Tim, my apologies. I did not realize you were part of the "dish it out, but can't take it" group.
Parkhomenko and Youngman have a provocative and largely comical style, but the material is deadly serious. I respond to them, and I responded to you, in kind, although I'm not as scatological in settings like this. In my regular life? Oh, yeah. Ask my daughter. I'm where she gets it from.

Fred, you can’t come at me sideways then claim I’m one of the “dish it/can’t take it” group. Your comment was mean-spirited toward mine; if you were going for funny, you missed badly and just came off like an ass.
Go ahead and take the ‘L’ on this one, bud. We’re on the same team, here.
Tim, your interpretation that I "[came] at [you] sideways" reflects your personal emotional experience of my comment. I cannot take responsibility for your sensitivity, whencever it came. I do, however, apologize for having unintentionally communicated with you in a way that led you to feel uncomfortable, picked on, attacked, or even that you didn't experience my comment as having been as "in on the joke" as you intended yours to have been.
As I said, I apologize. If this interaction feels to you like one in which you have somehow W, and I have somehow L, or in which someone must W, and someone else must L, then I do take the L. It was entirely clear to me that you and I, all of TBS' readers, are on the same team.
Hey, Dr. Jonas, do you charge extra for the condescending tone or does everyone get it free of charge? Jesus, man…I made a joke, you tried joking back and, due to your apparent inability to type a response without sounding like an insufferable jerk, failed. I asked you to keep your condescension to yourself AND YOU CANNOT DO IT.
Fred, silence is ALWAYS an option and, though I wish you’d chosen it earlier today, I can only encourage you to walk that path now. No pithy comebacks, no dime-store psychology, just kindly shut the fuck up.
Take care, man…I hope nothing but the best for you and your family. ✌🏼
"We're all on the same team" doesn't seem to match with "shut the fuck up." But I assume it makes a kind of sense to you.
The condescension, if that's what it felt like to you, was entirely free. Especially for my nearest and dearest, like you.
PS: I'm glad, in a way, that you seem to have recognized that I was "joking back," although that awareness did not allow you to control or contain venom.
