Poll of the Day > This Girl got MAD at Me for being OFFENSIVE!!! (Should I still talk to HER??)

(+) Yeah! (+)

So I was talking to this girl, she seemed nice and relatively pretty and we were talking back and forth and I made a stupid joke. A day later I apologized for making such a bad joke, but it turns out she thought it was really offensive. That wasn't my goal, I wasn't even thinking of disabled people when I said it, from my experience, the people who use those things are just fat and lazy. Now I feel very restrained when talking to her. I absolutely love dark humor (not humour, wtf), nothing is ever off limits and I think she's being uptight. We talked a few lines longer, then she ignored me for a few days and just responded. I don't currently have any better prospects and think she is attractive and I liked talking to her before she got offended. Do you think I should respond??

Wednesday

Me: I suppose it is. I've only been there a few times but it was generally an adventurous experience. In middle school, I saw a guy in a wheelchair move down the sidewalk by taking steps in it (hard to explain, basically he was sitting in the wheelchair and moving it with his legs)'

Her: i've seen/done that.

Me: I guess it's more common than I thought. Sometimes the situation calls for sitting/walking at the same time

Her:it can be a lot more accurate than using the wheels. also sometimes your arms get tired.

Me:Geez I guess, it's still an extremely amusing sight to behold i think anyway. I wonder if those lazy people motorized things stores have are fun to use, I would like to try one but I'm cursed with being physically abled

Her:they actually suck. you're not missing anything.

Me:That's moderately disappointing, I was hoping it would be like Mario Kart

Her: it is nothing like mario kart.

Me:What a shame. Maybe the kart itself, but at least I could toss some banana peels if I use it at food lion

Her:they're really slow and unwieldy.

Me:That's probably for the best, it will lead to less crashes, though to be honest, I sometimes get the urge to ram my cart into them if they're taking up the whole aisle or doing some other ludicrous nonsense

Thursday

Me:That was pretty dumb I guess...

Her:i know a fair number of people with physical handicaps so that sort of humour doesn't do it for me

Me:Sorry. I do like dark humor.

Her:i mean, there's dark humour and then there's being mean.

Me:I suppose. Kind of a fine line

Her:it really is, and super subjective

Me:Thank goodness for dank means. They're generally pretty accessible to all

Her: mostly

Me:Their dankness is amazing though

I'm playing this game called chrono trigger for the first time, it's not completely horrible

Her:i've never heard of that

Me:It's a classic, like 20 years old on the super Nintendo. It's an RPG but it has a unique style. Also the guy who made dragon ball z designed the characters which is awesome

Saturday
Her:that's a lot. what's the storyline like?

Being as it's online who cares?
Although with that said I couldn't get along with anyone who doesn't like banta.

Seriously? Get butthurt and pulling the "I know people like that, I'm offended" card? I avoid those types of people like the plague. Lighten the fuck up, woman... It's not fun to be around people that make you watch your mouth. I'm generally fairly accepting of others (surprisingly) and don't take differing views personally, or obvious jokes, but "easily offended" types are basically a sure fire way to enrage me.

If you hadn't told me, I would have had no idea which part was offensive to her.

On topic, it doesn't really matter either way.

You both hit a wall. There's no harm in trying to win back her favour but it'll take some time and effort on your part. On the other hand, simply accepting that you're not her cup of tea and vice versa is not a sign of defeat or loss. There are plenty more out there who can appreciate your humour.

Also, don't waste your time, if you can't be yourself around someone then they're not worth your time. The conversation doesn't seem enthralling by any stretch, and she doesn't look anywhere near anything special, so fuck her.

Also, you don't need constant "prospects", just do what you do and a nice girl will come in time.

Edit nvm, honestly that was a pretty arrogant/ignorant thing to say. "If only I was as lucky as those lazy people using mobility scooters"

At this point you essentially scream lack of perspective and shallow mindedness.

It was a joke, not a dick, don't take it so hard, mate.

EDIT - On a side note, you do realize your post reeks of hypocrisy, right?

Except it wasn't a joke and that's actually how TC feels. That's the difference.

Except it clearly states it was a joke in the OP, unless you know the TC irl? No, thought not.

Yeah, she looks like someone who would be offended by something like that.

He didn't mean handicap anyways. I took it as those huge fat people that have to use mobility scooter because of their size.

Anyways, tc i loved your joke, especially the banana peel part. I couldnt control my laughter at it hahahahaha

Edit: oh and i think you should still talk to her. Maybe not end up in a relationship but she sounds like a okay friend. She looks like she is super bitchy though, could just be my biased after readin her convos.

Well, at the very least that's the vibe I got reading the texts and that's probably what the girl thought too.

The topic title is formatted like Duckbear's, but there's no "But is she hot?!" poll.

He made a sweeping generalization about people.

Fair, next.

As someone who worked in a grocery store, specifically walmart, (which is bigger then your average grocery store) I can say that people who push carts are just as likely to get in the way as people in mobility scooters. In fact because the small percentage of scooters, you experience being blocked far more often by people with carts.

Pfff

Fuck that bitch

I sincerely doubt that he literally thought it would be similar to Mario Kart, bananas and all.
like wtf man

You people who act like you know me, don't know SHIT! You ain't my mom! You can't read my mind!

Well that's enough angst. I do have the unintended urge to joke and say weird things especially when the conversation starts dragging and it was feeling really forced before that happened. It was kind of funny actually, a few minutes after she sent it, some girl messaged me out of the blue and she has been an absolute treat to talk to, so unless things fail with her (which given my track record on that site) I wont message the offended one back.

Hey man, if someone can't stand you being you, they are not the one.

jesus that was cringey

Is she mad? Seems like she just didn't find you very funny.

You've shown her really bad taste in
"I'm cursed with being physically abled"

And you've shown her hate/aggressiveness in
"to be honest, I sometimes get the urge to ram my cart into them if they're taking up the whole aisle or doing some other ludicrous nonsense"

Then you apologized in
"I made a stupid joke."

And immediately took that back in
"Sorry. I do like dark humor."

Note that not being serious, is not the same as humour.
I couldn't detect any (dark) humour in your "ram my cart into them" remark.
I doubt she's very offended. But apologizing and then taking it back with the very weak "it was a joke" didn't help.
You might be incompatible with her.

she looks like a feminazi....ditch her.
