'Wallah', valves, political correctness, and Richard's rant

[Marco]

How about 'Robinsons Jam' and their 'Golly Wog' ???

Hahaha... I forgot about that. Classic! Some people have a sense of humour bypass these days when it comes to that kind of stuff. If you can't laugh at getting the Mickey gently taken out of you then you're a sad case as far as I'm concerned.

I often take the piss out of Italians (or 'eye-ties') and Scots, and laugh at jokes about such, even though I was born in Scotland and have Italian parents. I also have some Pakistani friends, and believe me, nothing is funnier than listening to them taking the piss out of 'Pakis'. The comedy 'Goodness Gracious Me' was hilarious, too!

There's a massive difference between gently poking fun at a particular race, and racism. But because of this bloody stupid political correctness malarkey these days we all have to mind our 'Ps' and 'Qs'...

Erm.... I'm not entierly sure you just did that matey!

OK so the old rant thread was closed only for mods to open another one - bloody daft?

So lets try again.

And so it continues - the point of the arrow is always followed by the rest of it!

Shows the discussion continues elsewhere if not allowed here.

Richard,

You've got this all wrong. It is not disallowed here. I told you why your old rant thread was closed, and it had bugger all to do with 'political reasons', I can assure you!

If you would like me to move your above post into the Blank Canvas, therefore creating a new thread on the matter, I will do so, and you can discuss away until your heart's content!

But, I'm sorry, the old rant thread stays locked.

Marco.

I think sometimes Richard is a little hard of understanding.

I sometimes think you are a complete really nice chaps, so hopefully that makes us even.

[Steve Toy]

Now now Richard, temper tantrums that we can indulge out of charity on our part, to a point, serve no purpose.

As an intelligent chap that you are, I'm sure you can refrain from them.

We love you but anger management is an issue for you. It won't become an issue for us, so post away but don't make any of us want to laugh at you for the wrong reasons.
