Made a poor-taste joke about speech impediments. Wasn't really thinking, to be honest, and now I look like a proper twat.

93 people know what an Arse I am now.

On the other hand, it's ironic when people who go on about PC taking over seem to be getting upset about a shite little joke. It's nothing to do with who posted it, is it?

Still, doesn't take away from my foolishness.

I read it...honestly it wasn't bad! I think it is much worse when people rip each other to shreds with really person insults on some of the other sections.

I think the title was actually pretty offensive. If I'd just posted in a silly style (i.e. like I had a lisp or something), it wouldn't have been nearly as bad. I just wasn't thinking.

Ah, well. Shit happens. Mistakes are to be learned from.

A-Ha. So THIS is where you're skulking !!

You really should know by now that you can't post anything on TIO - tongue in cheek or not - without getting ripped to shreds by the tree-huggers.

I DARE you to start an 'obese' thread or a 'freckle-face' thread. Ha - Ha !

Don't worry about it. I can't pronounce my 'r's properly, but couldn't give a flying French Connection.

I'm also vertically challenged but who cares? No little man syndrome for me, unless under influence of double digits wife beater.

Now if you said something about the Austalians being good sports (even though they only resurface when the going is good for them, and then most deny being followers of rugby in 2003), then I would get angry.

P.S.If Thordpedo played cricket, he would bat for England.

I don't think that's true at all.

Little Jimmy, many people have made far worse arses of themselves, forget it
