And, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, given the great latitude that has been allowed so far, don’t be surprised if this thread is closed permanently without further warning if there is just one more offensive post.
What is to be considered offensive: strong language; denigrating comments; terms of affection or even compliments?
Are we speaking of being offensive to the majority, or the minority?
Ife we are speaking of the majority, then who protects the minority from the majority?
Hey!..it’s Friday!!!..I guess PK would say that I’m in a jolly mood…but, if it snows this afternoon, I’ll be jolly pissed off!
Offensive in the strict sense of aggressive or attacking language, as well as the more common usage of language which offends someone.
My memory may be failing me (and according to my wife it, like other parts of me, is), but I don’t recall mod intervention being necessary in any thread, and least of all this one, for offensive terms of affection or even compliments. 
Offensive as judged objectively by the mods, which certainly will not be on the basis of a given thin-skinned poster being upset by another poster’s comment.
We are speaking of the mods, who are an oppressed and unappreciated minority, but who need no protection for we are the power and the glory, Amen!.
Perhaps from each other… I hope there is no bickering going on there…“I want to ban him!”…“NO! you can’t, I do!”…Well, okay, then, as long as you allow me to lock the thread, this time!"…
Not a chance.
All is sweetness and light in the mod room, where harmony and consensus reign. Especially in relation to this thread.
Aaah, how sweet! You’ve brought a nice, warm, reassuring glow to my tummy, not unlike hot soup on a very cold day!
He never said what the harmony and consensus actually were. For all you know we might unanimously hate you all!
Yes, I have heard that the unifying effect of a shared hate figure sometimes results in queer bed-fellows…I guess you chaps are the proof!
Of the few forums I am a member of its fairly clear to me that once the abuse has died down a little reasonable debate follows. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Mr Knacker may well be misinformed, may well be wrong on certain things but he ain’t wrong on everything. Give the bloke some respect, he does after all give a shit about the 1000 Argentine body bags (combat and suicide) resulting from this conflict.
This fact alone puts him above most.
As the ultimate arbiter of all things Mod, I can honestly say that this thread or section has not been discussed in the Mod room recently, although it has, in the past, been the subject of much debate.
I have an interest in the Falklands room as Ive been there, and due to visit them again later this year.
Lets keep a level head here guys.
Those comments of mine were not intended to be taken seriously, and if I have in anyway upset any of thems whose task is thankless, then I apologise unreservedly.
Me old marra, I don’t take any of your comments seriously, nor probably do the rest of the mods, or other members.
Except your serious comments, which are seen to be serious by their nature and context, and which contribute usefully to the knowledge on this forum.
There is no need for an apology, unreserved or slighty reserved or even marginally qualified, for you have not upset those of us who endure our thankless task as the path of martyrdom to eternal salvation. We must endure other and far greater trials than you can impose to purify ourselves for heaven.
Well, as we are all kissing and making up, you may kiss me on both cheeks, providing you restrict them to the face in the French fashion - non of your MOD style of cheek-kissing, please.
At the risk of sending this suddenly harmonious forum off on a tangent, I don’t do French.
Kissing, cutlets, windows, widows, knickers, maids, and so on.
Alright, maybe I’ll do the odd French maid and maybe a young French widow, but they have to beg for it.
Admire a chap who takes the odd risk.

They’d have to be! :lol:
French women are overrated.
I can kiss all your…wifes/girlfriends, in every places and locations, no problem with that.
Speaking of kissing wives and girlfriends, is this PTSD?
I’ve been training my missus to direct me about the fridge. This morning she put said training into practise to direct me to the bacon.:
She “Open fridge door!..down, six o’clock bottom chiller-shelf!..left, 9o’clock, Pastrami…”
Me, rudely interrupting “Pastrami?..what the fuck is fucking Pastrami?..Again!”
She “Open fridge door…down, 6o’clock…bottom shelf, food-chiller…open chiller…left, 9o’clock…packet of smoked, diced bacon…beneath packet, bacon… in Weightwatchers packet!”
Me “Fucking Weightwatchers?..Do you think I’m quear or something?..I want man’s bacon!..I need to keep up my energy levels!..how else am I to keep you pleased?”
Then I woke to my missus placing gentle kisses on my brow.
As I focussed on her beautiful, smiling face she said
“Good morning, darling!..did you sleep well?”
Me “Yes, thank you, darling!..would you like me to prepare breakfast?”
She " Oh, yes please, darling!"
Me “Bacon in the bottom of the fridge, in the Weightwatchers packet, is it?”
“Yes, darling”
“Wont be long!..just take quick shower first!”
“Lovely!”
So, which one was the dream?
This just goes to show that we can all be kissy huggy happy in this thread, so how about the regular posters keep that up?
Or I’ll post a picture of the location PK can kiss my wife, and I guarantee that everyone will have a problem with that.
Sounds like the latter part of 32bravos story… it’s too surreal!
