Drunk Ninja Gay Robot Peacocks (White Giant)

guys?

lol

I have to say that it is really not cool to target gay people as the brunt of a joke. To say there is a federation dedicated to gay people is fine and good but to make it clownish by pairing it with peacocks and robots is not. If this "federation" is truly interested in promoting tolerance instead of hate and derision, I think that Saber needs to rework this and show some respect. No one wants to go onto a forum that makes fun of them for something they have no control over.

Don't be oversensitive. This thread is nearly 5 years old. Noone likes oversensitivity either.

over 5 years old and people decided to reopen it for fun lol.
besides my cousin is homosexual, im not making fun of the homosexuals but I am aloud to crack some jokes.

Alex you are obviously getting a lot of traction off your "jokes" including digging up this old thread that deserved to be left buried. I don't care if you or whomever else doesn't like the fact that I am standing up for gays to not be the target of your jokes. Whether or not you know or are related to people who are gay, doesn't give you any right to target them for your own fun. You need to understand that jokes like these aren't funny just like it isn't funny to make fun of someone's race or gender.

I really don't see where the joke lies... Am I missing more American Humour??

Ja, Amerikanisch...

I target everybody for jokes! Im an equal opportunity joke targeter! If I didnt target certain groups or types, id be prejudiced.

Well don't sit there and pick and choose who you defend then. Its not fair to drunks or ninjas either but its still funny. Youtube chris rock-how not to get your ass kicked by the police. that's funny, it makes fun of black people and makes white people laugh along with black people and thats equal opportunity

^ and Chris Rock is Black so
yea, lol.
I have seen Gays, Blacks, Whites, Latins, etc, etc make fun of them selves, it prevents others from doing it, and when others do it even they laugh.
I believe Mr.T don't got no sense of humor this round lol.

T Mac there's worse things in the world then associating gay people with robots an drunks as part of a non sensical joke grow up and stop being obnoxious

Ethnic, Color, sexuality, homosexuality and Religious jokes are part of life now a days, you can't just say "Stop making jokes about gay people, it's mean." cause well, no one cares if you think it's mean, i'm fat, I hear fat jokes, I still laugh my ass off. Your Avatar looks like a mentally ill kid, and if you don't have a mental disorder, that's can be a joke on your part. My nephew has Autism, I make some jokes, but when people go over the limit and start calling people with Mental disorders retards or genetic failures or any of that Bull shit I get pissed. Mr.T get a sense of humor, and stop being a baby.

Unfortunately it seems most of you who have responded here have little understanding of others as you justify making jokes that target subsections of our society for your fun. What I stated here is that you don't do that. The pushback you present speaks more about you and your needs to grow up than mine. To argue that I am over reacting is laughable. What are you stating here? That you need to make jokes that hurt others and not get feedback on that? This is a public forum where all members should be able to go for help and comradere not be made fun of because they are a minority. Why do you try to shout my objection down so vehemently? Because I'm ruining your fun? You can have fun but understand that if you pick on gays on this forum, I'll voice my objection. Every time.

Antonio you flipped out when I called someone retarded even when I was not using it in context...
and now you say actually using the context of fun with it is wrong... Or wait was it Constantine...?

"Unfortunately it seems most of you who have responded here have little understanding of others as you justify making jokes that target subsections of our society for your fun. "

I understand quite a bit actually, I understand that if you don't join in on the jokes, then you will become subject of the jokes T.

"What I stated here is that you don't do that. The pushback you present speaks more about you and your needs to grow up than mine. To argue that I am over reacting is laughable. "

You are over reacting, it is a long dead thread that someone decided to use for fun, it is dead and the makers of the thread most likely don't give a rat's @ss about what is said here now, or they aren't around on the game any more.

"What are you stating here? That you need to make jokes that hurt others and not get feedback on that? This is a public forum where all members should be able to go for help and comradere not be made fun of because they are a minority."

Calling them a minority is making fun of them, they are homosexual not a minority, they are homosexual, they are of all races, religious groups, etc, etc. Were cracking some jokes and having some fun, theres nothing to get even a little worked up about.

" Why do you try to shout my objection down so vehemently? Because I'm ruining your fun? You can have fun but understand that if you pick on gays on this forum, I'll voice my objection. Every time."

vehemently < never heard that word before.
but shouting your objections down we are not doing, were just telling you that we are having some fun, thats it. You can voice your objections and views but others are aloud to do the same, your shooting down everyone else's opinions and their just showing that they have their opinion and your taking it the wrong way, No one is shooting your opinions down just voicing their own.

"My nephew has Autism, I make some jokes, but when people go over the limit and start calling people with Mental disorders retards or genetic failures or any of that Bull shit I get pissed."

Phillip if you re-read you'll see I said I get pissed when someone calls another retarded as my nephew has Austisim, which is a mental disorder and retard is a negative description of people with mental disorders. I am going to get tested for ADD (Attention deficit disorder) this summer as it is impossible for me to concentrate on anything for longer then a few seconds before anything (no matter how minor) distracts me.

Mr T Mac, why don't you complain about the fed that's for heterosexuals that's requires big dogs and hunting? Isn't that just as goofy or have you been overrun and fooled by 'political correctness'?

Because of the simple fact you didn't, doesn't that show some major bias there?

Its all just goofing off, please don't be so easily offended.

Agreed Serpent.

Antonio calling someone a minority isn't offensive.... And homosexuals are minorities there are less of them then heterosexuals this makes them a minority.... T Mac you are completely exaggerating things we aren't making fun of anyone this is not hurting anyone... Can you point out the part of the apparent joke that makes fun of homosexuals because as far as I can tell its all non sense.... I have gay relatives and I'm for gay marriage and I'm against racism and generalizations so why are we on different sides of this argument.... Because your being annoying sanctimonious and priggish stop being petty and I complain about something that's actually relevant and serpent makes a good point

I find calling someone a minority offensive, as we are all people. there is no differance besides a few small things

But there are differences, people want to be unique, not comparable to others. A group of people also want to be different, original.

I mean if you see what I just said in a good context....

Phill you have been taking happy drugs haven't you? I have noticed a nice change in behavior.

After reading, and re-reading these posts and doing a lot of soul searching I have decided that some people are hatin' because they're jealous of my awesome unicorn avatar.

Antonio your ignorant Alex you speak the truth

I like this debate. The humor was about the absurdity of combining homosexuality, drunkenness, ninjas, etc. It wasn't about demeaning gay people. I'd have a problem with jokes motivated by hatred or filled with stereotypical assumptions, but that wasn't really happening here.

The bit about being a 'minority' is interesting too. The issue isn't just about numbers. Left-handed people are a minority, but jokes about left-handedness would not raise eyebrows.

That's because we're more concerned about minority groups with a history of oppression, who are or have been denied rights and privileges on account of some visible & immutable characteristic (i.e. race, gender, sexuality), and especially where the group is somehow politically disempowered.

It's not like all jokes relating to a minority group are off limits, but the fact that Chris Rock or George Carlin or whatever tell non-hateful jokes about that group doesn't excuse or justify hateful or demeaning jokes (which I don't think was happening here in any case). I guess context is key, as the saying goes.
