Hello Escapist.

Have you ever heard a joke or seen a video that people find funny or were meant to entertain, but you just found either tasteless or horrible?

Well come one and come all! Share you tales with us!
I'll start us off.

I usually love Cyanide and Happiness cartoons, but this one is just horrific to me.

EDIT: Just in case embedding dosen't work.

EDIT 2: Clarification. The reason I find the cartoon disturbing is watching his life slowly degrade and implode inward on itself. May not unnerve everyone, but it sure gets me. Although it might just be me and my own personal phobias.

Anyone here ever heard of Leo and Satan? It's a hilarious little thing that I watch on Youtube. Anyway in one episode (I forget which one), Leo and Satan are talking about algebra and Leo says "this stuff is harder than the death of my sisters unborn fetus"...

I really didn't enjoy that episode...

i remember watching a tape of an old sturday night live sketch involving two aliens coming to earth
the first time they come the door to their space ship going down lands on a child and kills him
another time a child gets caught in the door and it appears that his spine snaps and he is killed as well they even show his mother crying about it
also im pretty sure they do it once more for good measure

that scarred me for life and SNL actually thought they were funny playing the two aliens as bumbling nitwits rather than MURDERERS

I have a personal discomfort for media were people sabotage their own lives. It might not unnerve everyone, it sure as hell unnerves me.

I was wondering this. It's really not the worst thing Cyanide and Happiness have done.
Really OP, if death is too horrible for you, I really don't think you should be watching things from a group called Cyanide and Happiness.

OT: No, I haven't found anything that makes me find it not funny because it's horrible, I usually end up finding it funny because it took the unexpected turn to horrible.

A lot of things Daniel Tosh says. He makes so many horrible sexist and racist jokes. The sad thing is I still laugh at them

Its pretty new, a few days if i am not mistaken, i just dont get the problem neither.

And even if it was published on the day Irvin died, satire has no boundaries, but the right to be evil.

You said you liked Cyanide and Happiness, but a few of their shorts are like that.

Speed Racist, Beer Run and Waiting for the Bus come to mind.

Anything that involves human suffering disturbs me. When someone makes a joke about very serious and painful events, I don't find it at all funny. Usually, depending upon the situation, I make sure to let them know what I think right away.

I don't really want to post anything.

Anything that disturbs me would also get me banzored. Anything that upsets me is usually quite trivial to others.

Example: I'm nervous around sealed foil packages because I think they contain human parts. I couldn't explain why, but it's wedged in the old gray matter.

Youtube comments, and general internet anonymity. A lot of what's said is in jest, but really it's just sad and pathetic people who've grown a pair of ball suddenly thanks to the glowing screen in front of them. The internet promised to be an communication network, that helped enlighten people, but min reality it just spread ignorance and hate with no responsibility.

As for shows, none really. A lot of people seem to get offended by Frankie Boyle, but the only thing that offends me about him is how popular he's got on one joke ( ".... you think that's bad, look at Glasgow/Scotland!!!"). It's very, very old.

I'm gonna come right out and say 9/11 jokes and rape jokes.

It just proves to the entire world how immature you are and how little you have honestly experienced in your life.
