I am the same good subject though

I was accused, on another forum, of being 'sick' (I'm not saying I'm NOT sick but .......) by posting this joke

"Beautiful manilla envelope
Address written in lovely flowing italic
Topped with a first class stamp ....

This isn't just any P45, this is an M&S P45!"

Well guess what, someone's wife had just been made redundant (not from M&S) and it was 'sick' to post a joke like that in this 'current climate'

If you have a blue or sick joke for your chums that you are unsure of, you've always got the PM system!!

Thank you Gerry, spot on. One of the attractions of the site is that all areas are accessable to every single member of whatever age, safe in the knowledge that they (probably) won't be offended. That doesn't mean we don't debate contentious issues, but that's different. The Forum is certainly not the place for those jokes.....

I would agree but I don't think that was the intention as the question was does it offend, and I would be surprised if anyone would intentionally post something offensive on the sight! and as mentioned there is the standards police whom would thankfully sensor it first!

If your funny you will make people laugh JT spot on!

Fair point Barry, I think I misunderstood Dai's question, that is unless he was guaging opinion before posting one.....In which case...I'm spot on!

Yeh knowing Dai as we do Al you probably are spot on.

Dai m8 there are some people who wouldnt care less and can find the funny side of most things taken in the right context that it is just that a joke. But as has previously been said we are all different mate and have all had different life experiences and as eggs is eggs a joke that may get 10 people laughing will probably offend 2 others.
