    *** Mod Notice ***

    I just found out the singer discussed in this thread is connected with those who cannot be named.
    Therfore I must edit all references to him, including my own, regardless of how innocent they were.

    Hagar

    **** End Notice ***



    I came downstairs this morning and my wife asked what i wanted for breakfast. So i said, "Eggs, Bacon, fried bread and Mushrooms". At least thats what i meant to say. What i actually said was "You ruined my life, you fat ugly witch."

    Three women are talking about their love lives.
    1st Woman: My husband is like a Rolls Royce, smooth and sophisticated
    2nd Woman: My husband is like a Porsche, fast and incredibly powerful
    3rd Woman: My husband is like a Robin Reliant. It needs a hand start. Then you have to jump on quick once you get it going.

    Basically my wife was immature. I'd be at home in the bath and she'd come in whenever she felt like it and sink my boats.

    My wife and I lead a quiet life. The last time when we went out together was when the gas boiler exploded.

    Husband: Put on your coat, I'm going to the pub.
    Wife: Oh thats nice dear, are you taking me for a drink?
    Husband: No, I'm turning the heating off

    I've often wanted to drown my troubles, but i can't get my wife to go swimming

    A man rushes into his house and tells to his wife, "Mary, pack up your things! I just won the lotto!" Mary shouts back, "Shall I pack for warm weather or cold?" The man replies, "I don't care!, just so long as you are out of the house by noon!"



    Start a poll. Who wants to ban me?

    I think it should be an automatic ban for anyone posting these jokes for the 100oth time

    I'm going to say this just once more.

    The reason negative comments on jokes are not allowed is because it discourages other posters from posting because they don't want ridicule.

    I'm not making that up either, another poster had put up another set of jokes which they deleted after seeing the above comment. They were decent jokes, which had all been posted before, so what, as long as it wasn't too recently.

    I will reinstate their post if the poster PMs me.

    AlanMurphy83 gets a 1 week ban as a result.

    Excellent.

    There is a case for saying that some of the OP's jokes were a bit ancient, not that there's anything wrong with that. But sometimes the most unpromising posts can provoke the liveliest discussions - look at the corner our Moderator has painted himself into now. ;)
    A valuable lesson to us all....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,793 ✭✭✭✭Hagar


    Indeed John, never a truer word spoken.:)

    Mick:

    About the reaction to your jokes. Here's one I had the other week from The Bollox, in response to one I posted about a girl with a glass eye.

    *cocks shotgun*

    I'll give you to the count of three!

    This is proper criticism of a bad joke. I really love the 'stage directions' we see in this forum from time to time - the sound of coats being zipped up, taxis being hailed. The Bollox criticised my joke, and it made my day.

    Absolutely, in fact the aforementioned Bollox even crticised one of my jokes, why i don't know cause mine are all so good, but he said "I loved that joke and by love, i mean i want to kill you". Why can't I be a bollox too!!

    Great - so it seems that The Bollox is "the man" for joke criticism.

    (Probably a feckin' woman) :eek:

    Harmless is it? I'm just waiting for winter to try this one out.

    All depends on your timing really and how far you are out that door before you say the last line

    Haven't been back since, will have to scout the pub out before I go in again, although it's a small country pub where everyone knows everyone's business, so no doubt the whole of South-West Roscommon knows that I'm a saddo now, although I could be asked onto quiz pub teams for free pints so I'll let you know how I get on this weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 968 ✭✭✭Oliverdog


    We'll look forward to your news. Perhaps best to keep Mastermind <snip> on the back burner for a while. ;)

    Three Black American women are talking about their love lives. (You need to think black deep southern US female accent here)
    1st Woman: I call my husband Long John, cos man, he's got a loooong John
    2nd Woman: I call my husband thick Richard, cos man, he's got a real thick D**k
    3rd Woman: I call my man Courvoisier.
    1st and 2nd women: Courvoisier? aint that one o' dem fancy liquers?
    3rd Women; uuhh huh!;)

    ha ha, very good!!!!
    So you're now firing blanks? ;)
    This isn't the Personal issues forum you know, this is humour, and i now know way too much about you, but good for you for sharing!
    Round of applause for John, everyone!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 233 ✭✭EricM


    i dont know what all those snips were about.
    but dont we have freedom of speech in this country?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 968 ✭✭✭Oliverdog


    Thanks Mick - as they say, "Emission Impossible!"

    Well, not impossible, but any Issues are not of a Personal nature any more.

    Freedom of speech is a fallacy, Boards.ie is a private site and what the Admins say goes. End of story.

    There is a sticky at the top of every single forum on this site forbidding discussion of anything to do with company M*C*D.

    A number of posts, including some of my own, discussed an artist associated with the company. The posts were made in total innocence. None of us knew that a 70's artist was now involved with them.

    As soon as it was realised any posts which made mention of the artist were edited by me to conform with Boards.ie guidlines on the topic. Very simple.

    I attach no blame to any poster but I hold my hand up as the concerned mod and accept full reponsibility for the thread content as I should have questioned the artist's affiliations from the start.

    On that note I think I shall close this thread.
