I thought the Jimmy Carr Netflix was really funny.
Good thing is if you don’t want to watch something then don’t.
Nice & simple ?

I watched it last night and I thought it was okay, not brilliant but some funny bits with the crowd. Best thing about the situation is there’s a warning from Netflix of its content , jimmy himself warns of the content and the title itself suggests it’s “dark material”.

Yet here we are. It’s like going to a restaurant and ordering something you don’t like then complaining about it.

He even said during the show some of his jokes were designed to get him cancelled.

Would we stretch it to the forum? and allow political postings. Those who get offended by Right or Left should not click on that link. Political postings should not be allowed on other threads - except where clearly marked. (18+ rating only)

Prompted by Dando's post in the 'Laughter...' post #4595

People who let pets into bedrooms, on kitchen furniture etc. Do they know how dogs and cats clean their backsides and cover their 'deposits ' while outside? :mad::mad:

Yes it always amazes me when you see dog lovers let their pets lick their face.

Do they not know where their tongues have been ?

To be fair, it's popped up in the thread a couple of times with posters complaining about people complaining about Jimmy - not posters complaining about Jimmy.
Maybe those who don't like reading about Jimmy being complained about should stop looking for articles criticising him. It works both ways.

You lost me there.
Are you offended or not? ?

Offended - no not personally.
I've only commented in response to people complaining about other people complaining.
I do think that Jimmy Carr's "joke" was to comedy what the phone tapping episode was to journalism though.

No. A waste and an abuse of a right won by previous generations.
When folks in the past have fought tyranny and oppression to secure freedom of speech and freedom of expression, I'm guessing they didn't have in mind the rights of future comedians to make gags about genocide.
Bit deep that for me,I just found it funny

Won an parking fine appeal … Got a refund. Happy Days..

Then they send me a cheque.. the last time i went into a bank branch was in the 60s. I don’t even know if my high street has any banks left (plenty of pawn shops though).

Why can’t they simply reverse the transaction on the card.

They send a cheque in the hope you won’t take it to the bank.

Because they hope you don’t cash the cheque.

Most banks allow cheques to be paid in at cash machines or via the bank app on your phone
