You ~~should~~ duck after that tasteless and unfunny comment.

(Here is a little something you must have missed in Rhetoric 101: When saying something deliberately outrageous, it needs to be redeemed by some kernel of truth, some wicked piercing of conventional wisdom, something expecially funny and forbidden...it needs to be redeemed by SOMETHING. The fact that something is obnoxious is not, in itself, a reason to say it.)
