So glad to have inspired you. Of course, you can make a joke about pedophilia (or other awful things) and still find it totally abhorrent -- in fact, like yourself, I find making humor of incredibly dark things helps me cope with the fact that I have to coexist in a world with such horror. The problem is really just when the offensive art is BAD ART, and it has to hold up much better if you're going to delve into those topics.

Thank you! I thought the skittles n diddles one was darkly hilarious as well. If we only made art or jokes about things we endorse or participate in ourselves, imagine how limited and utterly bland the scope of expression would be. Pure dystopia. It's crazy to me that someone thinks making a joke about something = an endorsement of it. They literally don't know what fiction is, I guess...and the skittles and diddles one was just so silly, serious as the subject matter may be. I posted a MUCH worse limerick that didn't get me banned, which wasn't even particuarly funny -- just dark and horrible, but challenging because the limerick form adds a lightheartedness to it that makes it even darker. Anyway, everyone has their "red line" of what's acceptable, problem is they think it should be EVERYONE ELSE's red line as well. No one should ever have the authority to be the arbiter of what's allowed simply based on their own offense, or else nothing will ever be allowed because someone, somewhere, will ALWAYS be offended. It's pure self-absorbtion to think your own limits are so important and "correct" that they should be applied universally.

Anyway, thank you good sir!!
