A discussion thread.
What's "over the line" for you as far as humor goes? Now I don't mean the response that you don't find it funny, I mean humor that offends you, pisses you off. For me, there really isn't anything that comes to mind that offends me in the slightest, and I'm kind of curious as to why people get mad over a joke. People usually get offended over dead baby jokes, or anything to do with Hitler, but I find both funny for different reasons; dead baby jokes are good lowbrow humor for ridiculous, outrageous behavior, and Nazi jokes are usually just word play puns that I find clever and humorous.
Oh, and also post some off-brand humor if you'd like. This is the humor department after all.
