How many times have you gone to a club or pub, paid money to get in, and then watched some fat bastad take up all the room at the bar?
It happened to me on New Years Eve, so I came up with a cunning plan. Fat people (and I mean REAL heffers, not just slightly overweight) have to buy TWO tickets, as they take up more space.
Surely it would work like that from a health and safety point of view. You can only have a certain number of people in a pub/club, and if half the people are real chunkers, then there is less room left for everyone else.
Thoughts?
T'was funny.
And I bet you were SO offended when Goaty came out with that line a few months ago about "beat you like a red-headed stepchild".
Very much, yes.
So much so I now use that line myself, in fact.
And it goes down well every time.
"And what's wrong with being a ginger stepchild", and I laughed until I shat myself.

Well put. A joke is a joke. End of story.
There's a difference, in my book, between telling a joke for the humour of it, and any malicious intent.
If only more people could distinguish between the two!
Damn right!
I've got ginger hair, so I have had the mick ripped out of me enough during my school years, but if it makes me laugh, I don't care HOW rude it is.
The same for when I tell jokes. If I think it's funny, I'll say it, simple as that. If the listened has an issue with it, that's their problem, not mine!
> Hey hey. You won't take the ripp out of a disabled person now would you? so
> don't do it to the overweight.
I often have. Black, white, Irish, Jewish (I am of Jewish descent myself), disabled - whatever.
A joke is a joke, and I treat it as such. I can find the humour in anything, without it reflecting in any way my personal views on race/religion/ability.
It's like the woman who ran out of a Bernard Manning show because he was ridiculing fat people. I mean, come on!
