What is the debate, here? That the WWE should be "better than that?" That's all they do. Do we really have to go over the countless tasteless storylines they've done over the years? I just think it's odd that someone who'd be offended by Eugene would watch through dog murder, necrophilia, and the Al Wilson storyline in general. How many times has feces ben used in an angle? But this is where you draw the line? On a character that's been done dozens of time in wrestling...George Steel, Norman The Lunatic...Eugene is not the first "special" wrestler.

It's all toilet humor. And it's not going to get more mature or sensitive all of a sudden.
You know, it's not hard to figure out that there are shades of offense.

People were a little bothered by Bu-Bu-Bu-Bubba(if at all). People were a lot bothered by HHH fucking a corpse. Maybe there's a reason? Oh yeah, a stutter's not as horrendous as necrophillia.

Shoving your head in the sand and saying "Toilet humour" doesn't cut it. Not all "vulgarities" are the same. You want proof? Make a dick or fart joke. Then mmake a "How many niggers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?" Joke.

Hmmm...both are vulgar, but they will get you different responses. I wonder why...
