Really? People find humor in hurting the most vulnerable?

You find it funny to taunt a alcoholic with beer or Suggest a knife to a person with suicidal thoughts too?

Real edgy

Did you know 90% of human communication is rote? Meaning someone just regurgitates a phrase or idea they heard somewhere else in response to a stimulus.

You know, like a parrot. No actual thought, understanding, or meaning, just a learned response hoping for a reward.

Useful examples of this in animals convey warnings or other kinds of information.

Sometimes it's just meaningless noise though.
