A joke is a joke, and in many ways an anti- establishment protest(?) probably the wrong word.

There are those that have been overly penalised due to jokes.....ask Rodney Marsh as s***e as the joke was.

But based on your own precepts, people will take offence against jokes or as they would see it jibes against those they "prefer" or deem offensive.

That includes plenty of the right wingers on here.....please note I did not use the "eye swivel" joke.


A joke is definitely a joke, no one should read too much into a couple of jokes.

If someone intends ill towards a group then it's rare that they just restrict themselves to humour.

My point is general with the clip speaking far better than me....In my particular case one main poster decided to label me as 'anti this and anti that'....Exactly in the vein that Bill Mahter observes in his video.

We need to push back the automons in today's culture and call them out for the thought policing that they push.


.....but you are.

I got carpeted once for making a quip on here about Kylie Minogue bringing out a cover song of Berlin's "Take My Breath Away" called "Take My Breasts Away" just after she had Breast surgery.

I was proud of that joke!

It should have won me Hol's funniest poster award.

Agreed. Not enough sterotype jokes around nowadays.

"An apartment of 3 floors lives 3 families, A White family, a Black family and a Racist family. At 2pm on a normal working day, a fire breaks out and burns the building to the ground, which family dies? The Racist family, Because with the others at 2pm the parents are out at work and the kids are at school"

"A fat racist and a skinny racist jump off a cliff. Who wins? Society"

"Why is a racist like a dog? Both mark their territory with s***"

"Have you heard the one about the racist who choked on Yogurt? He found out there was a foreign culture in it"

"How many racists does it take to change a light bulb? 100. 1 to change the bulb and 99 to deny that the last bulb ever burned out."

"How many racists does it take to change a light bulb? None, racists hate being enlightened"

Stewart Lee should be forced to watch that Bill Mather clip on repeat until he dies.......Which after watching his TV show is something he's regularly use to doing anyway.

Was only following your group caricatures over this weekend,old bean....I thought you said it was fine to do that...

I'm saying you have pre conceived ideas, not that you can't do anything.

I'm doubtful you are really anything significant in the legal profession as you appear so often so hard of thinking.


Edited by Stirlingsays (21 Jun 2015 5.34pm)


Better than being hard of logic


ps. that the best you can do? Like being assailed by a feather duster
