Thing is inappropriate jokes are always pushing the boundaries of taste - like racist, sexist, sexual, death, religious etc... all sorts of those jokes are always tread a fine line. Have I laughed at all of those? Yes. I've even laughed at "cripple" jokes, and my cousin is brain damaged and is basically a rocking vegetable drooling in the corner. It pains me to say it, but it's true - and it's just a dose of being "human" that allows you to take a step back and realise how fortunate you are - and it' not a point and laugh in a mean way it's in a sort of I don't know a sort of jubilation but also cringe at the inappropriate wit.
I don't know how to phrase it - but as much as I find these jokes hurtful when I don't find them funny, I find enough funny that shouldn't be - so I let the bad ones slide else I should be a hypocrite. I am a sensitive person and would never actively make jokes like that to hurt people, but if I heard a joke that I thought was cruel but sadistically amusing even if only ever so mildly I'm afraid I'd credit the humour for it's evil wit.
