    Do you read books?

    It's only hair. The most stupid of all body parts. Some people want more of it, some want less, some want it a different colour, some want to keep it the same colour.

    Back in my day, there was no such thing as "Ginger". Funny how influenced some have become by British media over the last decade or more.

    Ginger, red, what's the difference.

    Replace ginger with black and the OP is banned. Strange world.

    Havent you heard? Orange is the new black.

    Fred Astaire and Red Rogers doesn't have the same ring.

    Having been ginger for the last 31 years, and working in a job where insults are part of it, i reckon I've heard all of the ginger insults that are out there. I'm even helping people with their insults by being slightly below average height, and a bit overweight. I quickly came to accept the ginger insults during school, and nowadays i love getting them, because it can tell a lot about a person by how original their insult is.

    So come at me AH, give me an insult i haven't heard yet!

    In what kind of job are insults considered a part?

    One is a colour, the other is an insult taken from British culture.

    Sounds like the OP is suffering from Stockholm syndrome – quite sad. It’s a proven fact that red-haired women are the most beautiful in the world.

    As a superior brown haired person, lately I've been been beginning to agree with this. The good red heads are quality! Then again the bad ones are putrid. There doesn't seem to be a middle ground.

    A friend of mine has very ginger hair and on a weekly basis gets talking to girls with the line "Do you like biscuits? Would you like some ginger nuts?". Sadly for him he's an eejit and doesn't get further than that.

    I can remember being asked if I had been left out in the rain (rust reference).

    Well i wouldn't call myself a red head. My hair isn't red. It's far from red. Anyway, Ginger is a colour now.

    A job in which i'm not allowed to identify myself as an employee. But i'll give a hint, people hate us, and we're not politicians.

    The ginger woman at my work recently announced that she is pregnant by her black boyfriend. She was discussing possible baby names the other day, apparently "Terry The Chocolate Orange" is not tolerated and is enough to get you fired.

    Totally worth it though.

    Never heard that red-heads had a tenancy towards being flat chested. Is Christina Hendricks an imposter? Or *pray it isn't so* are they not natural?
    Bullshíte, my OH is a natural red head with natural big boobies in a tiny 5'2" frame, hubba hubba :D

    I have to disagree, back in the 80's we used that word for gingers and I know someone who is 60 whose had the nickname ginger for most of his life. Sorry guys, you can't blame that one on the English.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,028 ✭✭✭✭--LOS--


    I think probably 'ginger' is the worst

    We all secretly love red hair though

    In Australia they're affectionately referred to as 'Rangas'.

    Ginger pubes are the work of the devil.

    Had a massive crush on a guy in school with auburn hair and hazel eyes. If I met him today the clothes would be off within seconds.
