Haha, Havoc tries to justify himself being an utter cunt and completely misses the point.
Again.

Basically, this. I may not be able to give much. I certainly don't have the means to pick up and head over there, but the LEAST I can do is show a little humility and not act like complete and utter trash.
:
Making a joke about the situation there is not disrespectful to the people who died or who are homeless.

Yes, it IS! Okay, look:
:
Being told that your god hates you and therefor killed everyone you love, THAT's offending.

First of all, that is offensive, yeah. I'm not sure you're the best person to be deciding what we should be offended by, being that you're also saying things that are intentionally offensive.
How are the jokes about suffering Haitians not offensive, but some loony Christnut's ravings are? You're saying that you could walk right up to a Haitian man or woman who lost their family, their home, their job, and you would tell them some of your rip-roaring funny Havoc's Haitian Earthquake jokes, and that they'd be fine with it? Would you go up to a native Haitian right now and make these jokes?
Millions of people have died. Dude, MILLIONS OF PEOPLE HAVE DIED!
HOW IS THAT FUNNY?
Havoc, the fact of the matter is that no matter how you excuse it, it's still you sitting there and making jokes about a catastrophic event. People's lives have been shattered, families have been destroyed, children are homeless and you're making jokes.
No, the real kicker is, you wonder why it's wrong.
:
You people are way to serious about things.

Uh-oh! EVRYWUN'S BEIN TOO PC! Iz evrywun beein too PC, Havoc? Man, that PC, it's taking over, am i rite?
Our attitudes towards this are normal. Yes, Havoc, as abnormal as this forum may be, it's NATURAL TO FEEL SYMPATHY FOR PEOPLE IN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS. Does sympathy do the Haitians a lick of good? No sir. But like I said, it's better than MAKING FUN OF THEIR SITUATION.
:
Learn to enjoy life, for all you know your city is next to be leveled by an earthquake.

I do enjoy my life. I'm in the SAME GODDAMN POSITION AS YOU, living in a stable environment. I see my place in the world amidst other people and unlike you, I don't need to come up with half-witted justifications for making fun of the less fortunate because I just don't do it. Stop being such a selfish twit.
And honestly, since when the fuck does "I can't do anything meaningful about it" mean "I should make jokes at their expense," and
why the fuck is this mindset so pervasive in so many people?
