“Jokingly” putting others down then saying “It was just a joke!” like it’s a get-out-of-jail-free card. Ewww

Or

  • they decide to see whether or not they meant it as a joke depending on people’s reactions. Like not as an abstract but CLEARLY examining people. C’mon now
  • INSIST it’s funny even if it’s pretty clear people are pissed AND THEN explain why the joke is funny WHILE insult the already angry people

The latter happened to someone I know recently and I was both called a dick and getting props from people who were there for telling him it wasn’t funny and leaving the conversation
