Hi all,
Ok, don't blame me - Che started it and NikNik suggested it, so here is the place to post all the funny jokes and not so funny jokes - still trying to figure out the surrealist/fish joke................
Regards, Jake

No worries Jake - I will refrain from Pirate jokes.
It's a great dilemma you both raise. Where is the line? What is approriate, what is inappropriate?
This dilemma happens in our every day life too.
A great example is in the current Beyond Blue racisim ad.
In my face to face interactions, my thought process is if the butt of the joke relies on the negative characteristic/sterotype of a group of people or person, I won't tell the joke.
Another way of looking at it, and I think what Kristin was referring to, if a joke was told in reference to a group/category that is part of my identity (could be a religion, illness, alot of different things) how comfotable would I be?
Anways - it's that fine, tricky line that varies for all of us. But I think, if you feel the need to put an apology disclosure meassage at the bottom, that's probably your intution saying you shouldn'tt post it.
But Jake.. your dog, duck & chicken jokes are great... I don't think they are easily offended 😉

Hey Jake,
You've gone all quiet on us, and I for one am missing your input. I want you to know I wasn't offended by the joke - but I reacted because one of my daughters is blonde (and the blonde bimbo stereotype is usually what blonde jokes foster). So I was straight with you about what I thought about it. I hope we hear from you soon. 🙂
Kind regards,
Kristin
