    Seriously, dude, if you don't know, don't answer!

    It's NOT Chris Eubank.
    It IS Mike Tyson.

    Who DOES have a lisp.
    Or at least a speech impediment that is somewhat lisp-like!!




    He had already corrected himself on this part though.

    Agreed, but in correcting himself on one error, he made another!

    So, in short, he didn’t know, and would have been better not to have commented at all.

    And a Merry Christmas to you too!

    (Seriously, the internet would be a better place if a simple error wasn't pounced upon like an utter See You Next Tuesday... Try it some time)

    And it would be even better again if people who don't know stuff would stop acting like they're some kind of expert!

    It’s a comment about a joke that was posted. Hardly worth the attitude

    My first post on the matter was just giving the guy some advice.

    I don't think I had much of a bad attitude up to the point where I was called a C*U*N*T.

    But I don't think it's unreasonable for my attitude to have changed afterwards.

    Your first post on the matter actually pointed out stuff which was already in my post.

    It - and your subsequent posts - were overly aggressive to the extent of justifying my criticism of them, as others have agreed.

    Anyways, on that note, I'm ou. Until locum makes a mistake on the internet, which I'm sure never happens. Well, except the bit in your post where you suggest I'm putting myself across as an expert, which I never did. Just, you know, giving you advice there. You seem to be putting yourself across as an expert in knowing when people are experts...

    The Granny knitting a noose 'joke'? Absolutely dreadful. And before any tries to label me a snowflake over this, if that joke was her knitting a noose for her black neighbour, it would be deemed unbelievably racist and rightfully so.

    No. The butt of the joke is the old person and her outdated views, it doesn't advocate doing what's in the joke. If you really need to read some sort of -ism into it ageism is probably as close as you could get.

    If it's from Bootup, given his post history, the butt of the joke for him is the trans brother not the old woman.

    That may be Bootup's intention, I don't know, but it isn't the joke's.

    She suspected she was pregnant when he told a dad joke, because, you know, dad's tell those bad jokes! So she took a pregnancy test.

    Nope, still don't get it. Don't worry trying to explain it to me, we'll all survive to 2019 if I never know.
