Do you think this joke about AMY WINEHOUSE is cruel or funny?

Question

On yahoo's home page last week, it said that at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, a joke about AW. The joke? “I can’t believe Amy Winehouse self-harms. She’s so irritating she must be able to find someone to do it for her.”

What do you think about this ? (cruel/ funn?)

Answer 1

Answer 2

but then again, i hate Amy Winehouse,

people who like her probably think differently...

Answer 3

funny being a celeb comes with that price but she can afford it $

Answer 4

I think it's halarious, but the self-harming isn't funny at all. The joke is, though!!

Answer 5

sry but its not funny..............

Answer 6

I think you should stop picking on successful people and get a life!!!!!!

Also come down stairs, and stop putting these stupid questions up!

Answer 7

jokes aren't funny unless they are a little tasteless and offensive (the key word is a "little"), I don't think I've ever heard a joke that doesn't offend someone (at least)....here's a joke that doesn't offend anyone....."A person went into a place.....the end." (not so funny huh?)

Answer 8

I don't find it funny.  It is a bit cruel though.

Answer 18

Answer 19

I think it's funny. Not enough to laugh out loud to, but I can see the humour. And who cares if it's cruel? She's only brought it upon herself hasn't she?

Answer 20

I think it's quite funny.  After all it's only a joke.

Answer 21

the joke is funny but self harming is not.

Answer 22

she is a waste of space, someone with so much talent, but chooses to use drugs, when she is supposed to be setting an example, and unlike a lot of people she has the money to get help.

Answer 23

It may be cruel to some people, but i personally think that there is nothing wrong with it. so out of cruel or funny, i would choose funny.

Answer 24

hilarious. amy winehouse is such an idiot

Answer 25

Self-harming isn't really a laughing matter tbh.

I didn't laugh.

Answer 26

it's about as funny as a fatman being lurred with a cheeseburger on a string into a brick wall

Answer 27

no.. ok shes going through..  a hard time and she looks a mess and everything but i do hope she gets better.. and her amazing voice is fading..

Answer 28

I have to say that politically, it's cruel. Realistically, it's f-ing hilarious!

Answer 29

i think its cruel,

if amy wasn't so ill and near death it wouldn't be so bad,

but she is a very unhappy and ill person, she needs to get better.

and people making fun of her doesn't give her anymore self esteem.

so yeah

Answer 30

Funny but true.

Answer 31

Funny.
