I watched jimmy Carr on stage last night on Netflix. Hilarious. Suggest you don’t watch it Explain the joke then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ferkorf Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 8 minutes ago, McRightSide said: Exactly my point. It’s apparently funny to call people gay. I also suspect - just my opinion - that it was referring to the fact that our current team isn’t very good...almost as if gay people aren’t very good at football. And in a thread about what would happen if a player of ours came out... Firstly I'll address that bit you have just made up because you are clearly batsh1t crazy. I never said the word gay or that gay footballers are worse footballers etc Clearly an under lying mental health issue or you are upset thinking I made a joke about your kind? I never made a joke either. Its 2020 not 1990 its ok to be gay hence I'd be surprised if any of them were straight and hadn't dabbled in a bit of male shenanigans with the money, glitz and glam. But whilst I am at it, our players aren't very good at football no matter what their sexual orientation. If they are all straight maybe we need some gay fellas if they are anything like my gay friends they would certainly spark a bit of life into the dressing room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a poppet and just highlight how this is discrimination as the owlstalk SJW. You sound like one of those eternally outraged people who manufacture oppression out of thin air.

Thing is, nearly all comedy has an element of taking the p*ss out of someone’s characteristics. Lots of comedians are gay/black/brown/yellow/disabled and actively make fun of themselves in a racist or homophobic way and most people can find that funny As long as it’s not targeted at someone personally and it’s not abusive then there’s not much wrong with that.

I’ve seen gay people walk down the street holding hands and get abused regularly Every time we play Brighton, there’s homophobic jokes here on your very site Gay people are marginalised in many places because they’re different I’m not sure that society accepts gay people like straight people are accepted...to me, that still represents a societal problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for making a joke, I've been ginger since birth and was getting the jokes aimed at me before I was out of nappies, that gives me a right to take the pi55 out of anyone I want as I've suffered longer than anyone who is bisexual, transsexual, straight, fat or coloured.
