Prejudice?

[viking60]

[rolf]

More like stereotype, isn't it? It's funny (funny, strange, not funny, ha-ha) how some prejudices/stereotypes are embraced as humorous or otherwise acceptable while others are immediately condemned by some or another trigger-happy slogan-mouthing arbiter of PC.
It's a matter of context, a matter of the speaker and of the audience. It's a tightrope.

A little depends on the speaker of this stereotype but it's neither terribly offensive nor particularly humorous, atm, to me. It depends on whose ox is being gored and, if possible, it's better to try to not let your ox get gored, move onto better uses of your time.

Yeah humor is a dangerous thing - Preferences vary:


Why cannot all people have great humor like me?

Of course, a humble berserk cannot know these things but I think there can only be one Über-Berserk

And then we have those who aren't prejudiced, but hate everyone by default.

Not either to me, either. But then, I've seen so much cartoon-make-a-statement stuff in my lifetime that I'm inundated with it, and because of it, nothing is particularly funny any more.

I think it would take much better than The IT Crowd or Monty Python to make me smile or laugh any more.
