Does this joke offend you?

[Anonymous]

(Keep in mind this is a joke and not an actual belief)

I use to have a big beard but any time the beard got to a certain length people started to shout pedophile at me. Why do pedophiles always have beards and glasses? What is it about that look... that children find so sexy?

I asked this question just to have an idea of how many snowflakes are on here.

Yes

No

It’s a Frankie Boyle joke.

his way of humour is to make the most offensive thing he can manage fit in to a ‘joke’.

You could likely pick any joke of his (using the word loosely) and it would offend pretty much anyone to a lesser or greater degree.

you can remove the beard line and insert, old men in raincoats or priests or scout leaders, or church goer etc.

Hell, I wear glasses and have a beard. When I let the beard go for awhile people and kids think I'm Santa.

[Anonymous]

Made me laugh more than it should've, but I don't find it offensive.

[Anonymous]

not all pedo's have beards and glasses lol trust me

[Asker]

Yes I know... again it is a joke. It isn’t supposed to be taken seriously.

[Opinion Owner]

I know :)

[Birdlegs]

The joke was a bit wordy it could definitely be funnier if it was cut down a bit and maybe make the punchline more shocking

[Soremain]

No, it's a good joke. Dark humor is like water, not everyone get it.

[sawno]

Doesn't offend me, but i also don't recognize the steriotype enough to find it funny.

[Soremain]

The joke is not in the supposed stereotype, it's in the punch line.

[Anonymous]

There are people who grows beard as hobby I think it's offensive who do that whole heartedly

[Asker]

Again it is a joke.

[Opinion Owner]

Even if you say it's a joke after when you say it to people, the damage done is done there's no changing it. They might feel reluctant to oppose you after you say it's a joke but what's done is done rught

[Asker]

I don’t care. I don’t want people who get offended by JOKES in my life.

[Opinion Owner]

Haha 😂 good one, you can also make your jokes less offensive. It's all just opinions here

[Asker]

youtu. be/hHlQ-oJJaZ4

[Asker]

Tell that to this great man.

[Soremain]

LOL dude.. That's not even the offensive part or what the joke is about. The potentially offensive part and the joke is when he says "I don't know why children find that so sexy", as if pedophile victims was attracted to their perpetrators and wanted to get molested. That's what you should be offended about if anything and not that he makes fun of bearded men looking like pedophiles. Everyone who understood the joke realized the beard and the glasses had nothing to do with the joke itself, and are not going to see bearded men with glasses as pedophiles lol. He could have used any physical features.

[Soremain]

So even more offensive than the joke itself, is to get offended on behalf of the bearded men instead of the children.

[Soremain]

In fact your original comment would've been a good follow-up joke for the original joke, and that's how I first interpreted it, but sadly you seemed to be serious :/

Let me tell you a joke.

Whats the difference between me and cancer?

[Ninani]

Has a slight Anthony Jeselnik feel to it.

[Asker]

This joke was told by Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle.

[Ninani]

Huh, a completely different delivery than I expected.

[Asker]

What kind of delivery did you expect?

[Ninani]

Like Anthony Jeselnik, slow and considered.

[exitseven]

I didn't think it was that funny.

[Asker]

That isn’t what I asked.

[exitseven]

No it doesn't offent me.

[jshm2]

That was a joke told by Frankie Boyle, I think.

[GAGSucksBalls1]

probably offends trumptards and republicucks

[Asker]

Is this coming from the same group of people who get offended whenever you call a man a man? And whenever you don’t call someone by their preferred pronouns?

[GAGSucksBalls1]

Tell that to Elliot Page

[Cam45795]

November has the highest rate of pedophilia crimes

[OddBeMe]

More offended it that it wasn’t funny.

[BarryLiverstone]

I’m not offended

[joeldalton]

Ha, decent joke.
