I understand how they can get away with jokes about stuff like lemon party and tubgirl, since those were all multilayered jokes that seemed innocent on the surface. But this is just a straight up rape joke about a real-life sexist publication.

Jenna's lines fit into this.

Do you have any in mind in particular?

I tried to find the exact quote, but anything with mickey rourke, "do you want old men behind closed doors telling you what to do" are the two that come to mind

Back then we didn't kneejerk so freakin' hard. This is funny because is goes out of bounds to absurdity.

I look forward to a time when we can laugh at the absurdly crazy rapey stuff on comedy shows instead of political debates.
