2. It was meant as a compliment and boost to Casey about her looks on her hardest day yet in the house.
Also - so what if people want to tell edgy jokes anyway?
What gives anyone the right to tell others what they can or cannot laugh at?
If you don't like it - so what?
There are loads of jokes/comedians/tv shows that i don't like. And so what?
Who am i to tell people what they can and cannot laugh at?
Loads of successful 'bad taste' comics out there - Ricky Gervais, Frankie Boyle, Jimmy Carr.
Do you really want to live in an ultra-censored world where people are only allowed to tell knock-knock jokes?
Even if jokes aren't funny to me - even if they are offensive to me - i still defend peoples rights to tell them!
