My dictionary has:
1. The obtaining of sexual gratification or the tendency to derive sexual gratification from inflicting pain or emotional abuse on others.
2. The obtaining of pleasure, or the tendency to obtain pleasure, from cruelty.
3. Extreme cruelty.

Anybody who enjoys watching horror movies and bad jokes are either sadistic or have a sadistic sense of humor. Also knwn or phrased as dark humor. It was cruel to take something as serious as a man dressed up like Superman and Christian Bale being arrested for assult charges, and joke about how superheroes are being thrown in jail and doing un ethical things, hence, sadistic sense of humor. Or should I re-phrase it to dark sense of humor? Or perhaps you all would be happier with poor or uncivilized sense of humor?

Well, I threw in a poop joke and no one b*tched, so maybe we're good with the "poor or uncivilized humor" category.

A guy dressed up as Superman does something bad, a guy who portrayed Batman did something bad, and the guy who played Iron Man was in drug rehab a while back. You know what this means?

The Joker was right...



... and he's laughing at us.

I think proper grammar makes you look a little less retarded... but that's just my opinion.

Perhaps I'm either so blase or morally corrupted, but I don't really find anything "serious" in the aforementioned news. That's why I can't find anything especially "wrong" or even "sadistic" in laughing at them.

For me, laughing at either handicapped or terminally ill people would be "sadistic". Or those starving to death in Africa. But at a Hollywood celebrity having family issues? Or at some kind of a moron dressed up like Superman? It's just ridiculous on it's own, not "serious".

... oh. So that was a prime example of high-class and civilized sense of humor? Sounds like we don't need Monty Python anymore, then.

Or perhaps no one just paid attention to that.

Again, what does my signature have to do with this topic when this could have been brought up in another thread, or PM'd to me directly? Don't you think that would have been a wiser move?

I don't find anything serious about the jokes of people impersonating superheroes being thrown in jail serious either. I was just commenting on someone's distaste for Raph Girl to make the connections, which is going to happen, and I took it as that person who thought she didn't have a grasp on reality for the jokes just didn't appreciate or comprehend dark or uncivilized humor, or couldn't smirk at a poor tasted joke.

As for your second phrase, both the jokes of impersonated superheroes gone bad and people who laugh at the handicapped, terminally ill or the unfortunate are sadistic, but I actually have enough morals to be disgusted by the latter type of jokes.

What was a prime example of civilized humor? You lost me here.
