no ranting?

Teethkissing · 06/11/2012 13:19

its not up to you, what offends people
people dont get offended by choice-it is a reaction
deal with it as it happens
no one is stopping you doing/saying any thing
you want free reign to offend people? Confused

this thread is tedious

Thank you for your startling and interesting and most-valued contribution, teeth-thing.

I hadn't realised it was tedious. I am so sorry that you were so bored you read it and found yourself even more bored.

I know - DON'T READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow, who knew life could be that simple

I thought that it was pretty obvious it was a joke as no one has 100% British blood. Full stop.

Be careful though. You'll get the 'nothing wrong with gollys lot joining in.

Tedious thread on MN alert. Grin Deal with it Hully. Wink

EdsRedeemingQualities · 06/11/2012 13:24

It's being deleted anyway now.

Sparklingbrook · 06/11/2012 13:24

Was it more interesting than the meat/headscarf checkout thread yesterday?

Hullygully · 06/11/2012 13:25

It's being deleted because they are so bored with the po-faced self-righteous irony-failure emails they get and it's easier to kill it.

That's how evil always triumphs sadly.

lol at nothing wrong with gollies lot. Oh yes 'my gran has a gollywog and she really likes the asian family on Eastenders so isn't a racialist'

ouryve · 06/11/2012 13:26

Yawn.

KeemaNaanAndCurryOn · 06/11/2012 13:26

So basically, if you think its a funny joke then anyone who criticises it is a PO wanker. What if you don't think its funny? Are people who laugh insensitive wankers?

I get PO (meaning pissed off under these circumstances) about a few things on here. You aint my mind. You can't tell me what to find funny and what not to find funny.

Also, I reckon that had the camp husband thread been started by someone who wasn't "known" they would have got their asses kicked.

Scheherezade · 06/11/2012 13:26

This reminds me of a story my DP tells. When he was at uni, in a tutorial they were joking about getting eaten by wild savages. The lecturer was laughing, but then said, come on we'd best move on before someone gets offended (joking). DP and friends replied, oh come on, WHO is going to get upset about cannibalism?

And a small voice pipes up, actually, my grandad was eaten by cannibals in the amazon! There was less than 10 people in the room.

Moral of the story, everything will offend someone, somewhere.

BupcakesAndCunting · 06/11/2012 13:26

My tits are so big that your tiny girl punch wasn't even felt, Pinot.

GetOrfAKAMrsUsainBolt · 06/11/2012 13:27

lol at evil triumphing via emails to MNHQ Grin

I agree with you hully re the pofacedness of fuckers but the OP of that thread is a bit arsewipey at times imo.
