my tolerance for bullshit has got less and less as the years have gone bye.
quite ironic that.
I used to presume your posts were just trolling rather than the actual opinions of a man in the 21st century, but am starting to think otherwise!

Woodsey loves a row
Its a funny old thing, I was never like this when I was younger, but my tolerance for bullshit has got less and less as the years have gone bye. Combine that with a strong opinion and a big gob and there you have it!
I sail pretty close to the wind at work sometimes too, but my boss appreciates it mostly because he needs to know what the real situation is, rather that listening to a bunch of nodding dogs who are scared to stick their neck on the line.
The man who could call a spade a spade should be compelled to use one. It is the only thing he is fit for.
I'm all for freedom of expression and, regardless of my own political or religious views, I think I'm capable of seeing things from the other side, however strongly I disagree.
If your argument is a broad 'society isn't what it used to be', part of me thinks...thank God for that! Every generation moans about how liberal the new lot are and how it's damaging the fabric of what they believe is right. My poor grandparents must have had kittens when their children were growing up in the sixties.
There will always be folk who want to take it too far and right-minded people will exist to rein them back in. This is just how shit gets done. Some people declare their opinion as being the only logical one. Actually, we all do that, but with different levels of frequency. That's where things go wrong. Persuasive arguments recognise the views of others and present a better alternative. The far right and the far left suggest an alternative view is to be held only by an idiot, a queerosexual or a skinhead. The world doesn't work like that.
Don't know why I'm yammering on tbh. I said what I wanted on the lads' mags in my first response ITT. I even think I agreed with you, in part.
Been 20 years since Bill and Ted and we still haven't learned to be excellent to one another.

The rest of your post lacks any logic or reason.
Rubbish, you are only saying that because it disagrees with your opinion. You will notice that a fair few on here agree with me, so don't make it sound like its my opinion that is out of kilter. Your opinion is different to mine, no more or less, it is not better or worse either just different and from opposite ends of the spectrum.
Also please don't take the 'PC wanker' stuff personally Dan it not directed at you, just more of a generic phrase for the guys wanting to stick their noses into others business and influence what they can and can't do. I am obviously winding you up a little bit, but I kind of thought we'd had enough banter on these sorts of thread for you to know that by now. And of course I fully expect jabs back in my direction, I wouldn't be saying it if I couldn't take it back, that's all part of the banter

Bit of fun as well as my opinion in part if truth be told.

You deserve a reply for writing all that, but I think we'll be here for days if we get into it.

Okay so you think calling a female "princess", saying "man up" or suggesting someone is "handicapped" is offensive but you think that putting sexually provocative pictures on the front page of magazines is just fine......I'm more than a bit confused as to where this "PC wanker" line is drawn.....

No idea, but this doesn't come close to it imo, we have bigger things we should be worrying about than this.
