    Default This is getting ridiculous...

    Original thread

    Now, I have recieved some infractions I believe the jury would still be out on. But the last one is just laughable in my view.

    Bear with me.

    Ok, so someone, not me, starts a thread about how Marge Simpson will be featured in Playboy. Marge Simpson, the cartoon. Just to get this straight, it is a cartoon we talk about.

    Now, OP includes the line
    This is the closest you'll ever get to finding out if the carpet really does match the blue drapes.
    One member does not get the pun and asks what it means. I then join the thread and answer him:

    Aemilius Paulus, you don't get it?

    Carpet - pubic hair. But personaly I hope she is shaved
    For this "offensive" post I get.... an infraction?

    I mean seriosly. I was not the one who got the topic started, I just answered a question. Secondly, I do not believe the words "pubic hair" is offensive, or?

    And to top it of: DThread was about a cartoon.



    I mean seriosly... You can't be real giving me an infraction over this?

    I would answer in PM but can't as I am locked out of it, and of the backroom

    Really? Ooh. That's bad. What's wrong with natural? Me I can't get used to completely shave


    Not too long ago, I received a warning point for using direct terminology to explain the expletive meaning of a play on words.

    A bit much, I thought, but oh well.

    I get warnings because I uncovered the Irish conspiracy in the backroom.

    You live, you learn, you start a homo-erotic internet relationship with a Frenchman.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    There is a time to play around. And a time to be serious. We can't just make silly comments all the time. So stop kidding around and get serious: tell me - do you prefer me natural or shaven?

    Shaven, I look to be able to rub my face in all your glory. However if you were to dye your hair I figure I could go primal and bed you with the hair.

    TBH neither is really a dealbreaker for me.

    Yeah, that's a bit weak. What's so offensive about pubic hair?

    Depends on what the "direct terminology" is of course.



    In this case though, I wouldn't consider hair (or no hair) to be worth an infraction. I mean seriosly, hair??

    However, to be honest, it's not even HAIR we talk about, it's weather or not some lines and curves will be being drawn with a blue pencil or not (will the pencil be blue? Will it be drawn?).

    Seriosly...

    I know this forum has some weird standards in European eyes sometimes, but this is just over the line


    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    II <- Would that have been worth a ban, then?

    Perhaps they mis-read it as public hair.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    I have to agree that that's a bit much.

    Me too, I didn't think your comment was over the top in any way.
