I would. It's a time when someone particularly needs cheering up, ain't it?

You'd think so, but no. Most people (in this country especially) would find it offensive and disrespectful.

I believe there was one sympathy card published a while ago that made some sort of very light-hearted, tame gag. I can't remember what it was but it was very tame indeed, something to do with an angel snapping the g string on his harp or something - and it caused outrage. It was pulled from the shelves immediately.

Thanks for sharing Lee, oh and the cards info too.

No bother Lee, I'll send you that tin of Dulux Herpes Scab Green I promised.

There's an advert in the Sun today that Ladbroke's casino adds were banned due to one complaint.

They were asking the complainer to come forward so they could give them a hug and some flowers.

It's one of the funniest things on TV, bastards.

I'd like to kick the person who complained in the fanny / nuts. Then I'd like to kick the person who made the decision to pull the ads in the fanny / nuts.

In what strange, alternative universe can those adverts be seen as offensive for f**k's sake? WANKERS!!!!!!

Stuff like that really boils my piss.

Well it must have been the advertising standards council.

I am now going to insult a South African and urinate on a shark.

Take that political correctness (even if I don't believe you exist).

Er, I was joking (as you first presumed).
