Difficult Brother-In-Law

Hi all. I have a brother in law who constantly says things to me that are inconsiderate. He thinks its funny, but meanwhile I take it to heart. I don't want to burden my sister with all of this, even though she knows that his comments bother me. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. 

What do you do when you love your sister and her kids, but you have to take a little bit of her husband, even though you know you will get hurt by his comments? I don't feel like it will change anytime soon. I don't want them to get into any arguments, so I try not to tell her. It's very confusing. I feel like I'm willingly subjecting myself to hurt and that is something I don't want to do. Any advice?
