I have no hands and find knock knock jokes extremely offensive.  :mad:

I find them funny, so let's just shake hands and agree to disagree.

 ya know?

 many many moons ago when we used to take the camaro to the track, it was between rounds. it was the first night i'd managed to get past the 2nd round, and we had the car parked, with a battery charger hooked up. to do this, we had to remove the trunk lid. it was held on with pins.
 whelp, when it's getting close to time to get into the staging lanes, we can't find the pins. alex looks at me, and asks how the #%$% i lost em. my reply?
 "it wasn't me!! it was the one armed man!!"

 his jaw would've like to have bounced off the ground a half dozen times. i noticed he was looking past me, so i turned around. to see the one armed man walking behind me on the way to his car.  :bhead

In reality this is a demonstration not of taking offense , but rather a subtle little ploy called Building a moral high ground , and the pretending I was standing on it the whole time . It involves a bit of sneaky self deception rendering the user completely isolated from the fact he was purposefully missing the point, but also feeling good about his self at the same time.

I completely disagree

have your daughter get raped and tell me its a laughing matter...or better yet.... you yourself get it...then tell me everything is a laughing matter...have your family die in a fire, yup lets joke about it....oh hey your son was born with MS hahahaha wow how funny would that be.....


as far as you guys that think its funny and your Military buddies..... I don't give 2 craps if your in the military...obviously YOU do not have PTSD.... so its OK to laugh at others, that do....

straight up pathetic if you ask me....





One of my brothers committed suicide by hanging himself from a light fixture 21 years ago. Another brother and I still crack jokes about hanging his box of ashes from a tree outside...../shrug

These are Onion News worthy "news"!  :rofl

Nothing is so serious that it can't be joked about. Nothing.

Wow, I agree with Gscholz? Is the world ending?   :D

I think like lots of jokes, it depends on how close to home it hits you.  On the one hand, the joke seems funny to me as long as I don't think about it too much.  But I know a bunch of people in that particular business, and suddenly it's really not funny at all.  I guess talking to co-workers who need to talk about the things they've done and seen, but can't because it would either end their career or get them thrown in jail, gives a different perspective on the subject.  PTSD and the RPA (UAV, whatever) business is a really dark corner of the world right now.  So there is a small but growing population that probably would have thought it was pretty funny a short time ago, who now probably wouldn't complain about the joke but who also don't think there is anything funny about it because they're living the reality behind the joke.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

We also have an unmanned spokesdrone for giving press conferences it seems.
