    Good idea.

    Please remember though that Frontroom rules apply to linked material. If the F-Bomb gets dropped so does the link.

    Mitch is one of my favorite comics of all time. His Comedy Central Presents was amazing, along with everything else he did.

    Is it really that bad if there is? If a warning is given in the post, it's a pretty simple choice whether or not you want to listen to it...

    It's not that it's that bad, but this is the way the Frontroom is. We have a zero tolerance policy regarding swearing and we enforce it ruthlessly. It keeps things friendly.

    Some swearing in linked material might be missed (or perhaps overlooked), but repeated F-Bombs and the like are definitely verbotten, warning or no warning.

    There are 452,781,299 internet forums that allow swearing. The Frontroom is not one of them.

    Even though I hate all the politics of it and disagree with the idea itself, it may very well be one of the reasons why these forums are one of the best around. I hate paradoxes.

    Not a vid. but very funny sound file. The classic 'who's on first'

    "who's on first?"

    NB: file found on left side menu, enjoy.
    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.

    No to worry, old chap! One has just passed the 5k mark and found nothing in the Cunnies to write home about. No wonder it isn't even mentioned in the recent HoF thingamy. Huge disappointment. Washing it down required an entire bottle of gin at Madame Lucille's.

    Oh dear, my caustic judgment on the CF was apparently a bit premature. Some people were less than amused when they read it, since they went out of their way last night on their fortnightly presentation. One was entertained after all, I will readily admit.
    Traa!
