Comedians are always skirting that line between what is funny and what is offensive, which is difficult because that varies from person to person. I've seen people get offended over a rape joke about rapeseed oil because of their personal experiences, even though it was between two fictionalized seeds.Jandau said:
In this case, I don't think that there is too much to be offended about, since it is an absurd situation with an obvious joke attached and doesn't contain anything graphically offensive. Still, you certainly have the right to be upset with it, and you might want to write to the creator of the comic strip.
Or, you know, they could just get over it.ajemas said:
If a person doesn't like a joke, that's fine, but it's not like this joke is over the top or anything, and I certainly wouldn't think it was worth bothering the creators about.
Hell, he didn't even draw blood, what kind of slap worth slapping doesn't draw blood?
Amateur.
I'm not upset. I'm not offended. I just don't find the comic funny, mostly due to the subject matter and I posted in the thread dedicated to commenting on the comic to let the comic creator know that I for one did not enjoy this particular strip. I really don't see a problem here...ajemas said:
