Aunty Acid by Ged Backland for September 15, 2024

I wondered how that worked. Now I know.

It’s all in your point of view.

I find it offensive that you are happy!

A repeat, but worth repeating.

Her happiness is at the expense/offense of others

I’m just going to have to find something she finds offensive so I can be happy?

She must have all the episodes of “Rick and Morty”… as my son does.

I’ve been saying that for a while now

Yep….not taking yourself so serious!!!!

Happy… You’re a Miserable old coot.

Not necessarily. A lot of racism, sexism, antisemitism, Islamophobia, homophobia and many other dehumanizing commentaries are expressed as jokes. Then when held to account for the slurs, people will backpedal with the excuse, “I was only joking.”

I can think of a few things that fit into today’s subject. I’m on your side, Aunty!

Probably, Aunty. But I found it hilarious too.

It’s getting harder to not offend some people, that’s their problem. See now I just offended people.

Her husband is probably happy too. Remember the old song:

If you want to be happy for the rest of your life

Never make a pretty woman your wife

He seems to have succeeded in that

If I have offended anyone, please let me know. That way I can post dozens more like it.

this is our modern world – people getting defensive because they don’t understand that the dumb things they say offend people. funny is funny. offensive is not funny…
