I understand these topics tend to evolve into a discussion on what should and should not be seen as offensive. I believe offensiveness is in the eye of the reader and what one does or does not find offensive simply is an "is". One can take a bit of guidence in assessment of such from the current guidelines as to the mission of the boards and the scope of what these boards are intended to be. Ironically, to me, is one of the first questions of the FAQ is: "What is going on here?"....
I question the setting. I'm not questioning that humor can't be part of PB. I am just not sure given the "spirit of the boards" that certain types of humor should be accepted.
My question is just that - a question. One which I do not hold much hope of receiving an answer from the site owner.
