Consider these thoughts:

1) At some point in your life, you may have had to laugh along with some horribly bigoted-against-your-foo joke. For example, when I chuckle at a sexist joke, because it's easier than calling the person on it. (See also "let's not unnecessarily ruffle feathers at work especially in this economy the end".)

2) Sometimes, when you call someone on making a bigoted joke, they say "I know [people that this joke targets], and they laughed at this joke, so I don't know what your problem is!".

3) So sometimes, you may be the person that jackass is using as their excuse for making bigoted jokes.

rosefox: "Krod Mandoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire", a workplace comedy set in an ancient realm, follows the reluctant hero of the title (Sean Maguire of Meet the Spartans), who is the last great hope in the struggle against the evil ruler, Chancellor Dongalor (Matt Lucas of "Little Britain"). To help fight the good fight, Krod has assembled a band of loyal but ineffective freedom fighters who together must overcome a myriad of evil obstacles in their quest to save the world, including name-calling, hired assassins and a bisexual Cyclops (or biclops).
