Saw this on a blog I visit regularly, and it got mixed reactions. Wondering what the lot of you think. Take the poll.

It's so-so.
Personally, I though it was pretty damn funny but then again we used to live by a family that had a hell of a lot of kids so it's a little more relevant to me.

My favorite thing about the pic is that I've seen one very similar on the guy's campaign billboards--he's a NW Arkansas politician.

Wow... just... wow.
But yeah, that's pretty funny.
Maybe not hysterical, but definately amusing. I dont find it offensive.

It got about a quarter of a smile.

Amusing, but I disagree with the sentiment. If someone wants to have that many kids they can -as long as they can support them.

What does the Vagina have to say about this all..? Was the Vagina pregnant against her will..? Every time..?
Pretty fucking poor taste, if you ask me.

First I gave it a look of "wtf" then I proceeded in reading clowns furthering my "wtf" look. I then re-read it and got a hint of a smile.

Offensive can be funny, but a joke can't rely on being offensive to be funny. You need comedic timing, and some depth to the situation. It's the difference between Family Guy's Micheal Moore fart scene, and Peter Sellers in Dr. Strangelove, calling the premier of the Soviet Union to tell him one of his generals went insane and ordered a nuclear attack.
This was kinda funny though. :p

It's amusing. Not outright "hysterical," but certainly amusing and not offensive.
Made me grin. I can see why you might find it offensive, but it's all a bit tongue in cheek, so I wouldn't have thought anyone would get too worked up about it.
I earnestly hope they only put on the matching suits and dresses for the picture...

In grammar, you spell it in the proper tense?
"Oh my God! Sally, your Vagina is showing!"
Heh?

I just noticed that.. :( :p
But, I am interested in knowing if it's "Vagina" or "vagina"..

I don't get it. What's a 'clown car'?

I like the ones in Counterstrike Source better.
Is funny, not hysterical but also quite weird. Also one of the kids in the front row looks a bit different from his siblings. Me thinks his Daddy ain't in the picture!
And whats with them all dressing the same?
And how is the mother not an elephant after having a million kids?
Why would you want that many kids?
Looks like an advertisement for the Catholic Church:eek:
Not really terribly funny, but I'd hardly consider it offensive.

I don't get it. What's a 'clown car'?It's a circus gag--tiny car comes out and what seems like a never-ending stream of clowns come pouring out of it.

You're kidding me!
When the hell would the poor woman have the time, let alone the energy to have an affair?!
It reminds me of the lead-up to the 'every sperm is sacred' song in Python's 'Meaning of Life'.
Y'know, the scene with the woman at the kitchen sink and a baby pops out, falls on the floor and she just grunts, "Get that for me, would you Deidre?".

given the limited range of answers, i chose offensive
it doesnt offend me but it is an ugly joke because its a personal attack on that couple and their children.

It is a joke at their expense, yes, but it is definately something they should have a sense of humor about. Not everyone has that many kids, and people make fun of things that are different. Which is fantastic, to a point. It brings people together.
