Aled 570 Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Guys i been a fan of the Pogues since i was a wee lad and they had to change their name from Pogue Mahone (Gaelic for Kiss my ass) to The Pogues, bet Shane Macgowan is really worried about this could it mean that a load of his other classics get banned from sale...... Big Brother is watching you, PC gone mad i'm going for a Fag!. LOL Cheers Aled Quote Link to post Share on other sites
masmiffy 82 Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 What's going to happen to mr. Brains Faggots? Are they going to call them Mr. Brains Lumps of meat with gravy? What about in the chippy. "Hi, can I have chips, mushy peas and some of those meat lumps with gravy!" It could get even worse, Black pudding will be called 'Ethnic' pudding, Ginger beer will have to be called 'Ginger flavoured soft drink, (because of the rhyming slang) etc. etc. What a load of bo**ocks! You won't be able to speak in english, in this country before long! Depends where you live mate but some areas of Great Britian [pc version was gonna say ENGLAND] are not that ENGLISH now!

BlueCoyote 0 Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 something i have noticed is the ones beating our asses to be PC are not offended but worried ABOUT offending... couple weeks ago a girl in another chat was joking about officially being a "red neck" because she hit a deer on her way home and didnt see a reason to waste meat when she had two hungry Alaskan huskies at home.... one guy, very much an upper class, middle aged white guy got royally offended for all the rednecks in the south.... the more we are PC the longer there will be a gap between "different" people... time to get over it, accept it as history and just decide who you like and who you want as a friend based on if they are good characters or not.... just an idea Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some parts of Wales and Scotland (possible N. Ireland i dont know) have never been and still aren't very English, well linguistically speaking anyway.....(Sorry masmiffy couldnt resist that one LOL ) Cheers Aled Quote Link to post Share on other sites
