None taken. I understand that everybody receives humor (especially written) differently. What doesn't land for someone will land for someone else. And for more edgy jokes, they can come off as more offensive/intentional than they intend to. I tried to spread it out a bit, but maybe went a little harder than I should've at some points, especially knowing how divisive a lot of this stuff still is.Please don't take offence, I honestly just thought some of the white jokes were actually intentional and you were hating on white people because I failed to see that you were actually making fun of people constantly criticising white people. At the end of the day I'm the idiot and I apologize.
Not to overshare, but I basically grew up in an Inglewood equivalent until I was teenager. Lots of ribbing, race jokes, your mom jokes, etc. The usual mid-90's/early-00's humor when stuff wasn't quite as polarizing as it is now. Kind of went with what I know as 'the white kid' in what many would consider a 'ghetto' area and transferred it into the story. Different time, different places, and different environments.
But don't call yourself an idiot. It is what it is, as I said above, it's not always going to land clearly for some. The written medium is kind of a bitch in that way. Again, I probably did go a bit overboard. Will try to scale it back.
