Can we wait even a day to make stupid jokes like this

because it's unreasonable to expect every person on the planet to rush around to the location of each disaster

but you'd think we could lay off on the jokes for at least a day

apparently joking about a huge catastrophe like this moments after it happens is on par with not dropping everything and injecting yourself into the situation directly

1/13/2010 1:44:29 PM

What would be the point of waiting one day to make jokes? What would be accomplished by that?

1/13/2010 1:46:27 PM

oh ill inject myself into something

1/13/2010 1:46:38 PM

Too soon?

Doesn't it seem appropriate to let the immediacy of these things wear off?

Or are you seriously going to sit here and play Sorites with me?

1/13/2010 1:47:41 PM

I just think that people are overly sensitive to gray humor and I don't see the problem with it

1/13/2010 1:51:29 PM

I dunno man

Shit's pretty terrible out there, it seems like ridiculing it while it's going on is poor form

BUT DON'T LET THAT STOP YOU LOLLERSKATES INTERNET ET CETERA WEEEEE

You know during the holocaust the Jews helped sustain themselves with jokes about their predicament

1/13/2010 1:58:17 PM

probably true

but they weren't spoiled bougie babies posting on their internet from the safety of their first world privilege now, were they

dude do whatever and say whatever the fuck you want

i'm just surprised you don't find it inappropriate at all, but then again i'm probably talking to some spoiled little shit with a massive entitlement and exception complex so whatever, carry on

1/13/2010 2:04:16 PM

definitely too soon

" What difference does it make?"

if you're talking about the jokes, the difference is, the Jews were going through the horrible things and making jokes and you're not suffering anything from this earthquake and making the jokes...

sorta like when people who pick on their sibilings all the time beat someone up who makes fun of their sibilings...


and honestly, I just don't see any humor in making jokes about what happened to the Jews...I don't see the point in making jokes about any horrible mass deaths that happen...since when are things like that funny.

I mean I'm all for finding humor in bad situations to make them better, but when you're on the outside looking in making jokes about that situation is nothing more than making fun of the people going through it.

People who say "too soon" are just the ones who aren't witty enough to come up with a good joke

1/13/2010 2:05:44 PM

^^^^I fully intend to, and my appreciation of humor won't be changed just because some hippie was making the argument Like...its bad karma man

Calm down, Serj Tankian

1/13/2010 2:08:19 PM

there's definitely a difference between finding humor in a situation and being respectful enough to not make a joke about a major catastrophe less than 24 hours after it happens. if that means you lose out on your opportunity to make a hip thread on an internet forum that will be popular for about an hour then so be it.

Its not like anyone in Haiti can even see the jokes, so fuck it.

Its not like we are making them to their faces.

Now if TWW chartered a plane down to Haiti so we could all go down there and make fun of all of them in person, then thats would be wrong.

Jokes are going to happen.

If you don't like them, then don't read them or click on a thread you know is going to have them in it.

Get off your fucking high horse and stop being a little anal bitch.
