Inappropriate Jokes and blonde

[Trace]

fair enough. what about if you were in the pub and u called your mate a hippy and someone on the other side of the bar said- do you mind I used to have long hair and I'm offended by that comment. would you say "ok then sorry about that "and never call your mate a hippy again? Or is it more likely you would just say it quieter?

I'd say it quiter, outwith their earshot.

In the context of a public forum such as this, that means not posting it, or pm-ing it.

Trigger 10-15 PM's to Flushie calling him a cream cake....

Just what I thought you would say. We cant say anything quieter on a forum, its meant to be fun on here. In a pub scenario I would be just as likely to say" do you mind we are having fun between ourselves here, if you don't like it then lump it" (or words to that effect)

the basis of your argument throughout your posts tank seems to be that by changing the wording you remove the implied intent of your comment.

This cant be the case can it?
 

Yes it can.

1. Flushy is a big cream puff

2. Flushy is as camp as a boy scout jambouree.

Both mean the same to me, both mean the same to Royal Flush.

A third party could use the argument that I'm implying as to Royal Flush's sexuality in a derrogotory way in the first, but not really the second.

Are these euphemistic terms still implying homosexuality as the recipiant would understand it?

That's a choice thing, and I guess I'll just have to repsect that.

On blonde I'd like to think we'll all loosely connected and in some way friends.

It's not the guy behind the bar that's asked, it's one of our friends.

Call me a lilly livered liberal if you will.

I'd like to think not.

Puff alludes to poof which is a slang word for a homosexual.

Camp alludes to, well being camp, which is not the same thing at all IMO.
