I'll give Dizzy some credit, his answer was better than this one (although I could make one better than his). I'm assuming, probably incorrectly, that English is your second language, and that you're actually seeking a serious response.

This "quiz" is quite easy for native english speakers. The (obvious) answers are: (1) teacher (2) receptionist (3) actor (4) waiter and (5) student.

He won't learn anything if some gullible idiot is going to do his homework for him.

@blatham,

Thanks.

Although credit to Layman, he's really outdone himself coming up with those answers. It can't have been easy for him.

If you work in or for you're a puppet.

@dalehileman,

I don't think rape is something you should joke about.

@izzythepush,

Alas Iz, my apologies once more to the overly sensitive and the TAT

@dalehileman,

That's not an apology, it's a sneering insult. If someone close to you had been a victim of sexual violence you wouldn't be so blasé. Mocking victims isn't having a sense of humour it's bullying. I wouldn't stoop so low as to mock your condition.

@izzythepush,

I agree with you - you do not joke about rapist especially not when the person is working in a hotel. Just the imagination that a rapist has a key to every room.

@saab,

Thanks. Dale gets very passive aggressive when challenged. He's not doing himself any favours.

@dalehileman,

Some things you don't joke about. It's not like we're short of things you can joke about. If I did stuff about rape in my stand up routine I'd be quite rightly jeered off.

Basically anything that mocks the weak, victims and minorities is off limits. The rich and powerful have always been fair game, and the best person to joke about is yourself.

@izzythepush,

I only joke about things that are inherently funny, like cripples, gays, retards, mexicans, women, and, of course, cheese-eaters, ya know?
