I appreciated the humor.


Sometimes humor is designed to pick on people or make someone feel bad.  I don’t appreciate that type of humor.


Other times humor is designed to lighten a tense conversation in a way that helps everyone relax and realize that maybe they could discuss a serious topic more productively if everyone wasn’t so tense about it.  I find this type of humor to be pleasant and helpful.


I felt Marc’s comment was the second.  YMMV.  :)
