Del-Boy. Offensive…get a life.

Oh the felinity!

So you’re just full of shit then?

Its a turn of phrase that isn’t entirely unaccurate.

TBF I was just picking on you becuase you and the schoolchild seemed to be getting way OTT.

I had such high hopes for jollity at the outset.

*inconsolable grief*

Far too much talk of school kids on here. I guess this threads gone quiet because the local schools are turning out. You know who you are you flippin freaks!!!

Thank you and goodnight

Past your bed-time, enfht?

So, people who reckon 70s humour has dated pretty badly are child-molesters?

I really cannot be bothered to reverse-engineer that thought process.

🙂

No not at all big dummy, read the thread.

RB you’re scaring me now, have you and Gary the “M” got sommit going on?

YUK!!

(RB reads post, checks his telescope is still trained on local bus stop and reaches for the vasoline)

😮

Quite a lot of people regard it as mildly off colour.

Racist.

Rudeboy – racist joke or not?

I thought someone who has experienced racism might be able to give some insight.

The notion that only people of asian/afro carib/celtic/many other origins can experience racism, is complete nonsense. I’m blue eyed, fair haired and of anglo appearance and believe me, I’ve been called a white **** before now, for no good reason. So if a view from someone who has experienced racism is required, this could be gleaned from anyone.It would be racialy stereotypical to imagine that only people of non caucasian ethnicity could provide that experience.To say that all people of ethnic origin are automatically victims that need protection is extremely patronising and every bit as racially stereotypical as the usual overt racism that the thread is supposedly adressing.

(Pss, $10 bucks on Gary to win)

Everyone can point the finger: Blacks, gays, sex, whites, castes, creeds and even religion.

We can all be guilty and we have to know when to draw the line.

Thing is the society is split between educated and idiots-both make mistakes.

Maybe instead of rascism we should just use the word “prejudiced” as it targets a larger group rather than just ethnic or colour.

Crap joke though David Jason besides Pakistanis don’t use Mahatma dumbass.

Crap joke for sure, racist perhaps, but can we not forgive David Jason one crap and maybe a bit racist joke on the radio, afterall he is responsible for the funniest thing on the tv…

ever…

Del-boy falls through the bar…

…and Trigger pulls a face.

You mean “Gary the M”

😆 😆 😆 😆 😆

RB has been very quiet, maybe he’s still licking his wounds or….. 😕

what d’ya call a Scottish cloakroom attendant??

Angus McOatup

Wow, wonderfully offensive. End of debate, play on words, funny or not is up to the beholder but racist? No chance!

Thank you trailmonkey, for making exactly the point I was going to make. Many times the accusation of racism is made by white people on behalf of other races, when those other races probably wouldn’t even notice, let alone care. That is patronising and sanctimonious, and there are a number posting on this thread. Run along to the Life Shop, folks, I understand they have a sale on.

trailmonkey’s bang on the money about TandemJeremy I think..

He rushes in to give us the perfect moral standpoint but appears to be nothing but a worse racist in the process.

“The ethical dwarf, posturing on the moral high ground, presents a ludicrous spectacle”
That quote, used to describe Saint Tony, could just as easily apply to plenty of other people on here.

I have met and ridden with TandemJeremy and I wouldn’t imagine for one second that he would bear ill will to anyone, especially on account of the colour of their skin. I wouldn’t go anywhere near describing him as a racist. The comments were racially stereotypical though and I’m sure on reflection, TJ could see how they are being interpreted that way.

“The ethical dwarf, posturing on the moral high ground, presents a ludicrous spectacle”

LOL

Anyone that complains about, or worse, pretends to be offended by, a harmless wee joke like that really needs to get out more.

I don’t pretend to be offended by jokes about Scots. I even make plenty myself. Grow up people.

I don’t think I’ve ever met a pakistani cloakroom attendant. But maybe if I did perhaps they were simply working there to fund their time at college/uni/band/sport?.

Thank you trailmonkey ( whoever you are in real life) 🙂

I don’t mind at all it being pointed out that what I said was daft or stupid or did not mean to others what I intended it to mean as in this case. sloppy thinking and posting from me.
As I am of english descent with a poncy english accent and living in Scotland most of my life I too have been on the wrong end of predjudice.

I object strongly to being called a racist.
