Recently there was a "roast" shown on Netflix, of Tom Brady, the football quarterback who is very much admired by football fans.
Tom Brady's ex-wife, Giselle Bundchen, was angry about some of the stuff that was said. She made a public statement on social media, that she was disappointed, etc.
I listened to several videos discussing the situation, and read comments -- one comment was made several times by different people, sprinkled through the rest of the comments, it said Giselle was mad because the statements were "offensive" and the Commenters insisted, "It's a roast! It's SUPPOSED to be offensive!"
After two of the Comments that said that, I typed an answer:
"No, it's not supposed to be offensive.
It's supposed to be funny."
(You dumb-ass.) But no - I did not add that.
But - I was thinkin' it.
When did people start getting "funny" mixed up with "offensive" - ?
To one of those Reply-Comments, I added, "Look up roasts with Don Rickles and Dean Martin."
[Hello??!! Do we have to teach these people Everything??]
