I’ve made a joke about someone killing themselves on both lemmy and Reddit.

How was that funny, if I may ask?

[–] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

On Reddit, i was making a reference to a Sewerslvt song (Mr. Kill Myself) and spun it towards the person i was replying to. Of course, Reddit did not want to appreciate nuance.

On Lemmy, I can't exactly remember what happened, but i replied to the comment with: "Haha, ky*". You can argue about whether any of those instances were funny or not.

Thanks for the reply, matey.
So, assuming I'm getting all that correctly, then you seem like you're prone to spinning-up some dark fun which suits *you*, but not necessarily the object of the joke, necessarily.

TBH, I've struggled with that myself, many-a-time. Argh...

I'm prone to getting myself into very controversial situations yes. Whether it be by way of jokes or opinions. Hopefully it gets solved with age.

Haha, it won't of course,
but it's a nice gesture. :D

Thanks for the honest reply!
