You don't see Badge saying that he doesn't see thread titles called 'Things you don't see much of thesedays...' anymore.

Laughing out loud

I wish I'd thought of that.

Never seen a black professional snooker player

Quote: Badge @ January 28 2012, 2:37 PM GMT

I think there are already dozens of "I'm not a racist, but" threads.

Funny names for a black snooker player - start now!

Um, Hurricane Katrina Higgins? Errr

Speaking of BCG favourite Ricky Gervais, on one of his podcasts, Karl said 'you don't see any oriental homeless people'.

Unless of course one were to go to China, where I imagine there's thousands of them. Karl was genuinely pretty funny, until it became obvious that he's a complicit stooge.

Last year saw the first afro-carribean competitor in the Tour de France, which has only been going for a hundred years.

Perhaps it's because they don't let you ride on the pavements.

You don't see many people paraphrasing Oscar Wilde thesedays...

Door-to-door encyclopaedia salesmen. No wonder we're all so f**king stupid.

You don't see much of Ricky Gervais doing his "filthy queer" character thesedays.

Is that the new Miss Marple?

Laughing out loud Or stop for a spliff every 5 miles, carry a ghetto blaster on their knee and put a can of Red Stripe in the drinks holder.

You just don't see that kind of overt racism much thesedays.

There's probably some kind of joke to be made about the idea of a door-to-door Wikipedia salesman here... but I really can't be arsed to work one out. Which is why I'll never write for The
Now Show

Wouldn't that have just been fantastic though?

The rag and bone man.

I remember the Rag and Bone man when I was a kid. For years he used to ride around on a cart, being pulled by a miserable-looking little black pony. Then one day, when I was about 19, he stopped coming around, because some animal rights people had got into his yard at night and stolen/rescued the pony.

*sigh* must I do everything for you?

'Good morning, I'm a door to door Wikipedia salesman, can I come in and play with your kids?'

Yes, well Kipper steadfastly refuses to claim his posts are "ironic" in a bid to cover himself. Especially since he discovered that many of those BBC poofta comedians use irony.
