Wow, this thread has gone from the toilet to the sewer.

Before any of you continue (Lakai, Streetsoffire, Brisbane) to make this thread worse, If I were you, I would apologize to the members of this forum to whom you might have insulted, be it intentional or unintentional.

And while I will agree that humor can be found in all sorts of racial, religious and even gender, sexuality issues, you need to know your audience and your relation to that audience.

Most of what I have read in the above posts is not only offensive, it seems to cross over the line of hate speech.

It's important that none of us take ourselves too seriously, but it's also important to know when you are blatantly offending somebody.

I'm not Black and I was even offended.

I disagree, many demographics have taken words thrown at them in hate and reversed them in an effort to remove the hatred. Plenty of gay people use the F*g word, but we have suffered it's hate-filled meaning for decades, call it a Badge of Honor, I don't use it, nor do I like it, but I understand why it's used, and no, you can't use it.

This thread really makes me wonder what a good number of these people are really like off the record...

This thread is embarrasing. Doesn't matter what colour you are, or what ethnicity, offensive language is offensive language. It simply doesn't belong in a public forum.
