While normally making jokes after a person's death would be socially questionable, in this case Chuck Norris himself loved the Chuck Norris jokes. For me at least, a good sense of humor is maybe the most endearing personality trait. RIP

Fundamentally, I'd argue that very little should ever be unreasonable or out of bounds to make jokes about; what is important is that it's good humour.

And, as you say, in Chuck Norris' case, it's virtually obligatory.

On a personal level, I couldn't agree more. I do hope that culturally we get to that point at some time :-)

		I mean, jokes are made to uplift, intent in joking is important and punching up is preferable to punching down, this being said this didn't apply to chuck Norris that would have already got to the punchline without throwing a single fist.

Giving people reason to laugh while you are old and dying is a superpower. I wish i will have it, too.
