That’s actually a terrific idea. Add in a nightmare branch loaded with valuable objects and zombie hulks and shoggoths. The goal is to scavange something with a net on a pole and then quickly drive away. A strong garbage truck will come in handy.

I’m not sure whether that man is brutally stupid or psychotically suicidal. However, I am confident that his favorite past time after stuffing AK’s full of twinkies is huffing spray paint in his methlab while watching Jack Ass.

That’s how jokes work, though. They’re not funny if they’re not offensive on some level. I don’t think he meant anything bad by it, it’s making fun of a ridiculous stereotype. Hell, it sounds like something straight out of my friend Kenny whose parents are Mexican immigrants.

Actually, research into the nature of humour has found that one of the important conditions for something to be “funny” is that the person perceiving it has to find it somehow harmless, so sort of the opposite. (Another key component, which you may have been mistaking for “offensive on some level,” was a twist on or upset of expectations, i.e., the punch line.)

Humor works in an overlap between offensive and harmless. A totally ridiculous joke like “What did the robot say to the centipede? STOP BEING A CENTIPEDE!” aren’t funny because it’s not offensive on any level. “Why was Hitler okay? Because Jews are evil!” Isn’t funny because it’s just… nothing but offensive and pretty fucking antisemitic. There is an overlap, though, that differs for pretty much everyone.

I also think it’s ridiculous when people get offended on other peoples’ behalf. This happens to me waaay too often, but that’s neither here nor there.
