What's the difference between a dead pig at the side of the road & a dead person of no particular sexual preference, religeon, creed, estate agent, traffic warden etc.

   There's skidmarks in front of the pig! ::)

If it was worded in the following way would it be OK to laugh ?

"An asian came home one night and told his wife that he just saw 5 other asians giving a BNP member a kicking. The wife asked if he had jumped in to help and he told her that he didnt as he thought 5 of them was enough". :-/

I like the fact that he was hired as a consultant to find an actor who would play that part.  He did a demo of what that person should be able to do and they liked him so much they hired him instead!  He has since been a small time actor in several films  :y

I wonder if a single word of this article is true, strangely I took my daughter to the same playgroup and had no issue.I'm white and unfortunately also british, my wife is French but they weren't to know that. there were other "british" families there, these women seem to be the only ones who were excluded.

Ok. Let's take a monent to think here before getting all offended & being uppity Ednas. HOW many times on previous posts have i said i'm not racist? I'd be quite open about it if i was i can assure you. HOW many times have i said i despise bullying in any form? Two members have tried to explain where the humour was intended but Broocie & Turk cannot or will not see it for what it was...no i thought 5 was enough. It's a play on words for crying out loud. I could've used 5 apples vs 1 orange but did'nt want to offend a grocer. ::)
   If i actually saw 5 against one in any form i'd dive in & fight the minorities corner, probably getting a kicking in the process but that's me. Would either of you? No time for phone calls, it'll all be over by then. If yes then good on you. If no regardless of why then SHUT UP & don't sit in judgement of me. My morals & bottle are worth 10 of your PC/legal standards.

  No PM's please, either ignore me or answer for all to see, oh & i won't post anything like this again. It was close to the mark but meant in context. Guy.

Guy, you are wrong, as far as I read it.  I quoted Bluey, who's post had been edited by Jimbob.

We have met often enough for you to know my real life politics/sexual persuasion without running off at the mouth/keyboard and assuming. 

Its an often misused quote but true, non the less - assumption is the mother of all foul ups...

I enjoy realtime, new, humour within certain personal parameters.  I dislike reading regurgitated dross on here that is better suited to sickipedia and has been circulated goodness knows how many times on e-mails and PM's and similar.

I actually liked the way that you restructured an old, often told, tired joke, into something contemporary so as not to offend the masses.

Really....  :'(

...  and your point, bigstuff?    :y

Only two of you cared enough to protest ot state it was tiresome. I know that my phone & emails are full of such. A few thought it funny, most ignored so were'nt bothered either way, that leaves two!...Just two. ::)


Sorry to say but, you have lost me.

Only you & Turk seemed offended at my silly jokes, nobody else seemed to be bothered & took them as i intended if that's clearer. Anyway it has been a long day, will be again tomorrow...nearly the weekend!!
   I love you too much to fall out with you over such trivialities so am happy to call it a misunderstanding if you are & won't post the like again.

Regards to you & Liz, Guy. :y

The 'not funny' issue is nothing to do with whether it was racist or non-racist. I fail to see the funny side as it was about.....oh never mind.
Anyway, have a look at this link, some may find it hilarious.   http://uk.news.yahoo.com/5/20110118/tuk-vicious-gang-attack-caught-on-camera-45dbed5.html

i would reckon quite a lot of people would find the joke offensive, but few can be arsed to argue why its offensive - if you cant see it, i'm not going to educate you  :(

Turk is absolutely spot on.


I was keeping my big nose out, but assuming that because only 2 people voiced disgust it somehow validates the "joke" is far from true  :o

I hadn't read the joke I posted up anywhere else (which for the sake of clarity was not violent or of an extreme racist/sexist nature) but if it's an old one and the source is automatically not acceptable then so be it. 

This is not my messageboard, I didn't set it up, I don't spend hours of my spare time running it and if people post here then they should accept the rules, which I crossed purely out of ignorance. Fair enough, I hold my hands up on that and will do my best to be more aware of the guidelines in future.

I've done it myself.  I posted a link with graphic scenes of the aftermath of an Israeli rocket attack and didn't add 'NWS in the topic heading.
Oh man, did I cop it !  ::)
