So these rapists are... I mean these....

Drunk or not, it still remains all 7 billion of us are the same species. Argue my delivery, that would be a better argument, but I have never lost sight that we are the same species, and as long as I am lucid, I never will. I have no fear at laughing at life, including myself and others. 

I don't ever want my fellow humans to think of our world population as "other" because we are not. But I am not going  to always censor myself because someone doesn't understand the context of my humor or think I should never joke like this. 

I don't care if the intent is good, the game of "never say" is a dangerous one long term on all sides. If we all got to silence someone for offending the other, there is not one individual out of our 7 billion that could not think of something they would rather not hear. 

So again, argue my delivery at best. But that is it. Others got it. You not agreeing with it does not mean I should not say it.

Brian, WTF are you going on about?  

I clearly said that I "got" the sarcasm/joke in my post above. Did you even bother reading my post before you started yammering and moaning about my disagreeing with you? Hell, the OP didn't even have a point, as far as I'm concerned....So what's there to argue about?

And, yeah...your delivery sucks. Obviously.

Yea ok, thanks for agreeing with me. It wasn't that I was wrong, or that I should not have said it, but even you in this post made it about my delivery. 

Ok, fine, you didn't like it. So? 

I do think others here did like it and got it and are not hung up on it.

I didn't actively like or dislike your joke, tbh. Don't really care about it one way or the other. 

You were getting bent out of shape, so I was simply explaining to you how others might have jumped to the wrong conclusion. You do have a habit of expressing your ideas and thoughts quite poorly at times. Then you become indignant, frustrated, (and occasionally enraged) when people are unable to "see" your true meaning and intentions...as if the failure is theirs. 
It's not. Not always, anyway.

Unrelated to that, there's also the matter of you taking offense at imagined insults as a direct result of your neglecting to read for context.
That's not good.

Oh, good, so it wasn't just me. I was really starting to wonder there for a while. I've seen quite a few of his posts around the forum and this OP post was the only one of his I noticed that didn't really come through clearly.

He's a smart/thoughtful enough guy; Pretty good writer, too. Just a tad self-focused and a bit high-strung from time to time, IMO.
Basically, your quintessential "temperamental artist".

Uh-oh.
Hey, Brian....you wouldn't hit a gal with glasses, would you? Cause I can go buy some!
