Fixed that for ya Bishthebish wrote:calm down Tango - there is no "outrage war" and nobody has alleged that a "crime" has been "committed"TANGODANCER wrote:The English have been the butt (and still are) of jokes for donkey's years. Does the average Englishman wear a pin-stripe suit, carry a rolled umbrella and a copy of the Times to work? Do we all drink tea with little fingers raised and say " say old chap" to everything? A lot of non-English thougt so for long enough. I can't remember any outrage wars starting about it.
you're right - there is a place for the Bernard Mannings of this world - and you are welcome to that brand of humour - really you are - go ahead and lap it up.
Muslims are terrorists... Kerrymen are thick - ha-fecking-ha
yes - stereoptyping exists - but that doesn't make that list of jokes funny - witless, tired, lazy, contrived drivel...
but - nobody is stopping you chuckling away in your little corner - carry on - there's no challenge to your humour rights here.

Pretty standard reply Bish. Over exageration as usual. It's lovely day and I'm calm as can be, not, as you always seem to indicate smashing keyboards with gritted teeth. Is replying or disagreeing forbidden now then? Chill man, like me.thebish wrote:

you wrote it on the last page Tango - "In time, these things will die with evolvement bu they're still part of our lives right now. No real crime commited."TANGODANCER wrote:Really?

http://tinyurl.com/3y6oa7pSee, you always finish with a mild -and slightly insulting rebuke of some sort. You just can't help it, always being right and proper. I don't need joke sites, I could write books on em. Anyway, the footy's started so, erm..tootle pip for now.
Nobody had said a crime had been committed - real or otherwise - yet for some reason you sought to reassure us that no crime had been committed.
Anyway - i offered you summat that it seems certain you'd enjoy - and you throw it back in my face! generosity eh?
I'll look forward to the Tango big book of racial stereotype jokes when it comes out - maybe buy some copies for my children and grandchildren...
(Suarez - great instinctive strike!) I'm off to get the slugs, snails and dirt out of the scrunched up 8ft pool and fill it up with water.... (then wait for it to slime over with pond-weed)

Behave. Show me one person that actually 'believes' any of that.TANGODANCER wrote:There are still plenty folk about who think all Spaniards are bullfighters or flamenco dancers and all Mexicans sleep on corners under sombreros just waiting for "the man with no name" to arrive. All Scotsmen wear kilts and There are still Leprechauns sitting under bushes in Ireland and all Aussies sit on wooden porches drinking XXXX or Fosters lager waiting for Skippy to bound up tell them somebody's stuck down a mine-shaft.
May the bridges I burn light your way

Well, if you read how silly it is, you may realise it was tongue in cheek and should have had a wink. . Just like the bowler hated English it was all about jokes and stereotyping.Bruce Rioja wrote:Behave.

and all Americans are big fat McDonalds munching racists high fiving each other, who think we all sit around reading newspapers in our bowler hats sipping tea out of china cups.Bruce Rioja wrote:Behave.

Its just good natured stereotyping, everyone knows its not true deep down but we still say it to each other to take the piss. it would be a pretty dull place to live if we didnt take the piss out of each other all the time. if anyone is ignorant enough to get offended by it then good!

Yeah... the laughing PC policeman... i think you've posted it before, and, you know what, even though i know it, i still laugh at the punchline... both of them in fact, he tops the first rather nicely with the second...Lord Kangana wrote:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um9yLFYG ... re=channel

Ah, it was me that got it out of context then, which is strange given the context in which it was posted.TANGODANCER wrote:Well, if you read how silly it is, you may realise it was tongue in cheek and should have had a wink. .

Oh absolutely. It was just Tango's line "There are still people that think that........ ".General Mannerheim wrote:Its just good natured stereotyping, everyone knows its not true deep down but we still say it to each other to take the piss.
Seemed to me that he'd blurred the edges.
