My late SIL used to tell unfunny 'jokes' about ... various minorities mostly, I guess, and I just smiled bravely and started talking about something else. I did this a few times when she had told a 'joke' (not the same one every time!) about Cecil and Cedric. I never told her that my Dad's name had been Cecil and there was no question of his orientation. Why she did it, I don't know: nobody else in the family ever did.
