I don’t know if you have the ability to read between the lines of what’s written.Not everyone has it.
But those who used that word,.did so for a diminishing and ridicule purpose.
Nick.Lees reacted and described it best in that thread.
If you’re going to have a good discussion,.it’s not a good thing to make use of diminishing words, It doesn’t usually take the discussion forward…or how.
You posted a pretty pathetic joke, at least IMHO, and I’m entitled to express my view.
One or two people liked it. A few of us have subsequently said it was tasteless or pathetic, or whatever. Somebody or perhaps more thought it was inappropriate, and flagged it.
You are not the authority as to what is or isn’t a best joke, and neither am I.
I wrote,.“Some from Ireland”,you have to read properly before commenting.
It was Jimmy Doherty from Ireland,.who put it into a Naim facebook-group.
I don’t know exactly,.but Jimmy is over 60 years old,not 12 years old.
But very good that he is young in his mind.
It’s you,.and some others here,not me,.who make yourself to some self-appointed judges here.
As I said,.different countries,different cultures and different generations.
And I post exactly what I want,.and just like @frenchrooster,I will continue to do so.
And I think you should do that too,.and if I think your jokes are pathetic.
Yes,.then I promise you to just scroll on.
I will not flag,.comment etc.
Because of all the thousands,.who maybe read the forum without being members,some of them maybe appreciate your joke,even if not I do.
Now I have other things to do,.than do this nonsense.
I have conveyed my message…Thanks.
You have complained that others flagged your joke and stated that they must be sensitive individuals. This made you a “self-appointed” judge.
My comment (that I found your joke to be pathetic) was simply a statement of opinion. I am no more a judge than you or anybody else, but I am entitled to express my opinion during a discusion on the subject. I didn’t mention my opinion until I joined this discussion that you started.
I very much doubt if liking or not liking a joke is entirely down to different countries, cultures or generations. Some people like one joke, others like another joke. On this occasion, somebody seems to have had a problem with one of your jokes. It’s not the end of the world.
So, keep posting your jokes, and let’s hope some of them are worthy of the thread title “Best Jokes”
A bra, a car battery and some jump leads walk into a bar.
‘Clear off’ shouts the barman, ‘I’m not serving you. You’re obviously off your tits, and your mates look like they’re about to start something”.
Don,…You obviously never give up,.so okey,then we continue this discussion.
But I’m doing it tomorrow,.because as I said,now I definitely have other things to do,.than discuss whether some are “narrow-minded” or not.
So we see each other tomorrow then .
Just in case anyone thinks this was actually a news story.
From Snopes in 2015:
The report … was just another fabricated clickbait tale from a fake news site (stuppid.com). Stuppid.com’s disclaimer advises readers that the site publishes the “stupidest, craziest stuff we can find,” and the stuff they “find” is typically made up by them.
