Sure, but the rape-comics are more interesting. Also, if enough of the hypersensitive pussies get together, they can affect the policies of their community (the SDMB, in this case) with regard to “offenseive” jokes.

Oh for fuck’s sake. Not one damn thing I’ve said in this thread can be reasonably interpreted to mean I’m in favor of “quashing free speech.” And even if it could be, which, you know, it can’t, this is a privately-owned message board. There is no freedom of speech guarantee here.

I’m not calling for censorship at all, “exactly” or otherwise. Did I say anywhere that **kidchameleon** wasn’t within his perogative to make the post that he did? No. I said that his joke was gross and congratulated him for recognizing that his joke was gross rather than accusing the people who thought his joke was gross of not being able to take a joke.

> [@HtB](#):

> I’ll still offer a spirited defense against name-calling, character assassination and pitting of those who attempt to make jokes that go awry.

And sweetheart, no one’s saying that you shouldn’t. But if you’re going to start pretending like there’s some fundamental right involved, then you ought to recognize that the rights of those who say they’re disgusted by the joke are exactly equal to those of he who made it.

Then the rape-comics need to rally equal or greater support to their side. Let me know when the Mods start contemplating banning rape jokes; I’ll be there telling them they’re full of shit for even thinking about it.

You mean Evelyn Beatrice Hall writing under the pseudonym Stephen G. Tallentyre in _The Friends of Voltaire_, right?

In light of everything else you’ve said on this thread, what you meant, in other words, was: You didn’t like the joke. Ok, good for you. No one else did.

Argument over.

The joke here is:

#1 I can’t wait for the audio commentary on that one!

#2 I hear the director’s cut comes packed with 2 more minutes of ass spanking.

As for the sexual act itself:

Had she been a worker at Wendy’s the blowjob is out, but the fingering is mandatory.

Taddah!

What’s red, cries and sits in the corner getting smaller and smaller?

A baby with a potato peeler.

If someone laughed at the old “Why did the chicken cross the road?” joke, I have a feeling there’s a contingent on the SDMB who would pit that person for not being sensitive to the travel needs of chickens.

Yes, it is a sick fucking joke. Because Nix, the guy in the linked story, probably had that attitude for real, at least subconsciously. What happened probably had less to do with obedience to authority, as discussed in the other thread, and a bit more to do with being given carte blanche to use and abuse an 18-y/o girl. He gets to see her naked, spank her and all the rest of it, and it’s okay because hey, it wasn’t his idea. So your “joke” and **kidc** ’s “joke” explain a lot about how this could happen.

> So at common law, forcible sodomy or oral copulation is not rape. Some jurisdictions define crimes like “forcible sodomy” or “criminal sexual assault” to punish such acts. Others include it in “rape.” It’s by no means a given that the correct word to use to describe the crime here is rape… IF **Futile Gesture** ’s objection was focused on that distinction. If the objection was that the force element of rape wasn’t present… it is.

Got to love the Pit, everyone always so willing to assume the worst and take offence.

Forced oral copulation is not rape. It’s wrong, illegal, a serious assault, a very, very bad thing. But not rape. Too often people are keen to describe an offence as the next worst thing, just to express their outrage. But once you start calling sexual assaults rape, what do you call rape?

And just to make it clear to all those broad-minded defenders of humour; **kidchameleon** ’s comment deserved a pitting not because it was sick humour, but because it wasn’t even approaching funny. It was lame, pathetic and bereft of any wit or intelligence. So that just left it being sick.
