Three Drunks in a Chip Shop Page 2

This is all a bit bizarre. If you need to be told the songs then you don't get the joke. 'Fry me a kipper, cos i fried a kipper over you' - if you don't see that's Cry me a river then you're either younger than fifteen years old, not a native english speaker, don't have a television or are not very observant.

The sheet music line was great deadpan - much funnier than the original piece. I don't want to say anymore but it's difficult for me to believe that anyone was really offended by this.

If so then you're in a different plaice to me.

Its not a case of being offended, if you read what has been said it was just a little advice on how to write up the sketch properly. Of course hearing it you would instantly get the joke, but as a reader you might not instantly get it; all the information should be contained within the sketch, thats how you write up a sketch; you dont leave the nuts and bolts information at all ambiguous. It is a writing tip that Jerf for some reason took umbrage to.

I didn't get the 'Cry me a river' and I don't fall into the demographics, Godot

So I must be unobservant.

PS I did get the "It's my party."

Thanks Blenkinsop, I have just done that on edit, but if you don't know the title either?

SlagA I think you are just looking for a row mate, your comments are unjust and don't make sense.This site has immense potential and you are turning it into the teletubbies. I don't think you are up to the job, I should have it, and now formally apply.

Jerf I think you have to send in a CV.

I swear you must read different posts to the rest of us Jerf!

Slagg has been nothing but supportive and level headed. You seem to take things very personally.

It strikes me that Jerf is between a rock and a hard plaice.

Some of his cod-philosophising is annoying though and I think he deserves a battering for that.

I like Jerf and his stuff!

I think there is far too much carping about Jerf at the mo!

You're just fishing for compliments.

Cod love me, this is not the plaice you prawn! (if that's an insult I take it back unreservedly as it would cut me through to the roe to insult a fellow
BSG'er!)

Frankie, you're always so chipper.

SlagA I hope the gentleman whom called me a twat, is publicly admonished, or one may arrive at the conclusion that you are biased

I feel quite battered

Jerf, there is a big difference between calling someone a twat, and continually being antagonistic, despite numerous warnings, in almost every post one makes.

But there is a cod of conduct we must try to stick to.
Obviously you can't apeas everyone, but some comments can curry ambiguous vibes and create a danger of ensuing scraps, in which people end up getting battered.
Hopefully certain comments will be taken back, and this whole issue will fritter away. If not, said comments can be taken by said offender and shoved up his rissole.
