I expect like everything else on here some snowflake will complaint and it will be removed
Lady in red … REALLY???
Do some people come on the jokes thread just to be “incensed”
Get a life
Did I miss something?
Yes
A couple of innocuous comments/jokes that wouldn’t offend a Benedictenn monk have “disappeared” for no obvious reason despite our “mod’s” recent assurances that they don’t get involved in the jokes thread unless something seriously political/racial is involved
I don’t blame the mod’s
It’s easier to delete something than to tell someone that they need to get over themselves
But I …and one or two others (some have already given up on this thread and indeed this forum) am getting sick of it.
Well said
I don’t recall Richard saying that. My recollection was more along the lines that if just a single person flags a joke as offensive, it automatically gets removed (by the system) and generally, Richard won’t re-instate it.
Having said that (and I will probably have to stand corrected !) both myself and Mrs D found both those picture jokes quite funny and true to life !!
I think the Museum joke above, just about sums up the current situation.
It is ironic that such anti-logic (a la Star Trek) exists nowadays e.g.
‘where the needs of the one, outweigh the needs of the many’.
I think I got that right?
I can only deal with this through humour.
The system doesn’t remove flagged posts. Our moderator reads the comment of the flagged and decides what to do.
What Richard said was that if anyone flagged something in the jokes thread then he removes it.

This might be useful information regarding how flagging generally works:
I knew I would have to stand corrected … thanks David 
As previously posted last week:
I have reiterated on many occasions what the moderation policy is for the “best jokes” thread. As there is a such a diversity of ethnicity, background, culture here, and what may well be deemed funny by some may well be seen as quite the opposite, or indeed quite offensive by others, then, barring any so-called jokes that may either breach forum rules, or that are deemed incontrovertibly unacceptable by the mods, it’s otherwise down to you the members to ultimately decide for yourselves. The only way it can work is that any member can flag up a joke as unacceptable and there’s a high likelihood that it will be removed. After all, it’s a hifi forum first and foremost, but always remember that it also has Naim’s name to it…
Don’t know if that is funny or sad. But very true. Made me laugh out loud.
Is it Neymar?
Can’t be Neymar, the nurse is in the same room as him.
That looks like old Timberrrr himself, aka Harry Kane.
Subject: Japanese doctor
I Love this Japanese Doctor~:thinking:
Q: Doctor, I’ve heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Heart only good for so many beats, and that’s it… Don’t waste time on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speeding up heart not make you live longer; its like saying you extend life of a car by driving faster. Want to live longer?
Take nap.
Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: Oh no. Wine made from fruit. Fruit very good. Brandy distilled wine, that means they take water out of fruity bit so you get even more of goodness that way. Beer also made of grain. Grain good too.
Bottoms up!
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
A: Can’t think of one, sorry.
My philosophy: No pain…good!
Q: Aren’t fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU NOT LISTENING! Food fried in vegetable oil.
How getting more vegetable be bad?
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: You crazy?!? HEL-LO-O!! Cocoa bean! Another vegetable!
It best feel-good food around!
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming good for figure,
explain whale to me.
Q: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! ‘Round’ is also a shape!
Well… I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
And remember:
Finally the Japanese Doctor summed up: Look mister, Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Beer in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming “WOO-HOO, what a ride my life was”!!!
Eat whatever you like because you will still DIE, don’t allow motivational speakers deceive you.
The inventor of the treadmill had died at the age of 54
The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57
The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41
The best footballer in the world Maradona, died at the age of 60.
BUT
The KFC inventor died at 94.
Inventor of Nutella brand died at the age of 88
Imagine, cigarette maker Winston died at the age of 102
The inventor of opium died at the age of 116 in an earthquake
Hennessey inventor dies at 98.
How did these doctors come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life?
The rabbit is always jumping up and down but it lives for only 2 years and the turtle that doesn’t exercise at all, lives 400 years.
So, Take some rest, Chill, Stay cool, eat, drink and enjoy your life. You will still die.
Gone.
