What is it you are not allowed to say?

[Johnny Mars Bar]

In jail? In actual jail?

Yeah, these days, just for saying you’re English

 

[BTH]

The most depressing thread I've ever seen on BM. Its intention was dubious to say the least, and it's literally nine pages of posters wallowing in misery.

Shut it down mods. If it's misery people want, there's a Smiths thread somewhere.

'I prefer refs to have tech help'

'Southgate did a good job'

'Bellingham is a good player'

He stayed a bit too long but Southgate did more good than bad, certainly in the earlier phases of his tenure.

He left the place in a better state than he found it.

These days if you say you’re English they arrest you and throw you in jail

It's true, the jails are overflowing with people who carelessly mentioned their birthplace, and there's a roaring trade in fake Welsh birth certificates to avoid the bar on English people getting jobs.

Of all people on here I expected you’d be one of the folk who got the reference, I am very disappointed.

Why and for committing what crime? Where did you get this from?

Ah, I thought it was just random sarcasm. I'm still none the wiser though!

It’ll teach me for making a Stewart Lee joke on a football forum.

Haha. Well fair play, I've had a look and it is the perfect end to this thread.

great sketch by him......his repetition has perfect timing.

Gay space mice even get a mention.

Is that the one that starts off as a love story but where McRomeo then gets twatted on buckfast and crystal meth and beats McJuliet to death in a tragic ending in an act of extreme domestic violence because she didn’t have his deep fried mars bar ready on the table when he got back from the rangers match?

I think it depends totally on the sensitivities of the target. Some people are offended by being called a **** some people it will not even register. Likewise, in private life, with racist, religious, ageist language, etc. Some people are offended, others not bothered. However, in public life, people will often be sacked, cancelled etc for not towing the line and offending someone/anyone. For instance, on here, privately, we can all call Starmer/Farage/Trump/etc 'Cunts' BUT if you appeared on Television representing your company and called Starmer/Farage/Trump a **** then you would be sacked.

Explicit warning. This may make your eyes water.
Slightly off topic but never mind words, what about actions?
Should whatever goes on behind closed doors between two consenting adults be legal?
There was a case in Germany, I think, where a masochist got an accomplice to hammer a nail through the bell end of his erect penis. Is that acceptable?

Up to him imo.

You mean Macbeth?

 

[DelToro]

You mean Macbeth?

You’re not actually allowed to say that.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

You’re not actually allowed to say that.

Only if you’re an actor worried about breaking a leg.

 

[1961_vintage]

You mean Macbeth?

MacDonalds.
