Being offended by that type of humor is certainly one thing, but I can't figure out why Adria seemed so upset by it when she publicly made the very same type of joke on Twitter with a friend of hers (https://twitter.com/adriarichards/status/312265091791847425 https://twitter.com/adriarichards/status/312265091791847425).
