This troper is a member of anime-fansclub in college. Once, he was abused by his girlfriend (which result in a messy break up and nasty shoulder injury), his friend's reaction? Made us watch ''ZeroNoTsukaima'' on the clubroom...JUST SO THEY COULD PULL A COMPARISON AND LAUGH AT ME. This Troper is NOT amused...

Wow. That was a dick move...

I still say he deserves worse! To the OP, I HOPE YOU GET A GIRLFRIEND THAT'S EVEN MORE ABUSIVE! AbuseIsOkayWhenItIsFemaleOnMale for a reason...

Because it was SO evil of him to be abused and he deserves SO much worse. Everyone knows women should be allowed to do everything short of murder as long as the target is male. Man, I sincerely hope you aren't a woman.

It's payback for historical misogyny. PAYBACK! PAYBACK! AND PAYBACK!

This troper's sister, for the longest time, enjoyed making jokes about fetuses and eating fetuses. She also does a very inaccurate impersonation of him that even his parents hate.

I don't know how to stop her impression, but the fetus thing? Is she familiar with ''SilentHill3''? If not, I think you should try to cue up the scene before the final boss of that game on YouTube and show it to her...

This troper had a teacher that went to college in Fort Laramie around the time the infamous murder happened. Soon after it, a fraternity made a homecoming parade float making fun of it. This was the reaction of a lot of people, so much so that the fraternity has been forever banned from being part of the college.

A friend of this troper made fun of diabetes, on a mutual friend's Facebook page. My dad is diabetic. I was not amused. Worse, the mutual friend is also diabetic. Fifteen minutes later, the mutual friend and I arrived on the commenter's doorstep to deliver a massive "Dude, not funny" rant.

This troper would also chew out Christopher Hastings for making fun of diabetics, provided I could actually talk to the man face-to-face. ...It's a bit of a sore spot.

As a type 1 diabetic, I don't particularly mind my disease being made fun of near as much as the disease itself. If someone worked towards a cure while making fun of my disease, I would consider that preferable to telling no jokes about it but also doing nothing about it.

Every time anyone makes a joke about "sweet enough to give you diabetes" I cringe since my mother and grandmother are and were Type 1.5 diabetics, and diabetes ''does not work that way''. Not to mention the number of people who think it's clever to suggest that my mom might not have gotten it if she lost some weight (which, for the record, is bullshit since that's not how Type 1.5 works, and my mom and grandmother are and were both very slender) especially since both have had complications that have been life-threatening, though at this point the technology is good enough that my mother now has very few problems, my grandmother was not so lucky. Try watching someone you love go into hypoglycemic shock and then tell me if diabetes is funny.

Protip: Never ever try to cheer up someone who is legitimately worried about the effects of a natural disaster by telling a joke. Just... don't.

This troper finds it absolutely unacceptable to joke about rape and other sexual offense and absolutely ''despises'' anyone who uses the subject matter as a source of humor. That includes those on message boards, etc. who use such terms as "sex offender" for their tagline and jokes about such issues.

Same here. I find it kind of weird how I'm okay with death jokes and even dead baby jokes, but as soon as sexual offense or even sexism is involved, that goes past the level I can tolerate.

Thirded. This (female) troper particularly hates it when sexism is viewed as okay against men. Sensitive around all types of sexism and rape but extra sensitive when it's against men... that doesn't count as sexism... I think.

Averted. Despite being sexually harassed at a young age, this troper is actually completely fine with comedy pertaining to touchy subjects.

One time, while I was walking home with my crush (we happen to take the same route home), we found that there was a wooden fence that had fallen over for some reason. After I made an admittedly lame joke about how it may have been brought down by an angry person with a sledgehammer, she proceeded to joke that maybe a tsunami hit it. (Yes, this was a few days after the whole series of incidents in Japan.) After raising my voice at her never to joke about such things again (I hardly ever raise my voice, especially at girls, so you can tell how shocked I was), she somewhat laughed and said "If you insist." Not only that, but after we have a brief conversation about the disaster, she proceeded to talk about how she wishes the whole series of disasters happened to North Korea instead, so that Kim Jong Il would be killed. I have never heard such things from her before, so I guess it also added to my shock. Then again, it may be a sign that she likes me, as I also sometimes say weird things around her.

Ok, I'm taking her. Seriously, she out-awesomed me on sadistic ideas. Nobody has ever done that. Where does she live? Because I'm taking her.

She lives in Canada, so it may be a bit too far from you. Also, I think the reason she had those ideas is because she hung around me too much, but then again, I would never joke about what happened in Japan. I would, however, freely joke about dead babies. I guess I would say you have a rival on sadistic ideas.

Why are the happenings in Japan worse than dead babies? You really need to explain that.

This troper has this reaction to when people make fun of the disabled or his own handwriting, which is a mess ''because'' of a disability, to the point that it has became a DudeNotFunny topic for a number of people I know. I would often share playful banter with people I know, including this one girl, who most jokes I had were directed at her taste in Music (She actually thought Friday was a good song) and movies (she likes Twilight and TheLastAirbender) but would refrain from being too mean as she would often complain that i'm 'evil' if I make a particularly dark joke. Then she made a very mean comment about my handwriting. Every Joke I make now directed at her is considerably meaner than I usually make them, and I now laugh when someone who also makes playful banter but isn't afraid to offend brings up her race into a Joke. An odd thing about them is that, for some reason, Taylor Swift is a DudeNotFunny for her. I once refferenced one of the WMG entries for the Country singer and she pretty much flipped out that I was making fun of her, despite all I was saying is she looks like an Elf from Lord of The Rings.

Why is this person friends with you if you laugh at racist jokes directed toward them? I can understand the rest, but that's kind of a dick move.

For a long time through elementary and middle school, one of my friends was very overweight, and very sensitive about it. I knew not to mention it to him, but other people still made fun of him for his weight. When he entered the ninth grade, he began dieting and working out in order to lose weight. About a year later, when he had improved his physical appearance significantly, another kid who my friend thought was his friend posted a picture of him from middle school on Facebook, when he was at his largest, and tagged him and a large number of people, including some girls he liked. To add insult to injury, this kid tagged things on the picture as well like "Left boob" and "Right boob" and "double chin". It really made my friend upset. I didn't think it was funny, and said so, but not everyone felt the same way, unfortunately. My friend has gotten better, though, and he's lost even more weight and built some muscle.

Averted with this troper. I have a brother with autism, and I find the song "Special Ed" by Stephen Lynch to be hilarious. I'm a little surprised when people do get offended when I mention it, especially the ones who don't know people with mental disabilities.

Also averted with this troper, because I actually have autism (although in the form of a mild case of Asperger's syndrome). My sense of humor is very dark and I laugh at a lot of special ed jokes.

Also averted for the MOST part with this troper (who also has mild Asperger's). I'm not objecting to the use of the joke "ass burgers" on occasion but do it frequently and that's a different matter. I won't joke about other people's conditions as such, but may joke lightly about an odd characteristic or two.

This troper will not joke about child abuse, full stop. Do so and you may find yourself booted out of Xbox Live Games/parties, or in the case of a person who said he would hurt my nephew, may be on the receiving end of a really hard kick to where the sun don't shine.

Because physical violence is the perfect retort to cheap and tasteless jokes.

This troper's brother once did something incredibly stupid. At the dinner table, when we were talking about dates on various cultures' calenders, and at one point, we talked about what the Muslims do. He blurted out, "I wouldn't date a muslim, people would think I'm a terrorist!" You can sort of guess what happened after that.

On one hand, averted with this tropette: I've had multiple relatives and friends who were mentally disabled, but no one in my family minds improper use of the word "retarded". (I avoid it in public, though.) On the ''other'' hand, jokes about domestic abuse, sexual abuse, or child abuse are '''not OK''', and God help you if you combine them in any form.

Same tropette. Just learned that any situation in cartoons/comics about someone digging through someone else's things without permission makes my ''blood boil'', even if they don't find anything. Probably has to do with older brothers and all those really awful short stories I wrote and all those shows I had merchandise for and AUGH MY CARTOONS AUGH. I now have a phobia of showing people cartoons or stories I make. Or revealing what shows I like, even.

New law of the internet: You insult MisterRogers, or talk about him in ''any'' way other than with the highest respect, you '''die.''' This is true of all of cyberspace.

A while back I managed to get a hold of a used copy of Pokemon Ruby version. When I started it up to see if I could transfer anything useful for my Pearl game, the person who used it previously didn't get very far, but that's not the insulting part. When I saw that the name on the menu screen was Hitler, I was like "WHAT?!" before finding out the Torchic (a fire type) was named "Burn Jews". Yeah, I immediately erased ''that'' file, and I like to think I put that poor Torchic out of its misery.

When this tropette, Horror Girl Lucy, was about six, my dad taught me how to shoot. There was one time I made a joke about guns, I forget what it was I said, and he grabbed my collar, pulled me up close to his face, and said, "DON'T. JOKE. ABOUT. GUNS." It's ironic, really. About five years ago, he was shot to death.

In my old school, this troper was tormented by a sociopathic boy who, among other things, MADE JOKES ABOUT HER FRIEND WHO DIED OF BRAIN CANCER. Oh, and it got even worse...
