In reply to Ryan Hellyer.

I oppose the PC-police who say we can't have fun on our own time, on our own dime, with sarcasm, teasing, Polish-jokes, Nazi-references, and a new no-no each week. "Get lost; get a life", is my reply to them.

Sarcasm etc is just chimps picking through each other's fur for succulent lice. It's 'core' socialization so ancient, I don't doubt it's hard-coded.

For you & me & our bottle of wine or bag of shake to uproariously amuse ourselves and any others who think they can stand the heat in the kitchen ... good on us & all our partners in the supposed crime.

But drag it into the workplace? Make it part of the fixed decor? We know better ... we know how that movie turns out.

This is one of the key aspects to a well-developed "professional" demeanor. Knowing when to leave the jug of vino and the wad of weed at home, in our personal lives.
