We all know that the GD factoids are meant to be jokes, but one of them tonight went way over the line. Think it was Q14 and it wasn't even remotely funny. As a matter of fact it was downright insulting. So much so I can't even remember what it was right this second. Never been a fan of the jokes in this game, and after this and the Obama fiasco within the last year, perhaps it's time to get rid of the insipid jokes and make the factoids actually factual like the other games. Regardless, tonight's "factoid" should never see the light of day again. BO |

I thought the "factoid" after the Wounded Knee question was in really poor taste. This, of course, was the site of the Wounded Knee Massacre in 1890, where at least 150 Lakota, many of them women and children, and most of them unarmed, were killed by US cavalry in what has to be one of America's most shameful moments. Some of the jokes on Glory Daze are so bad I almost like them. But BT definitely crossed the line with the Wounded Knee comment. They really need to be much more careful! -- RWM |

I also find some of these mildly to very annoying, but do not recall a particularly offensive one last evening. I don't know what # 14 was, but the one after the Wounded Knee question was something about it being better after arthroscopic surgery - lame (groan) but I did not see it as offensive in the context of the question. |
