Apology

Jan 29, 2006 23:52

Now, to anyone who's lurked around the lj-pages today, you may have notice that I rantingly made a fool of myself over a series of jokes that I still find to be questionable, but must admit I went overboard on. Bethany, I really am sorry that I spammed your journal with ravings. I should have immediately moved it to my own journal, such that I ( Read more... )

Phil, the reason that these jokes are funny is because they are so outrageously untrue. I have seen just as many stupid women as stupid men (actually I've probably seen more stupid females simply because I've overheard a lot of conversations in the bathroom). I got all the jokes in one bundle on the internet, so I figured I might as well post them together. If I ever find some funny jokes that bash on women all clumped together I'll probably post them, too.

I didn't mean to offend, but I figured that my friends are all smart enough to laugh and realize that the jokes were not told to be malicious. All in good fun. After all, most jokes tend to focus on a certain stereotype, this time it just happens to focus on guys. You can't tell me that's something new. Look at how often guys are made fun of. Or poor people. Or college students for that matter.

Anyhow, I'm sorry that they seemed tasteless to you, but please understand that I didn't mean to cause any harm by them.

I should also say I'm sorry for giving you the impression that I thought you meant something malicious by these jokes. I never had any problem with you at all. My problem was with the material itself, and the mentaility of whoever thought them up. I should also add that I'm very well awake that other groups besides men are made fun of, and I would most likely feel the same way about those jokes because of their nature. I know we'll have to agree to disagree on whether or not it's very funny, but I thought I should at least be consistant.
In the end, I am ready to bury the hachet and make peace. Will you pardon me?

How many jokes are out there about girls? I think it's funny how frustrated people can get over one little thing and then forget to realize that there are a million other jokes they laugh at which are directed at a different group. Just try to relax and laugh a little.

I do my best to recognize all steriotypical jokes and laugh at none of them. If I am ever guilty of mistaking one of them for genuine humor, please do have the courtesy of telling me of my misjudgement. In the meantime, I've said my piece and jumbled the whole thing, and now that I've dug myself out of a figurativehole, I am going to take your advice and relax rather than dig my ditch anew.
