Curse Words! Wizord and Ruby are cut off from the source of magic and trapped on Earth! Thankfully, Earth does have magic they can use! lovely, pathetic amounts of magic. Still, you steal what you can get!

Humor comes from absurdity by nature, it's unlikely to ever move "past" content that is offensive or vulgar. As Mel Brooks put it, "Tragedy is when I cut my finger, comedy is when you fall down an open sewer and die".

That quote is in the "2000-year-old-man" bit he used to do with Carl Reiner. If you can find a copy of it, it's a lot of fun to listen to.

Mel Brooks posted:In 1974, I produced the western parody "Blazing Saddles," in which the word "friend of the family" was used constantly. But I would never have thought of the idea of showing how a black was lynched. It's only funny when he escapes getting sent to the gallows.

The point isn't whether he would find it funny or not. The point is that humor can come from things you may not agree with in a serious manner. I'll laugh at somebody getting hit by a car even if I don't wish that on them. You can't help what you find funny, and there's lots of hosed up poo poo people find funny. It's fine for people not to find any given thing humorous. Humor is a very personal thing. But it's not going to stop other people from laughing (or not laughing), and the expectation that it would is, in itself, ironically laughable. But I agree, sexual assault is no laughing matter. Unless you're assaulting a clown. [EDIT] And aren't there multiple scenes that most people would consider sexual assault if not outright rape played for comedic effect in Mel Brooks movies?

Yeah, the Human Chess scene from History of the World Part 1 came to mind, as did a bunch of stuff (including the outright rape of the Sherrif by the old woman) from Robin Hood Men in Tights, but I had forgotten Young Frankenstein.Bruceski posted:A kid and a clown are walking through the woods at night. "Gosh, this sure is creepy" says the clown. "You think this is scary?" the kid replied, "I have to walk back out alone." An excellent twist to one of my favorite short jokes.

I always thought sonic's eyelids were blue. Also apparently the cover of this issue is what made Sega finally go "What the gently caress is archie comics doing with our franchise?"
