I lean towards B too, but I wonder if the coworkers' reactions could somehow influence the housemates' responses. It's tricky!

I'm really torn between A and B. I feel like giving attention to inoffensive jokes could help, but what if it just makes the offensive ones worse?

I remember a similar question where we discussed how attention can reinforce behavior. Maybe D is also a possibility since it involves inoffensive jokes.
