit.

You've certainly called enough people on theirs. And I've often agreed with you when you did. Not always. But, I never would have been one to say that you were being unreasonable, or that you should just shut up.
