That's a hit and miss there. Sometimes a humorous bunch makes a mundane thing giggle worthy, sometimes a joke is taken too serious and you get accused of being manipulative.
So, YMMV.
- jaystraw 3y agoi see what you did there. and smiled :-)
- orwin 3y ago'joking' is always a bit manipulative anyway (I bet asperger people understand that better than me, I've heard that it's how therapists teach them white lies). I guess the issue is when the joke isn't that funny and perceived as too manipulative, and anybody's threshold is different on both those.
- bayindirh 3y agoI mean, I hate jokes belittling people or throwing them curveballs and hitting their self esteem. As a result, I never make these kinds of jokes. The jokes I labeled manipulative are about something else and built upon double meanings of words, in the context of the subject being discussed.
