Simply because you don't understand what your joking about. it could bring out insecurities. or just bad memory's.you never no how much your words could really hurt someone soo why would you tale the chance? is it to look cool? to hide your own problems? or just because your insensitive and dont care? it doesn't matter how much people say "sticks an stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me" because truly just saying something involving some sort of drug or alcohol, could deeply deeply hurt someone. and you wouldn't even know.So next time you speak.... remember "WORDS CAN HURT PEOPLE."
