Ohhhh.
Well, he'd have to put a lot more than that in there. Or it'd be shite.

Actually it's a myth that it's a myth. Although the rhyme doesn't appear to date from as far back as the Bubonic Plague, its exact roots and original meaning are unknown. There are equal arguments for and against plagues being its topic.

Elliot you asked two questions and then gave your answers - if that is genuinely questioning someone then Michael Parkinson would have needed no guests. Personally I couldn't give a flying fig what you think about jews and nazis or game scenarios but you told me anyway.
The idea that genocide is degenerated into a kids game, is potentially an excellent subject for humour. But in a, what the f**k kind of way.
Too see it in real life, and find it funny I find perverse. I suppose eating raw chicken will kill ya, but it's ok if you roast it.
In the same way I don't roll on the floor with laughter watching Maddy news items, but I do find a well structured joke on the subject to be funny.
I also suspect, some people on this forum, say controversial/offensive stuff for shits and giggles.

Yeah, but it could quite easily be part of a single scene in a show. Very much his style, in terms of the inappropriateness of it.
Anyway! We diverse. It was bloody hilarious.

Is it? How utterly confusing.

Actually that was a general response. Y'know, to the whole board? If you didn't care what I thought then you skip the parts you don't want to read. Simple, see.

I'm afraid you are right and I really am getting very tired of it

Pretty sure he asked a genuine question, then went on to voice his own opinion on the scenario to the whole board, noting the points others have made, along the way...?
Quote: Gavin @ June 24 2008, 6:39 PM BSThow come?
His sentence was self explanatory wasn't it?
I am afraid you may soon be tired of the enitre internet, most of whats on TV, and our gouvernment.

Pardon? What?
Aaron is the crowned prince of that.
But at least you know when he's doing it.
Quote: Charly @ June 24 2008, 5:51 PM BSTWhat was that?
Sorry, I know nothing.What is it with the myth that Jewish people are obsessed with money?
Has anyone who says this met a Big Brother contestant?
People say the Scottish, and Yorkshire people are miserly with money - is this any less offensive?

Thank you Aaron. Honestly Alan I wasn't trying to offend you or anyone, just explaining my position and ideas - likewise is done across the forums.
