Fellow Hoggers...........
Is this recent joke I have posted, that, bad, distasteful, vile, rude, disgusting, bad words, nudity, porn, crude or anything,
else "so bad" it has been demoted to the attic section. For goodness sake it is just a funny joke. I have posted this, to try
to find out who does find it unfit for the normal joke section in "General Chit Chat" in which I have posted many many
jokes with over a million views? I do appreciate that some stuff is for the attic but this to me as an adult reasonable
"Englishman" is just an adult joke and an insult to me, to have banned, to a less popular section. Surely we hear similar,
and a lot worse jokes on the TV regularly.........we do in the UK. I know I will get usual suspects telling me to leave the
forum and use English forums, if I am dissatisfied.....BUT........in this case I think ADMIN'S censoring is pathetically old
fashioned, Victorian and absolutely unnecessary in IMHHO.......

For goodness sake it's 2017 not 1837.....I would love to know if I am the only Hogger who thinks this is decent enough
for the General Chit Chit Chat section??????

Cheers and Sad Beers

Graham, he is a wanker, the old school, you only have to look at the ad sites on the reply, russian dating sites etc, pay him no attention, hasn't the guts to front you/ us., i have had several sent to the ATTIC, mainly of a political persuasion, Guess he is a Republican.

Well that was my first visit to the Attic, to find the offending post. Huh?? I'm sure I've seen more offensive stories here. I had heard that one before. Graham, keep posting.

Thanks you fellers, guys, men, lads, I am chuffed to bits you have spoken out for me and not been the passive majority.
I was beginning to think the "Joke" was indecent........It's not as if I posted it, in the, Children's Sunday school magazine is it??


Thanks again....to the three of you...

I heard that joke over 10 years ago...thought it was funny then, and still do. I don't find it offensive in any way. You have to remember...We have become so PC that EVERYTHING offends someone! I actually copied and pasted the joke on my Facebook page, thank you!

10 years? Probably more than 20.

Graham,

I read your joke among other things you've posted or commented about here on the Hog. As a woman, I did not find your joke offensive, just funny. Please don't let one person's opinion stop you from posting or sharing your opinion with others here. Your advice is too valuable to others to go.
Laura.

No reason for it being moved to the Attic. Except to share it with the Hogs that don't subscribe to the General Chit Chat section.

i thought it was a cute joke and laughed at it; life went on.
However you ask about the appropriateness of the joke and here is the bind.
This is nothing less than a sociopathic twist upon the ubiquitous "dumb blond joke".
As such it is a sexist attack on men in general and must be sent to the attic under the zero-tolerance rule.

To all you people who have bothered to take the time to support this post and my objection, I thank you very much indeed.
To me instances like this are very important, I am not saying this joke is important, that would be ridiculous, but to be pushed
aside and and told my actions deserve to be downtrodden and regraded by someone else is important to me. If we go through
life, being told our rights are not good and proper, by someone like admin, who, may I say "we pay his wages", is downright
wrong, in my humble opinion. We are not naughty children being told to go and stand in the corner because he says so and he should realise, after all you good people have responded and do a "U turn and put the joke back where it was intended to be and started off, in the General Chit Chat Section.

Thanks again for your support, I am chuffed (delighted) to bits,

Cheers and Beers to all of you above...

Graham\098/

PS My love and best wishes to you and yours, Cockney Greg, (above) As a personal friend I know you are a Londoner and live in London. I wish you all the very, very best and congratulate you and all Londoners for the way you all acted and pulled together,
in the two attacks on our wonderful, great and important Capital City.(gt098)
