Funny versus Real

There seems to be a misunderstanding, there is real Bad Stuff out there, and, there is Fringe Stuff, that most folks suffer, is a Forum the best place to debate what folks say, in words, or, is it best to leave such questions, to folks with an ology.

Re: Funny versus Real

Most of us can decipher what is okay to discuss on this forum without delving too deep into really dangerous stuff or borderline offensive.

If it gets too close to the bone then that's the moderators job to decide what isn't right for a forum such as this.

Re: Funny versus Real

Just because someone has an ology doesn't make their opinions more valid.

Re: Funny versus Real

Seems to me it's what forums were originally for, all those questions that you want to talk about but are either too contentious or serious to do in real life.

Re: Funny versus Real

I'm sure there are lots of things (or fings) some of us would like to say but 'free speech' prohibits it.

Re: Funny versus Real

Let's not forget what forum's are for. They replace the Bar that we used to lean on with a fag and a pint in our hand discussing world events, and sport.
We all know how far to go, otherwise we'd be banned.
I don't say anything to anyone on here that I wouldn't say to their face, but I wouldn't want to upset anyone. You sort of know those who will accept your comments in the spirit in which they were meant (usually light hearted or humourous) and those to be a bit careful with.....I hope..

This forum in particular (not that I frequent any others) is like a world within a world, and I can't wait to see what people are talking about most days...Well alright then......every day.....
