    What? You don't want to? You think it is poor taste?

    Why? Such humor exists in our society and if people find it too distasteful, tough!

    Ok, those of you who know me know I am trying to make a point. Jokes on sensitive topics will upset people. And just as you have a "right" to post tasteless jokes, others have the "right" to disagree. And you have the "right" to disagree with them.

    I am not here to tell you not to post on sensitive subjects. However, don't be surprised if jokes on suicide or decapitation offend others.

    I am not normally into gallows humor, but some of it is funny. And sometimes it is upsetting. Don't judge those who laugh, don't judge those who cry.

    One of my friends was decaptitated. I didn't laugh. Of course, it didn't happen in a funny way.

    I have sat down and negotiated with suicidal relatives. The subject under discussion? Their time of death. Not, the if, the when. In Canada, part of the therapy to save their life is to allow them to kill themselves. It is a bizarre mindset. Some times you lose them, but usually it works.

    To those affected by my tasteless post title, I apologize. I used shock to make a point.

    Do I have an incest joke? Nope. It may be part of human nature to joke about such things, but I don't run with that crowd.

    Ok, here's one:

    I knew of a mother and son who had sex for quite a time. They had several children as a result of this union. I did not disapprove. Why?...they were cats. :)

    Agree with you, Skeptic. However, I think you can joke with everything, if not to all people. If people went to see a stand-up comedy act and knew this guy was outragous, they should not be too surprised if "tasteless" jokes came up. Same with TV shows, an informal chat in a party setting, etc.

    On a public forum like this, where people discuss sexual abuse seriously, and some victims are present, I will argue it is totally abhorrent and in bad taste. The same applies to suicide notes, especially in the context it was posted.

    Skeptic,

    Edwards suicide thingy was the funniest thing on this stuck up board in a very long time. (his using the caption: "suicide note" was disturbing is all)

    Suicide is a personal decision to take ones life, a right we all hold dear and something that has touched most of our lives. Pedophilia, rape and wife bashing are very different and involve hurting innocent defenceless others, a subject i have never seen joked about anywhere.

    unclebruce who sees suicide and accidental decapitation joked about on tv everyday. (usually in British sit coms)

    Suicide may be your right but it is devestating to the people that are left behind. Edward can say whatever he wants but don't be surprised when people who have lost people to suicide don't see the humour.
