You only think it's inherently tasteless because you're not tasty enough to think of an example that would change your mind.

So you wouldn't think that dressing as a Nazi, for instance, and posing outside Auschwitz would be tasteless, would be INHERENTLY tasteless? You don't think the photos from Abu Ghraib were tasteless?

I don't think it's impossible for any situation to be handled with wit. Abu Ghraib was not one of those cases, but I can see how they could be satirized in a tasteful way. I'm not saying that tasteless jokes don't exist, I'm saying that nothing is off limits for those who can appropriately approach it.

Yeah, but to be fair, what we have to take into serious consideration here, and remember, is that you are a ****. :)

I know. I also fail to see how making puns relating to someone's discography is mocking them. Better go alert the media before they accidentally spit on Tommy's grave with a headline.

I'm actually not saying that's the problem (though I don't personally agree with it): my point is that you basically lauded Uncle Salty for doing what I did, admittedly in a lot more depth and with more thought put into it. It was as if he was the only one to object, which I was pointing out was not the case. I don't really care to be honest; just wanted to set the record straight, not that you care.

And I do have a pun: He's gone Into the Great Wide Open now so stop Jammin' Me.

I was being sarcastic.

And you didn't like my pun? :(

It was the funniest thing that I've ever read.

The above statement is a lie.
