Craig 6682 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Suggestion in the news today Levi Bellfield has admitted to the murders of Lin and Megan Russell, and the near fatal attack on Josie Russell in 1996. Michael Stone has been locked up for 26 years and always vehemently denied involvement and the evidence that convicted his was said to be circumstantial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35083 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Just been to a kids’ party at Inflatanation at North Shields. I haven’t been to Royal Quays for years. Fuck me, I’m not saying the place is run down but they’ve got a Poundland Outlet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21627 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Been shit for years, Poundland is probably the most useful shop there! I did some casual work in a "pound" shop in the US way back in 90s before they were heard of here. Actually it was the 88 cent store, which was undercutting the more established 99 cent store. Both sold the same Chinese made shit. However, sales tax was prepaid in the 99 shop but added after the sale in our shop, making the purchase the same price and pissing off the customers at the same time. US entrepreneurship at it's best. Genius. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17277 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Lots of friends of Carr and right wing trolls trying to justify this...not sure if I can tbh...the Gypsies are probably the only group Carr thought he'd get away with...can anyone explain why its OK?...am willing to listen... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30616 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I like Jimmy Carr and I like bad taste jokes but you can’t make a joke of up to 500,000 deaths in the Holocaust and not expect a lot of blow back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21627 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I've never found him funny, I do like edgy humour, but to go anywhere near a holocaust joke is fucking stupid if nothing else. What did this joke achieve? It had no subtlety about it, it didn't enlighten in any way. Prejudice against travellers is one of the main remaining "isms" going. However, their way of life isn't really ever going to integrate with the rest of the population so its not going away. Shows like Gypsey Wedding etc just reinforce things but everybody's got their own true anecdotes about this group. Hardly justifies genocide or joking about it though .

Kid Dynamite 7030 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Holocaust jokes aren't edgy. Bad comedians have been telling offensive jokes for cheap laughs for decades. At least pick something contemporary. Tell an awful joke about the ethnic cleansing of Uyghurs in China and have it all over the papers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4725 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Up bright and early for work at 5.00am until the cat sneaked a mouse into the house Wife has gone absolutely bat shit crazy, threatening to spend all day sitting in her car. So I’ve just spent two hours chasing the little fucker and moving furniture and I’m no further forward. Off to Screwfix for supplies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21627 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 That's no way to talk about CT''s missus etc.... The little fuckers freak me out too. Last one I had I cornered and it climbed into my sound systems woofer. I couldn't get it out without dismantling it so I just took the speaker to the dump and left it. Gruesome. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44894 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I've posted a good holocaust joke on here on several occasions. The comedian that told it has yet to be canceled. I haven't watched Carr's joke, gonna watch it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastronaut 1333 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Punching down at minorities aside, it's just a shit joke. A good punchline should fairly unexpected, could see that coming a mile off. Think Jimmy might need Frankie Boyle writing for him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really speak to how offensive it is cos I'm not the subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the cat should be told to finish the job it started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
