Really a Useful Note is not the correct option for this case. That's for tropes that are actually about a real life subject. Also, this trope was made In universe only for a reason: audience reaction examples would become pointless.

The main body of the article describes an audience reaction/YMMV item, but the examples list is limited to in-universe examples.
The in-universe examples (of the formula, "a character makes a tasteless joke and is called out on it by other characters") seem to be common enough for this to be a real trope unto itself, with an article describing it properly as a normal trope, entirely separate from the phenomenon of the audience getting offended about what a work plays for laughs.
