Pictures to make you smile

[vicarinatutugal]

I too hate political correctness.I mean we do live in a democracy.Be thankful we do not live under a communist regime like China.Freedom of speech is just that.Ofcourse it doesn`t mean we should insult people.But most people are sensible and would have to be pretty up their own arses to be offended by Karin`s pics.

I agree. To clarify, I got them in an email they made me smile, thought I would put them here, I am thankfull I did not put the one of jesus up now.

ah well, different strokes for different folks, I tend to feel there is an obsession with PCness that at times I think can just get silly. You can barely make a comment these days without there being an outraged gasp, I find that interesting. Regarding my views well when I feel like airing them I do, it amused me (or irritated me, not sure yet) that you pounced with the oh is it one rule for the mods blah blah... ah well.

Well people have been banned and/or reprimanded for posting pictures of a similar ouvre, so it's not too hard to work out why I said it. And most of the time the "outraged gasps" are warranted...

Yes well, you've made your simplistic, narrow-minded views on all manner of issues well-known across the site, but thanks for clarifying again, just in case I hadn't got the idea the previous 50 times. You never seem to have much of a problem with insulting people, so it's a little hypocritical to say that "we" shouldn't do it. The Islamic school photo cartoon is borderline racism, but apparently it's OK to take the piss out of religion these days - as long as it involves Muslims, cause hey, they're all terrorists anyway . If I was a foreigner in Britain I'd be pretty insulted by the cliffs of Dover cartoon too, and I'd have every right to be. But of course, you must see that as the pinnacle of wit, so I'm probably fighting a lost cause.

Coiff.

Hmmm, what do you mean you can barely make a comment, if the commentis offensive i think that people should be able to tell you so.

Lord,don`t you take yourself seriously.Any joke will offend someone somewhere if they are sensitive.Jokes are always at someone elses expense.Thats what makes them funny.The majority of jokes are at the expenses of dimwitted people,should all people with mental health problems be offended?Fat jokes,gay jokes,Irish jokes,vicar jokes etc the list goes on.If you banned everything that offended someone somewhere all the comediens on the planet would go out of business for a start.
If you don`t like something you ignore it.There`s plenty of stuff on TV that I`m offended by -I just turn off,I don`t start writing to my MP.Swearing offends me-should everyone stop because I`m offended?

As for religious jokes ever watched Father Ted?

I think you need to stop getting a bug up your backside and concentrate on polishing your halo.

I too hate political correctness.

i hate people who try to hide their ignorant fuck-wittedness by responding to those who challenge their prejudices with meaningless phrases like "politically correct" instead of actually engaging in a discussion.

I mean we do live in a democracy.

we live in a liberal/capitalist democracy. that's an important qualification.

Be thankful we do not live under a communist regime like China.

china is not "a communist regime"

Freedom of speech is just that

...and thus entitles people to express their dissent from your uninformed opinions about the poor, about non-whites and about anyone else you unthinkingly despise without reason.

Ofcourse it doesn`t mean we should insult people.

then stop doing it.

We did have a wonderful trip...and very timely after our Nans attack...really lifted all our spirits.

She is still in hospital and recovering slowly. In the meantime another old lady was attacked locally...this time at knife-point....and a man has been arrested. There is no evidence yet to prove he attacked Nan too but the police are hopeful they will get a DNA match from her jacket...fingers crossed!

Thanks for asking how she is doing HIM...much appreciated

Karin, eewwwwwwwwwww

Very best wishes to your grandmother.

LOL...I am sure there is some kind of hidden agenda!!

Speaking of things that make you smile...

On Saturday night she was watching that Ant & Dec thingy and they mentioned the word TESTICLES! She asked what they were and I told her they were the dangly bits a man has in his pants!..eeek! Then she said "what job do they do then Mum?" I said..."Oh you'll learn all about the birds and the bees in Year Six poppet!" When my husband came home from work she yelled..."Mum says in Year Six I'm going to learn all about birds, bees and TESTICLES!!!"

You could of said Ant and Dec are a pair of testicles, in a manner of speaking.

Ooooh!...I didn't think of that...and you are right of course...but their popularity amongst the 8 and unders should NEVER be underestimated...to us Mums they represent manna from heaven after a long and noisy Saturday afternoon!

Anyway...I thought you were busy kissing Dave up a tree!
