# aye
It's not so much that I think the subject should not be mentioned, just that if you're going to use it, at least make sure your joke contains genuine humour.

# meh
I find the whole notion of a huge, celebrity and newspaper endorsed reward repulsively self-serving, so I shopped my thoughts below


Criticise on the actual thread if you would, you're just cluttering up this one unfairly...

# wasn't actually talking about your post.
Just sort of in general.
I'll go and have a look now.

# I can be as righteous as I like
I'm SO sorry for making one spelling error too. English is not my first language yet I have a degree in it, so I clearly know a hell of a lot more than you. Dickwad.

# That's the thing
I'm all for free speech and that, but I don't think shock is a substitute for humour.

# meh, you're not really for free speech are you then?
and shock can be a form of humour in itself.

# what part of free speech are you not clear about?

# er
she's telling people not to post jokes about the missing child thingy. that seems to be a contradiction with being 'for' free speech, no?

"Please stop posting shops about that poor Madeline kid."

# sorry, was having dinner
No contradiction at all. She's asking people to use their right to free speech in way that is respectful for her feelings.
If she was appealing to rob or to a mod to limit other people's free speech, then she would be against free speech.

# Your post made no sense.
Free speech is not the art of shocking someone as a replacement for humour. Tool.

# it made no sense because you didn't understand it
i'm saying that being for free speech and telling people what they can and can't post on here is incompatible. clear enough now?

Edit: tool? i just pointed out a contradiction in your supposed values and you resort to a childish insult? your high and mighty attitude doesn't look too credible really.

# Do I need you to patronise me any further?
I asked people not to post unfunny shit. Take note.
(Northern Lovely, Mon 14 May 2007, 16:38, archived)
# no the comment i was referring to was not about 'unfunny shit'
you specifically said no posts about "that madeline kid". you can't change what you said now, for it is written.

# Because 'that Madeline kid'
is the subject of the current piss-poor bandwagon.

If you have a problem with me, stick me on ignore, I have a pile of work to do and yet I'm wasting it talking to a cunt like you.

# cunt eh?
i hope you don't thave children...

# free speech is only a right
granted to you by the community you live in. How you will use it will be then used by the community to judge you.
