Me personally? I've become much less tolerant of sexist humor. Back in the day, cracking a joke at women's expense was pretty common when I was a teen. As I've matured and become aware to the horrific extent of toxicity and bigotry pervading all tiers of our individualistic society, I've come to see how exclusionarly and objectifying that sort of 'humor' really is, and I regret it deeply.

I take my coffee black, like my men. A line from the movie Airplane. My wife made me quit saying it, that servers today don't know the movie, and so it's just creepy instead of funny now. :(

Thanks, you two... I needed that. :)

I will say 'I like my coffee like I like my women, black and strong'. My wife is a tiny white girl so I tend to get funny looks when I say it.

My go-to is that I take my coffee like my soul, dark and bitter.

I would probably not say it if it was true though 😊
