I'm sorry I missed your reply Geoff. I'll ignore the comedy part as I've covered that elsewhere (I was referring to the app being a joke not the event.) I'm sure people do consider their opinions. My argument is that they are basing their considerations on only part of the story. If you have ever

osses it, I don't think a joke app about cleavage does. Either we ban anything that could be considered offensive (boring) or we accept that sometimes people will cross that line (fine be me) and stop over-reacting when they do. Dylan Sale On 11 September 2013 15:12, Jiří Baum wrote: &

me however you want, but I don't think that name calling helps. If you could explain why you think that making jokes about minorities (which again, women are not) in good humour is in bad taste, I will be willing to listen with an open mind, but perhaps this is not the place for that. Dyl

Seeing as the article says they got a pretty good laugh I'd say it was a success as a pitch. This was obviously intended as a comedy stunt and like all comedy it is chosen for a specific audience. These guys had probably taken a barometer reading and guessed it would go over well as a joke. It was
