Let us be frank, no one wants to be insulted. Anything close to that is tantamount to an argument and possibly an unpleasant encounter, possibly, in the form of a fight. They may seem funny to you but at your target audience, they receive a completely different reception. While some people may use insult jokes to make fun of others, a completely silly reason I believe, others may use insult jokes to rebuke others. For example, to somebody who is a nuisance because he or she just cannot keep quiet, you may say,’Just keep talking. One day you may say something intelligent.’ While expressing the former’s disgust due to the misbehaviour of the latter, the joke also reprimands the latter- and rightfully so. So, insult jokes may not be very bad after all but that depends, of course. As long as what you does not get onto someone else’s nerve then maybe, you can share it.
