Are you opposed to offensive jokes?

[EMILY]

Do you find the people who tell them to be corrupt and immoral? Or do you take them light-heartedly? Just mildly curious. Sometimes, I think, some of the jokes I tell might be slightly overreaching, and I'm unsure as to whether or not I should feel guilty about this. I do tend to feel bad after I tell them, as though the jokes reflect my genuine morality. Am I a terrible person? I have always had a penchant for telling shocking and, at times, offensive jokes. I'm feeling very guilty over this right now.

at my school, people are always telling offensive jokes. its mainly about ethnicity or race.
for example im korean and my white friends always make fun of how asians have tiny eyes or talk strangely but i dont really mind. i know that they are joking and they dont mean any harm.
however there can be times when people go too far with their jokes

I don't judge people by their jokes if I've met them for the first time because that wouldn't be right, but if I know them very well I would think that a mean joke is offensive.

Not at all. I do it all the time. In fact, I particularly like to target people that are too nice to take offence, or play along. Am I a horrible person? Not sure. All I know is that it's funny, and, well, that's about it.

Of course, I wouldn't go as far as: 'Your mom's a **** and you're never going anywhere with your life' or 'You're a failure, go kill yourself'

But. Asides from that, as long as the other person won't staet pmsing on you, why not?
