The post was so ludacris, that's the only counter argument that seemed to fit.

I must be alone in thinking that it really was quite good.

Seriously, if this was a week after it happened, most of these comments would be in very bad taste, regardless of where they are posted, but it happened how long ago?

Of course, when my dad died we were picking out his coffin and headstone and cracking jokes about it, so maybe I am not the best voice of reason here.

I don't find any of the crap posted above even remotely funny and I'm questioning a bunch of people who I grew to respect over my time on this board. What you guys are doing here is just sick, but keep it going if that makes you feel good about your disgusting personality.
Sounds like you need to get some head.

In other words, you don't understand and you don't want to understand.

Do I go to a bank and expect open-handed charity? A church and expect copious profanity? A Michael Bay movie and expect a coherent story? Only a fool would expect any of that, and the fault lies not in the reality but in the expectation.

FYI they're going see it more if you report a post. A very underused function.

Ok guys, let's just make fun of 9/11 victims because that would be hilarious. Or how about we make fun Luc Bourdon?? Taylor Pyatt's girlfriend anyone?? How about making fun of Graham James for touching Theo Fleury's pee pee?? haha, that's funny right?? The guy was molested!! hahahahaha, so funny. Or let's make fun of Phil Hartman for getting shot....hahahahah, so funny. Or how about Chris Benoit killing his young son?? I mean, that's so funny, let's make fun of it.

If you guys are making fun of this, then I guess nothing is out of bounds.

I'm all for inappopriate humor. God knows I make horribly racist and sexist jokes all the time, but I know where to draw the line. You guys clearly don't and truly need to check yourself.
Family is always your toughest critic.

I understand that you may dislike this, but isn't the mantra on this board (at least, the most often quoted) "If you don't like it, just ignore it"?

That's exactly it. Either nothing is out of bounds or it all is. Why is it okay to make racist and sexist jokes, but not make fun of death? Who sets the arbitrary line?

Offending living people = Okay
Offending dead people = Out of Bounds

Got it.

It's not like I'm on this forum or online making these jokes. I make them when im just bs'ing with the guys. And if jewish, black, asian or natives generally laugh at the jokes or tell them themselves, who's really being offended. It's not like I go up to a black guy and tell him to go eat some chicken or tell a native to go have a drink.

You took that comment totally the wrong way.

Let's say Jarome Iginla was killed 4 years ago by a sick maniac who cut off his head and was eating him, do you think you guys would be cracking these jokes?? NOT A CHANCE!!!!

That's my last post in this thread and it couldn't come too soon.

Some of you guys need help.
