I'm drinking some of this cheap tescos white wine in a can and it's fookin tasty! :01: like most white wines
not too keen on red though, makes you puke red if you drink too much:unsure:
other ones aren't too bad, but you get the occasional pink ones that taste like arse:unsure:
I'd say other
Something other than wine :lol:
Some of us aren’t classy enough to drink it, specially from a can:lol::lol:
I'm drinking white wine right now.
Again. :01:
I didn't see the can bit first time round
I won't post in a wine-related thread in a valiant effort to end an old cliché.
white Bourgogne aligoté all the way :01:
Thunderbird Red Label Wine :01:
That's the only wine I like. Wine is for ... people other than me.

Maybe Biggles, Skweeky, SGG or Gripper (amongst others) could explain it to you...
:rolleyes:
I actually agreed with you on the Chav thing, as much as I dislike them, they are a minority group :unsure:Quote:

No, however there are rules against Religious Discrimination..
Wicca is a religion... a witch is commonly regarded as a wiccan.
Ergo... Due to acts that were perpetrated against pagans, (Laws that were only repealed in the 1950's in the UK) it could be looked upon as similar to Jokes about the Holocaust to Jewish members...
Let me explain....
Wicca is a serious and recognised religion and an historically persecuted group.
By promoting (even joking) about the torture or abuse of witches (and you can insert your minority group of choice here) you are proliferating contining hostility towards this group.
If you are a member of this persecuted group, then clearly you would see it as offensive to have that group pilloried or put down, and would perhaps feel disturbed about joking references to the mistreatment of 'your people' even if you realised that it was ignorance rather than malice in its intent.
It makes no difference what 'group' you refer to, this could be Jews, Muslims, Wiccans, or Gays.
Does this help in the explanation?
do you really think we were discriminating a religion??
Excellent, Sara.
This is beyond a joke.
Obviously the 'witches' burnt in medieval times were just regular people, if we are taking the mickey out of anyone it is the idiots who burnt them -- The English. Of course, it is fine to take the piss out of the English tho.
And the Welsh. I didn't notice any reprimands doled out when I get called a sheep fucker. Then again, I didn't take offence because I don't fuck sheep.
Given that we're not about to burn any Wiccans I don't think anyone has been out of order in this thread whatsoever.

You are making us out to be nasty people pouring scorn on a religion when we made a few light hearted jokes much like the scene in Monty Python search for the holy grail. Very tongue in cheek
I’m pretty sure the Holocaust didn’t enter anyone’s mind when reading my childish post, it was all fun and games until your post ;) It was more relevant to Sabrina the teenage witch – if that hasn’t been banned from our screens :rolleyes:Quote:

What about people who worship the devil, aren’t they going to be taken into consideration? They’re a minority group and it’s even religious. One of, if not the oldest too :unsure:
No.Quote:

I know of a few now, and therefore have to enforce it the same way i would if you were Joking about the Holocaust or any other attrociaty.
I KNOW there was no malice involved by anyone...
You:dry: see what Wine does to Threads......
blows them way off topic
now where where wear were we?

I'm sorry, we were calling Gurahl a witch because he speaks French.
We were being deliberately obtuse because it's a parody of the Monty Python scene.
I really do NOT think there is anything whatsoever offensive about that.
Or is there? Enlighten me.
Is it as offensive as being called a sheepfucker.
There is being considerate of other's feelings and then there is going way OTT and creating a problem where there is none. I do not believe for a second that any Wiccans that frequent the board would have been even mildly offended by that.
As I don't get offended in the slightest at being called a sheepfucker. Even though that is much more of a perpetuated stereotype than a wiccan being burned.
Give it up RF, as Manker said the welsh take sheep jokes, Christians take all kinds of jokes, as do other religions groups ect
And they take it all in their stride and know it’s jokingly
Is Wicca above all this? :unsure: ( Despite nothing really being said against it in the first place :blink: )
I only asked you lot to cool it and go easy...
If i get no complaints i dont care.. :P
