DB11 Posted 20 October 2011 Posted 20 October 2011 'Monging out' I always thought it just meant being lazy and chilling
Houdini Logic Posted 20 October 2011 Posted 20 October 2011 These are probably the same ****** idiots who now have children singing 'baa baa charcoal sheep' in school
Houdini Logic Posted 20 October 2011 Posted 20 October 2011 Ricky Gervais is about as funny as downs syndrome Really? I didn't think he was particularly funny IMO
accessory Posted 20 October 2011 Posted 20 October 2011 These are probably the same ****** idiots who now have children singing 'baa baa charcoal sheep' in school Really? Show me an example where that EVER happened. Or was it just a myth that was printed in the Daily Mail?
NorthernFox Posted 20 October 2011 Posted 20 October 2011 That there is always much ado about fook all. Political correctness, over the top H&S, ambulance chasers are killing the country. FFS, take a joke, accidents happen, stop chasing the free pounds... Grr
Father Ted Posted 20 October 2011 Posted 20 October 2011 This is all politically correctness, do gooders crap. Absolutely nothing wrong with saying disabled in the context that people use it nowadays.

DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 21 October 2011 Posted 21 October 2011 Couldn't give a shit. If people want to get offended over something that wasn't intended to be offensive then that's their problem. That comment makes you a prize "disabled"
Guest MattP Posted 21 October 2011 Posted 21 October 2011 Didn't we do all this a couple of months ago? Anyhow, at early 40s I'm old enough to remember it being used as an offensive term for mongoloid or Downs Syndrome people. But as people say, once offensive words can change their meaning. So with that in mind I am wanting to reclaim some words previously seen as offensive and tell you all don't worry, you can use them now, even if you're a nigger, a packi, a wog or a queer. Yeah I used it and got slaughtered, bizzarly by some of the same people in here defending it. I'm not Ricky Gervais though. I couldnt give a shit anyway, I use what words I want now anyway, no one tells me what I can and cant say anymore, they can throw me in jail if they have to. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/4782856.stm http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/600470.stm Now don't you EVER think of using caps on me again you gay disabled Owned.

flowwolf Posted 21 October 2011 Posted 21 October 2011 If Ricky Gervais is so clever why does he not invent his own derogatory term? perhaps a " Gervy " Would suffice . Following on from the Ba Ba black sheep controversy I can fully understand why people want it banned with it's obvious inference and allusion to the Black sheep being a West Indian drug dealer and asking if he has any wool ( drugs ) and the answer being yes sir yes sir three bags full . One for the Masser and one for the Dame ( Ho) and one for the little boy who lives down the lane. Yes even involving little boys with crack. It's high time that sort of stereo typing was outlawed. :angry:
Rincewind Posted 21 October 2011 Posted 21 October 2011 It depends in what manner the words are used. There was a programme the other week about language with Stephen Fry. He was talking to a black comedian (he has a letter as a middle name forget it) and Stephen Fry was asking him about how he felt about cetain words like 'nigger' as he (Fry) felt it hard to even say the word and said 'the 'N' word instead. The comedian said he was called it plenty of times as a child and never liked it. They are both gay and Fry was saying that if they made a joke about it it seemed more acceptable. Anyway you need to see the programme to get a better understanding of my rambling.
