No inlaws? Could it get any better? It can, up to 60% off at Boden + an extra 10% off

I know MN is full of inlaw problems, but I just don't find that amusing

I think it’s funny.
But I did raise an eyebrow at Ryanairs ‘Jab and go’ advert last night.

The thing is what can you say without upsetting someone?
If I talk about my children is that upsetting for someone who cannot have children? If I talk about my lovely DH what about people in abusive relationships? If I mention I have just bought some new jeans what about people who have lost their jobs and are skint?
We can’t just talk about the weather even in the U.K.

It's called "a joke"

StillCoughingandLaughing · 28/12/2020 11:16

There’s nothing funny about Boden.

StillCoughingandLaughing · 28/12/2020 11:16

Although my phone tried to autocorrect that to ‘Biden’, which IS quite funny.

In law jokes are as old as the hills. But I wouldn't have expected it from Boden.

Pipandmum · 28/12/2020 11:17

But I am now checking out the sale...

Ach. It’s not original but it’s mildly funny.

If Boden’s customer base don’t like they’ll say so I guess.
