I just posted on Ann's thread reposting it ,and that threads been 'pulled' too .

'Thread does not exist !' :-|

Didn't you read my post, Miss Scozz - people have different senses of humour. Doesn't mean someone is lacking humour if they don't get what someone else finds hilarious.

I can't stand Monty Python but my OH and youngest son finds it hilarious - I giggle over stuff that my OH stares blankly at.

Being "politically correct" takes the fun away

:-D

Honestly, don't people have a sense of humour???

As you say Mr Daff, it's in the dictionary!!!!

....afterthought - it's also used in genealogy.

Perhaps next time you should use the term 'base born' :-D

I didn't see the original but read AnnC's post. I didn't find it funny but then I didn't find it offensive but I'm not lacking in humour nor do I need to 'get a life' and 'get out more'. It just didn't appeal to my sense of humour. Surely we all differ as to what we find funny or offensive.

I agree with Mr Daff - why not just send a PM saying you find the post or certain words offensive. Much more pleasant way to deal with it.

Couldn't believe it, MrD. Poster must have really wanted to be offended to read such a long joke. What reviewer saw offensive I have no idea.

If it WAS that word, not only is that word in dictionary, it was used by St Paul in the New Testament. And I have recently used it in a church talk and absolutely nobody took offence.

Could be racist, I suppose. But so is me walking round going 30-3, 30-3, 30-3 all last week too.

Well done AnnC for reposting it. About time we ignored this Friday night reporter :-| :-|

I've reposted it for you Mr Daff - with a few ******

Good luck Mr Daff

;-)

Seems I got RR'd for using a dictionary term for someone of 'indeterminate parentage'. Hey Ho - i'll remember in future not to use any literate terminology in any posts. or if necessary use a fistful of ****'s instead.

However, the term was used in a, hmm, somewhat derogatory way ( :-D) so I'll accept that.

Next time, RR'r, kindly contact me first and discuss your concern - I may well have come to the same conclusion and therefore 'adjusted' the wording. That is, if you're brave enough.....
