With the proviso that the more offensive an image, the harder it'll be to make it funny.
My gut feeling is that Down's jokes (and Auschwitz jokes) are likely to be almost impossible to make sufficiently funny.

Yes. You have to put effort into making something offensive hilarious. 'Arbeit Macht Funny' as they say.

It would appear that being a regular has something to do with it.

i think Enzyme's just doing the whole questioning the /board's morals thing...
no doubt lines will be drawn between 9/11, hillsborough, holocaust and the vietnamese guy getting shot in the face etc.
I made my comment above because it's be bindunned to death. I work for a lot of people with down's and it's a great source of schadenfreude and a couple of them are complete cunts.

Yep. This.
I happen not to find Down's jokes all that amusing. I'd rather they weren't made, to be honest. But there've been things posted before that are significantly more off-colour that are ignored at worst, and sometimes attract W/Y/H responses.

agreed
it seems to be because down's jokes seem to consist of "haha look a mong"
offensiveness can be good though. I was INTERNETMAD because it was boring, not particularly offensive.

Not as far as I know.
I just thought I'd throw in the most pathetically ineffectual insult I could. I'm more than happy to donate it for public use, though.
