Is This Actually Offensive?

[TARPD]

2 sharks swimming round the atlantic. one says "i'm sick of tuna lets go to morecombe and get chinese"

[DanB]

I guess so but :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[TARPD]

that winterton bird just got sacked for telling this joke. apparently its racist, i dont think it is but it may be offensive to the families who lost people in morcombe :huh:

[Sparkle1984]

It most certainly is offensive, and I'm glad that woman got sacked for saying it. I beg to disagree with TARPD. People in high positions should not talk like that. I do not find it funny in the slightest.

It would be considered unacceptable to make a joke about September 11th, for example, so why do some people find it funny to make jokes about Chinese people dying? Something to do with race?

I agree.

[JONNO_CELEBS]

I agree Sparkle, I've heard about 8 different jokes, same as after Di died , all the jokes came flooding, I never really did think any of them were funny.

Is that one racist?

Yes, it refers to Chinese people as food produce and would offend any one of them, therefore it's racist :)

NATIONAL FRONT LIVES ON KLF!!!

Seek hiel :lol: :lol:

I'm kidding ok :rolleyes:

[mrcall1969]

I do find it offensive, more so for mocking the dead than being racist :(

[TARPD]

its not derogatory towards chinese people. its a joke about a small group of people who happen to be chinese

[Busyman]

What about this?

2 gay men are in a bathtub together.

One sees something floating in the tub.

The says, "Why did you spit in the tub?"

The other says, "I didn't...........I just farted."

Heard it before, like "I can smell cum, did you fart" etc etc, heard em all

But I wanna know what a "Bummer" is?

Jonno B)

[TARPD]

someone who bums

[h1]

That China joks was very offensive. You either were raised in an environment where racism is nothing serious or you need some fucking perspective.

[TARPD]

could you point out the racist bit please? the joke had a double meaning; chinese food <-> cockle pickers who happen to be chinese

[bigboab]

Every joke is offensive to somebody. You will never stop people from making these jokes. They have been around ever since I can remember. The only thing to do, if you find them offensive, is to ignore them.

[mrcall1969]

Again, I don&#39;t really think you can call it racist, just totally offensive to mock dead people :angry:

Interesting. If I joked about heterosexual sex would it be as offensive?

[TARPD]

no busy&#33; you&#39;ve fallen into jonno&#39;s trap. he wanted me to say gay sex, but i said anal ;)

[JONNO_CELEBS]

Heh trust me, if I set you a trap you would have fallen in it, I set no trap, I&#39;m not that sad, I just wondered why you were calling homosexual people "Bummers"?

Do you call a Black person "Nigger"?
Do you call a Pakistani person "Paki"?
Do you call people with glasses "4 eyes"?

Just wondering why you&#39;re so self consious is all :)

Jonno B)

Edit @Busy......I think Marc was possibly talking about the coment under you joke :) Nothing wrong with your joke, bit gross but not offensive :)

[TARPD]

it was a trap you just admitted it, but i didnt call gay men bummers :P

Well if you insist it was a trap then I take credit for it working, because you have now mentioned "Gay men" twice, whereas I never did.

Sorry, you dropped yourself in it on this one.

nope the joke opens "two guys in a bath........"

[JONNO_CELEBS]

So your statement "Embarassing Bummers" was incorect? :)

Due to "Bummers" being people who perform anal sex.

Therefore it covers hetrosexuals too, yet the joke is a "Gay man" Joke :P

I would presume so. But I do not know if there is an official definition out yet to cover the sexual connotation of the word.

I would have thought the phrase &#39;bummers&#39; would be mutually exclusive to homosexuals :unsure: :ph34r:
