A joke's not a good joke if it doesn't make people a little uncomfortable. I learned that in psychology.
You've made your point -- you're uncomfortable with the joke. I'm sorry that that's the case. No one else seems to be, though, and you already said you don't take issue with the body of the article. Why is this being beaten into the ground? If you're looking for an apology for what I wrote, it ain't gonna happen. I've been known to make poor jokes in the past, but this isn't one of them.
