When a person's feelings have been hurt, that's when I would feel that the comedy has gone too far.
I reckon that is when the fun is just starting...

Its the same way when about a day after some sort of tragedy you'll get a joke txted to you about it. In some cases hours afterwards, like when MJ kicked the bucket.

A joke is a joke, simple as that.

You either laugh, or you don't. If you find it funny, then great. If not, then you just move on.

This video proves why Ian Hyland of The News Of The World is a pleb. It also features the comedian I mentioned earlier. Watch.

Hyland reminds me of the old Manning rules of it was alright to have a go at the blacks, but making jokes about Tampons was distasteful.

And that's why nobody can stand to be around you for more than a couple of minutes at a time, Harry.

The man said he did not try to offend the player. He just threw his banana in anger and it happened to fall near Roberto Carlos by chance. We found no racist intent.

But aswell as being a national treasure for being a world class athlete & a only 19 year old lass, she hasn't done owt to hurt anyone.
So you can only make a joke about someone, if they've done something to hurt someone else?

You moron.

Well, not exactly, but if they deserve it, it's more funny, because you feel negativity towards them, therefore kind of agree with the joke, say if someone made a joke about Lily Allen or Jordan, people would laugh, but a joke about Meatloaf? Nah, he's a good lad.

You don't see repeats of In Sickness and In health anymore, because of the racist things that Alf Garnett says. Even though the comedy is derived from the fact he is so bigoted. Its PC gone mad I tell you.
Seriously as soon as I first posted in this thread the first thing I did was look up some classic Alf Garnett on youtube and it pisses over pretty much any modern comedy imo.

It was funny imo because Alf was a massive send up of the type of people that were still around at the time and he almost always looked the fool.

Some classic Alf Garnett NOT FOR THE PC BRIGADE OR EASILY OFFENDED YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Yeah, but what if i'm a Lily Allen fanboy and consider her a national tresure?

Horses for courses son. And secondly, that swimmer does deserve it, because she has a face for radio, yet appeared on televisions nationwide frequently - hence the jokes.

Or the joke, i've never heard anyone make it, other than the Scotch tosser.

What was she supposed to do, call her career a day because of some TV cameras? Come off it.

What should Frankie Boyle do, call his career a day because some half aborted foetus faced swimmer was offended?
