    How do people have to balls to say this? There are things posted in this thread every day that can offend people. Just because an event happened in America, it shouldn't be talked about or poked fun about? Example: The African child dancing meme. There are countless others. Not to mention, if everything remotely offensive was removed from this threat, it'd only be 100 pages TOPS.

    tl;dr if you get offended by picture meme's based on current events, the internet is probably not for you.

    edit: damn you d3v ;P

    Lol, creepy! posted at the EXACT same time O_O

    edit: I've already seen countless images about it, but I'd best not post one, as no doubt it would lead to an unjustified infraction or permaban.

    I think the difference is that the meme didn't actually happen (I think didn't look into the meme so soz if the kid is dead or something).

    That specific kid they use for that meme might not be dead, but it is using the kid as a joke about how Koby massacres people or whatever. One of the jokes I saw about this massacre was with the Joker, he didn't die from this massacre. At the end of the day it comes down to the same thing, joking about people being killed. People don't seem to have a problem with one, but do with the other? Oh right, we don't care about Africa, but if it happens in the west, it's serious business.

    I thought the joke was usually about how he doesn't get killed.

    I dunno, but the people in that cinema must've been dying to see that movie.
    I heard it was pretty good too, it blew them away.

    You couldn't have chosen a more unfortunate turn of phrase there could you?

    OT:
    Is it bad that I mentally added the caption "George W. Bush shows off his brand new cursive handwriting to his friends, who are suitably impressed" before noticing Star Wars bad guy?

    How about a 9/11 joke?


    too soon?
    Anyone else think Jaime Lannister only has the Kingslayer title because he was just too lazy to kill the king on heroic mode?
