Jokes & Comedians - What's Funny or Offensive


Expert: Lucas Werner - 9/26/2008

Question
Most comedy I hear is based on true life experiences, how do you distinguish what's funny and what is offensive?

Answer
Funny is funny. However, what comedians refer to as blue humor is what some may find offensive or controversial. If it makes people laugh, say it. Words alone hurt no one and are basically meaningless. And if they do, they probably shouldn't listen to them.
