I'm so glad our misery can give y'all a giggle. Personally I felt your joke was offensive, and decidedly unfunny. But as long as you were happy with it, I suppose that's all that matters.

In times of stress, such as catastrophies, wars and other famine, people tend to resort to humor to deal with these things. If you have a grandfather, or any other relative that's been in a war, ask them on how they dealt with the everyday carnage.
You might be suprised.
