I made a 9/11 joke in front of someone whose brother died in 9/11. And he wasn't messing with me either.

Oh, sure. Respond but don't elaborate on what happened. That's fine.

I thought the topic was going another direction, geez.

But usually it's usually been joking about friends' dads who I wasn't aware were dead or gone. Hell I even accidentally did that my ex-boyfriend. >.>

I've never offended anyone with a joke as far as I could tell, though a couple of people I have known over the years seemed to take things the wrong way (that weren't jokes, but maybe insensitive). I've known people that have definitely killed a room though...

My cousin-in-law (who isn't white)'s best friend was the grandchild of authentic Nazis and his parents sounded pretty bad in their own ways. Sometimes he seemed to embrace it with pride and would tell holocaust jokes and stuff. One time he was on a roll (at a wake, no less) and one of the dudes right there was Jewish. He just stood there awkwardly. The Jewish guy ditched his wife and three little kids outta nowhere for some random chick though (unsurprisingly, it didn't work out), so fuck his feelings, I just felt like that story was kind of brutal.

I told a guy his tattoo sucked. Turns out it was in honor of his dead dad. I felt so bad.

Did you tell him he dishonoured his dad with that shit?

yeah, but he took it with such grace.

i was making an immigration joke cause he was mostly white, i'm white and the other guy working was black. he said it just wasn't funny simply cause he's had family struggle to get into the country.

Not sure it really counts, but I had a black friend in high school who adored racist black jokes.

Not exactly. But I remember making an opinionated comment during a discussion that might've offended one my co-workers because of a particular affiliation they have.

Interesting to read the examples, but not sure I have a story of my own. I only tell "bad" jokes/stories like that in front of people I trust and when there isn't anyone else around that would be offended (that I know of).

The way I see it if you aren't gonna tell a joke like that in front of the group being poked fun of, you shouldn't be telling it at all.

That way they can either laugh with you, or tell you off.
