This is going to be "too soon" until all of the millennials are dead.
Everyone outside the US are over it, especially considering the war to follow
Yeah I can see that.
It's been 22.3 years since 9/11 though.
Don't make me feel old. That's not nice! But yeah I know. It's just still such a gut punch.
George Carlin was first.
Joan Rivers got there just after.
We've been laughing at jokes about 911 for ages. Being edgy isn't new, even boomers do it
I remember Gilbert Gottfried at a Friar's Club roast. Can't remember what the actual joke was, but I remember he lost the whole audience, and then won them back with a spontaneous telling of "The Aristocrats"
Kudos for Carlin, who made fun of government propaganda. Maybe not so much for Joan Rivers for making fun of FDNY widows.
(I'm not a boomer, though. Or a millennial. Or really that edgy anymore, if I ever was....)
Oh I know. And there's some lessening of the emotions, I'm not enraged by the jokes this time. Just...sad.
Millennials in NY were cracking dark jokes about 9/11 in high school. “Too soon” never existed for some of us.
That's coping humor. There's no stopping that.
Exactly. I was in class when we saw the crash on TV, we're allowed to joke about it.
I feel attacked! 9/11 this mf!
Maybe, but we're already dead inside.
