I know my dad has a twisted sense of humor but today he really crossed a line. He made a joke about my mom/his wife getting raped by a stranger. I don't know why he thinks such an awful and tragic concept is funny but it honestly hurt really bad.

I know he's my dad and he didn't mean any harm from it. He's always had a very on edge and politically incorrect sense of humor, but that joke actually made me feel physically ill to hear. I've been a little depressed ever since, I can't believe he would treat one of the most horrific circumstances I could possibly imagine (my mom getting kidnapped by a strange man and sexually assaulted repeatedly) like it's some sort of joke.

You would think that even for someone like dad who loves pushing the envelope with humor that if there is ever a line for things you shouldn't say in comedy, it's making a joke out of someone you love (whether it be one of your friends, family, neighbors, etc.) getting killed, tortured, or sexually assaulted. That is about as low as you can go.
