To Say You Are Joking To Get Away With Meanness Is A Social-Lie
Using so-called "Humour" to cover up a Cruel heart, is in a civilized Society, Cowardice. Cowardice is, in some ways, a lacking in social manners, among other things......Humour can be used as a vehicle for Cruelty, if used incorrectly. Humour is a tool.

I must agree! I hate that! I actually makes me want to say something insulting and then say i was joking like that would make a difference.

Of course using humor to "get away" with meanness is a social-lie.

But it's a thin line. I get mean when I'm playing with mean people. In person, it's obvious that I'm poking fun at being mean. Someone from a distance can think I'm nuts.

Even worse when typing entries as we do here. I try not to do it too much in this format but it's difficult because it is my style in person.

So...I find myself having to make up for it. Being honest, I say I'm not serious or joking (don't use the word joking much). But it's not to get away with being mean. It's more to get away with being stupid.

I agree, people who are,verbally-abusive generally-speaking,excessively prideful, emotional-terrorists and confidence-cannibals,who sometimes may laugh at other people who are better than they are, very insecure, from a verbally-abusive background, and probably co-dependent, disgustingly maladjusted with hatred of Good-they are cruel hearted, cowardly, lack social manners and more.
To attack someone and use humour as a vice for doing so is unforgivable.
HHHm, whats worse? An ignorant person who blurts their faults before thinking to the distress of others. Or a cutting attack on that one person who shows remorse and wants forgiveness.
Leave it to you.

And the entire debate you have posted regarding it.

 Oh, you came back for a second sting, did you, Jimbo?

Well, given the Simian-nature of your countenance, it is not surprising: my doubting the veracity of = asking "Y" about your chromosome-hood:Manhood.

Step outside, Jimbo, while I teach you something you skipped kindergarten and in so doing, failed to learn about respect.
Shall we?

Ladies and Children first: you go first ;-)
