    For me, a joke's a joke. Whether it's a racist joke, a joke about retards, dead baby jokes...they can be funny, but it depends on the joke. I have no sense of what's "appropriate", only a sense of what makes me laugh.

    I find them really funny, but I feel guilty laughing at them sometimes. I never tell them myself either, but if it is a funny joke I will laugh, but it makes me feel like a horrible human being.

    If the joke's rich, then it's good - unless that person telling it had a malicious intention to hurt someone with mental difficulties.

    My cousin, 23, has the mental capacity of a child. He laughs at those jokes too, though. He may be childish, but even he knows "jokes are jokes as long as you didn't mean any harm".

    Personally, I think people who make up these jokes to make fun of retards (it's a term for Down Syndrome patients), are pathetic. It's as bad as bullying the weaker.

    I don't like jokes about retards. That's nothing to laugh about. However, a joke is a joke, and although it's terrible to laugh at someone, especially if they have a serious mental problem, such as being retarded, sometimes the jokes are just funny. I don't tell those kinds of jokes though, and I always try not to laugh when they are told.

    I don't consider anyone "retarded" except for those who have normal mental abilities and don't use them.

    A lot of people fail pretty hard when they make retard jokes. I have to say I think South Park has done a pretty good job at tackling it for the most part.

  • I think they're really funny. I already put up with enough PC bullshit all the time, I sure as hell won't do it with jokes too.

    It depends- if the joke is putting down the mentally disabled, then no, but if the joke happens to just use the word, then it's fine with me. However, I don't think the second part is the case, so I'm not sure in all...

    The only thing funny is imagining Michael Westen, Sam Axe, and Fi pwning someone who mistreats someone who's mentally challenged.

    Retard jokes just don't work very well. For example:

    "So, this retard walked into bar. He sat at one of the bar stools, motioned for the bartender to come over, and said... UUUUURRRRR!"

    "How many retards does it take to screw in a light bulb? A whole fucking lot."

    "How do you know Abraham was a retard? Because he came from UUUUURRRRR!"

    See what I mean?

      I don't know how many retards it takes, but it takes 3 Polacks. 1 to hold the bulb and two to turn the ladder.

How many retards does it take? HAHAHAHAAAA!!!! .... How many retards does it take to screw in a light bulb. 7. 1 to take the photographic memory. 2 to draw the design of how to do it, 3 to craft the ladder, 4 the dumbass that unscrews the lightbulb and puts another one in not realizing the pain of it til afterwards because they didnt turn off he switch. lol. 5 the perfector that realines the bulb correctly. 6 the supervisor that goes deeerr yaaah!!! and 7, the one that says, hey shouldn't we turn off he light bulb before we start the project, not even realizing they finished.

      u really suck at them. ur not creative at all. jokes have a punch line, they dont all just end in dumb noises. such as, a black and mexican are in a car. WHose driving? Your answer would be VRROOOM VROOM VROOOM!!!.... it just doesnt work that way. Btw, it was the cop. lol!!! U gotta b creative, not lame. and lame technically means out of style or not being able to use a limb, not retard. but later they added lame-brain as a definition because of all the slang ppl used off of being lame, such as ur so lame, or in bak in day words, u suk ur like a guy w/o a working arm... so yah ur lame!

    If a joke is funny, I laugh at it, subject matter doesn't matter to me.

    Upon thinking about it, I find I do call people retarded a lot.

    Lots of times I'll say retread (as in, re-tread a tire) instead of retard.

    Once I saw this big goofy oaf of a guy call his brother or friend, whoever it was, a 'stoopit retart'. So I say that sometimes too, I found it pretty funny.
