FWIW, the new avatar should help with that too.

Glad to be of service. Really, this comes from the good and gentle part of my being. Namaste and all that.

Now, I'd better get moving, so Gwinky will date me.

I thought I was following around the dog.

Easy mistake, I guess, as the similarities are striking

I used to work some with a more senior associate who would make such jokes. After the third or fourth time, starting to feel complicit, I told her that I thought the joke was tasteless and offensive. She stammered a little bit, told me that she was from New York City, where people have lower standards I guess, and from then on avoided me as much as possible. Which was pretty much an excellent outcome.
did she have big tits?

Have you ever known someone who repeatedly makes jokes about another person's physical disabilities (or race, or whatever) to you even though you find those jokes to be in poor taste? If so, what do you do about it? Do you repeatedly tell that person how tasteless the jokes are or do you just turn a deaf ear? At what point do you become complicit by allowing the jokes?

I had a boss who would tell racist and homophobic jokes at client lunches. What do you do in situations like that?

Just curious.
If it's a superior, I usually go with, "I wonder what you're saying about me when I'm not around." If it isn't a superior I say, "You sound like a real fucking asshole."
