My interests include pornography and opera.
Which is probably why I keep getting adverts for “Women looking for sex in your Aria.”

I have filled in the disguised letters. I can’t imagine what anyone else thought they might be - a filthy mind if you ask me.
It’s a very funny joke if told correctly. Probably works better spoken than written though.

I’m not really sure I understand the concept of a joke thread if any joke is deleted when someone chooses to be offended by it. Seems the joke’s on us.

I’d agree for a written joke but some images do cross the line and should be removed (sexist/racist/etc). Which is fine when it happens except it, move on, however some want to continue to question the decision.

I agree most written jokes are the least likely to cause offence. The problem (with those I’ve seen) in my very large open mind is they are just basic toilet wall small boy smut & not in the least bit funny.
Nope, don’t get that one…
Love smutty schoolboy humour myself.

Nothing less funny than analysing jokes, but…
The delicious irony that someone/people were offended by their own interpretation of an obscured swear word was not lost on me. At best foolish, and at worst hypocritical and foolish.
As I have demonstrated, the word ‘clot’ fits equally as well, although weakens the premise of the joke, which relies on the strength of the insult (irrespective of whether someone finds it funny.)
I don’t care whether something of mine gets deleted or not, but I do care if something posted by someone else, which I might find funny, gets removed before I get a chance to see it, because someone else did/could not see the humour in it.
If you don’t find something amusing, just scroll on.
To get offended by two letters with asterisks between them is completely absurd and betokens a skin so thin it is quite surprising the person/people concerned has managed to make it to adulthood. They should certainly avoid looking at this thread in future lest their head explodes.
I was told a joke last night which had a roomful of (admittedly fairly alcohol sodden) middle aged adults of both sexes and three skin types, laughing out loud.
But it involves words for a male chicken and a pet-cat having alternative meanings. So, apparently, too raunchy for some here. Shame.

I was asked to run a marathon and I said, “No chance.”
Then I was told it was for disabled and blind kids and I thought, “Sod it. I could win that!”

I had a Bonnie Tyler sat nav for Christmas.
