Mocking people for what they do is fine.

let me try and explain this OP: basically there is a concept about "punching up or down." essentially what this means is that, if someone is taller than you and you have to aim your fist upwards to punch them, you are "punching up" which is ok. conversely, if the person is shorter and you have to aim downwards, you are "punching down" which is not ok. there are some workarounds to this. if someone is shorter than you, but you manage to catch them in a position where they are above you (they are standing above you on a staircase, you trick them into standing on top of a box, etc.), you are now in a "punching up" situation and you are free to act accordingly. theoretically you can also lower yourself by squatting down to punch them, but many consider this a moral grey area so I cannot recommend that technique. that's pretty much the basics, feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

Aim to be the dumbest motherfucker in the room and you can't really punch down in that scenario

With whatever you have to hand? Would a rolled up newspaper be a fair weapon to use against a freshly baked baguette, say?

Using a cucumber would be cheating, surely

Some goon was buying feet or legs maybe and doing science crap to them. Rad daddio? Ergo there must be a foot store.

However, if you look in the donate thread there are people who are equating laughing at the lawsuit with "mocking the mentally ill" and it seems like a real stretch to me

I think if it's playful, it's okay. If they're open to it and or have a chance to respond, light jokes can be a fun game. It's play fighting. A ton of people but but men especially take that poo poo wayyyyyy too far and it becomes just straight up violence with actual consequences.

If you're mocking someone that doesn't want to be mocked, yeah I guess they're not really willing to play with you and maybe they're unfriendly but you're still being a dick.

It's not "playfighting", it's an existential battle for pride, honor and the american way!

There was a GHOST here.
It's gone now.
When the sentiment is funny not because of who said it, it's not punching down. If the sentiment is funny because of who said it, it's gotta punch up.

"Many users do not like or want me posting." is funny regardless of who is saying it.

"Keep my wife's name out of your loving mouth." is funny because of who said it. It isn't funny on its own.

Did I ever. Remember it as if it were yesterday. Soon as I woke, I went to empty my bowels - my favorite part of the day. Defecatin' to the sunrise - downright glorious.
I try not to mock people for things they are, and only comment on what they do or say. In that vein, I'm slowly getting rid of descriptors like "crazy" and "stupid" - replacing them with things like "absurd" and "foolish", which are the more accurate words to use anyway.

That's a high quality avatar right there.
The less comfortable I am with my audience, the further down I’ll draw the line.

That is to say I mock different people with my best friends than I would with someone who sits across from me at work.
