Am I a bad person for finding this funny?

[SonicKoala]

My friend showed me this picture today, and considering Black Ops was just released, it's conveniently relevant. Oh, and really funny - in my opinion, anyway.

Spoiler: You may be offended if you're one of those hyper-sensitive, politically-correct types. You have been warned.

Discussion value: So, is this funny, or is it totally not and I should be flagellated for thinking so? Also, feel free to mention other things which you've found funny in the past which you really shouldn't have.

Ummm... I suppose it could be kinda funny, but...
Who is Carl?
And is he only there because of his job and skin colour?

 

[LawlessSquirrel]

I don't personally find it funny, but I can see how some people might. It's not a terrible joke, but just not my humour.

Also, there's nothing offensive at all about the picture...unless for some reason someone's offended by the mention of black people, but I figure that's a rare case.

....DUDE! thats just friggen hilarious! X'D props man, props :'3

 

[Blackadder51]

Nice

Carl is a Cop in Die Hard.

 

[Stollos]

I chuckled, but I didn't lol.

Carl is a Cop in Die Hard.

Damn, ninja'd.

 

[Angerwing]

I love puns. They just make me grin.

 

[Pegghead]

NICE! Family Matters was pretty funny.

 

[fulano]

Shoot the glass!

 

[Brutal Peanut]

Meh, it's alright. No you aren't a bad person for finding it funny. =)

-All Hail Britannia Snip-

Carl is a Cop in Die Hard.

The one who gets a surprise visit from a flying corpse?
Yes... I can see now...
Thanks for that :3

Jesus Christ, am I that old now? It's Carl Winslow from Family Matters. He was a black cop on a sitcom in 90's. And no, it's not that funny, it's Family Guy humor. "Let's take someone from the past who has some nostalgia value, and put them in something current, it's hilarious!" You're not a bad person for laughing at it for being racist, you just have a bad sense of humor.

 

[Blind Sight]

Bahahahaha...why do clever play-on-words make you a bad person?

I miss Family Matters...or I miss the memory of it, I also liked Full House as a kid but I can't stand it now.

 

[Aurgelmir]

I think it was funny.

and personally I don't think its racist (if anyone should play that card)

 

[Sun Flash]

No it doesn't make you a bad person.

Personally, I love a good pun. Definitely worth a giggle, or at least a "heh".

 

[Funkysandwich]

I wouldn't call it racist, it's just a pun.

Not a terribly good one, but it made me chuckle.

 

[DJDarque]

It's chuckle worthy, but not hilarious. And no it does not make you a bad person. I've seen much much worse, like the Left 4 Dead 3 Haiti picture. That one makes anyone me a bad person.

 

[SonicKoala]

Well, nice to see that I'm not alone in finding this amusing. I suppose the fact that I recognized him from "Family Matters" also added to the humour...

you just have a bad sense of humor.

I figured as much.

I don't see anything funny about that. Perhaps you might elaborate on what makes it humorous for you?

A combination of nostalgia and what I thought was a clever play on words.

Oh, and something about Carl's expression. It's just...perfect.
