Japan jokes

[Matt Foley]

I heard two of them today. They were funny, but it made me wonder how much time must pass for something like this. I guess it's all objective. Gilbert Gottfried told one of the jokes, and supposedly he's catching holy hell over it. I bet Howard Stern would tell it in a heartbeat.

I will share the Gilbert Gottfried joke, just for you....

They have a saying in Japan...if your woman leaves you, don't worry...another one will wash ashore fifteen minutes later.

Too soon man.....too soon.

not funny, too soon. Either way I would be furious too if I had heard that on the radio

The only way a person can come up with that joke is if their perspective is so warped due to not ever experiencing anything like that. It's exactly opposite of insightful and is just sad. It requires a distance from reality that just doesn't feel intellectually healthy.

If somebody told that joke and got punched in the face nobody would defend them because nobody would be able to identify with the comedian in any fashion.

Remember that time you recycled an old joke to make fun of a world tragedy? No, you don't. Because you're not an idiot.

In fairness, didn't you start a "Godzilla" thread?

[Matt Foley]

Who was it that said comedy is tragedy times time?

Anybody else see "Jokes" in the title, then saw the Meat was the OP and said to themself "this is not going to be funny"?

Yes, but Godzilla is not reality. And even the Japanese Government was downplaying how bad it was, there is no way I would do that now.
