A temp job I had was in the post room of a car-park fine firm.
We had four trays: £30 cheques, £60 cheques, cash (call the manager) and other.

Our job was to open the post, sort it.

We got some sights - the one that cleared the room was the cheque someone had quite literally wiped their arse on, the little old lady who sent in a £5 note with a sincere apology that she couldn't afford it in one hit on her pension and a request to pay in installments with that as the start, the cheque someone had stapled a hundred times to the ticket, rending it void, etc, but by far my favourite was a simple note attached to the ticket and cheque, saying "Seriously, who the fuck are you? Tony Blair's personal fucking monkey?"

The ticket read "Time & Date Of Issue: 0901 01-01-00"

( Wicca'd Witch needs ideas for a new sig on..., Mon 28 Jan 2013, 12:55, closed)

Let me see if I've got this right, 'cause, you know, misunderstanding and that
Some internet random describes being subject to parking fines (abstractly) as being 'financially raped' and you get your tent-sized knickers in a twist, but your husband repeatedly jokes about raping children on exactly the same messageboard and that's fine because of, you know, context.

Have I accurately summed up the situation?
( emvee cruor deo cruoris, Mon 28 Jan 2013, 14:34, closed)

No you've not.
Three out of the four posts you linked were taken out of context - and in context they are mildly amusing comments on the actions and utter lack of self-awareness made by the OPs in question - and they are not lazy analogies. They are not analogies at all.

The fourth one (the one you refer to) is fucking stupid. I think I was quite clear about that. He's sat in the room - I'm not going to have a domestic online just so you can have a little powerwank over it.

My point to the OP was that he didn't actually make a joke. It wasn't a joke. It was an off the cuff analogy that could have been made in a way that didn't include rape. It was lazy.

As I have said, if you want to prove me a hypocrite, provide evidence that I've used 'rape' as an analogy. I'd like to hope that I haven't. I've joked about my rape in the past, because that's how I dealt with the shit I went through. Without the humour, I'd still be a victim. However, I will go on record as saying that when it is done for a cheap laugh, it cheapens everyone involved. I'm not going to stop anyone from doing it, but I will say something when it is brought to my attention. Because I think the message bears repeating, especially considering the way society as a whole approaches the topic of rape and sexual assault. I'd like to think that nobody on here is thick enough to think that rape is ok - seriously, with the exception of a very, very small minority on here, I think most people agree that rape is Not A Good Thing.

There is a culture on b3ta, however - and the internet as a whole - where we lazily use the term 'rape'. People claiming that their facebook status has been 'fraped' is one of them. People on youtube who say they want to 'rape that girl's tits', or the insults that get thrown at online gamers (and it's mainly at women, it has to be said) where 11 year old kids tell you that they are going to hunt you down and gang rape you. It lessens the shock of something utterly, utterly inhumane - something that I wouldn't wish on anyone, ever.

At best it's lazy. At it's worst, it is something that can trigger traumatic flashbacks. I'm not saying it's impossible to make the subject of rape into a joke, it's just fucking difficult - and when a rape survivor tells you that he/she does not find the joke funny, then you need to examine the joke itself and ask yourself if there is a better way to make people laugh.

I'm sorry that you are so eager to have a dig at Badger that you miss the actual point being made, and thought it better to carry on with the playground bromance you and Badger have going on. As for my 'tent sized' knickers being in a twist...I wouldn't worry about that. I rarely wear any.
( Wicca'd Witch needs ideas for a new sig on..., Mon 28 Jan 2013, 19:19, closed)

I'm struggling to see the point being made
See, I did the same search I did on Badger on myself. I found that I referred to the "click for bigger" on an image I did in 2007 as "omg emvee raped my monitor sized" (it's sadly offline now but in my defence it was very, very big). There's one which you could totally take out of context should you want:
www.b3ta.com/questions/adverts/post700912

Other than that? There's one where I replied to Badger when he'd gone off on a tangent about raping postboxes, because that's a humorous analogy, obviously. There's one where I echoed back WaspBox's words after he joked about the laws of the Old Testament including not raping your neighbour's ass. There's one where I replied to some idiot who has "Its not rape if she cums first" as his signature and there's one where I'm literally describing the (disturbing) image posted. You could probably find more if you dig deeper, but in each case I limited myself to the first page of results.

Badger had a bunch of offhand references to raping children and babies. Just saying. That's not even including the phrases "Rob fingers kids" and "ringofyre fucks eight year olds", both of which he's fond of. If you think b3ta has a culture of rape humour that's unacceptable, then I'm not going to argue with you because it's not really a well that I plumb that often.

I just think that it's odd that you don't mind your husband joking about rape as in an actual "raping the kids" rape analogy on this messageboard on a weekly basis yet you take exception to someone using the word in a financial sense because as a rape survivor to you that's "unacceptable"?

I'm genuinely curious where you draw the line?

The post in question is not a rape joke so a debate about the excusability of rape humour is entirely besides the point. The post is offensive because it hijacks the word "rape" - in its entirely conventional sense of a violent sexual violation - to exaggerate the seriousness of something trivial. It is using rape purely to sound edgy. It is utterly dickish and reprehensible.

It's not that they're likening said devastation to a particularly abhorrent sexual assault - they're legitimately using 'rape' to convey a different meaning altogether (fairly frequently, too, according to Google). Dictionary.com - for what it's worth - offers,

...an act of plunder, violent seizure, or abuse; despoliation; violation: the rape of the countryside.

Most dictionaries (including the OED) mention something along similar lines. One word, multiple - distinct - meanings, the use of which should not belittle or trivialise the horror of its primary meaning. That said, I would probably avoid using it in the presence of someone who found the term uncomfortable.

No-one should feel obliged to apologise for other people's ignorance; if they used the word correctly - ie, in a manner which is supported by decent, heavyweight dictionaries, as the entirely nonsexual plunder/despoil definition is - they really did nothing wrong.

Look, I'm not suggesting people go around actively forcing 'rape' into sentences purely to seem offensive whilst technically not being offensive - see 'niggardly' and 'the boy president' in relation to Obama - but people who use its secondary/tertiary/whatever meaning aren't necessarily doing it just to be assholes.

Idiots...the lot of you.
If you receive a parking fine from any entity other than a local council, TfL, a police force or any other state run organisation - YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PAY IT.

Private parking firms (the one's who patrol store car-parks and 'private' land') have zero authority to collect fines from you. They may scare you with threatening letters etc - but the truth of the matter is as follows:

A fine issued by a private parking company is simply an 'invoice', based on your alleged breaching of their 'terms and conditions of parking' - which you'll see on the car park's signage. These companies can only inform the registered keeper of the vehicle of the alleged outstanding amount. However, in contract law, the basis of offer and acceptance is based on individual acceptance of a set of terms. So, to get out of ALL parking fines issued by private companies, simply state:

"Dear Rip-off Cunt Merchant (who prey on the feeble-minded and ignorant),

I have received a request for payment today but I have to inform you that your information is incorrect. I was not the driver of the vehicle in question at the time of the alleged breach, nor am I under any legal obligation to inform you of who the driver was.

I do not accept your invoice and I will not be paying. Please refrain from writing to me again and any further attempts to extort monies from me will be reported to the relevant authorities as harassment

Yours etc."

These people are powerless to locate the driver (unlike the police who you have to declare the driver to, and unlike councils who can issue state-sanctioned fines against to registered keeper), therefore they cannot then prosecute. If they threaten with court action, then encourage them. They'll have to take you to court AND win their case (which is highly unlikely), before they can legally recover any monies. And as the cost of initiating court action falls on them (and is far higher than the fine they're chasing), they literally will not bother.

Now that clamping and towing from private land has been banned - these companies can't clamp or remove and demand payment before your vehicle is released. So their main revenue stream has been stopped. Who to thank for this new law to stop the daylight robbery that was private clamping firms? The Daily Mail and your friendly Conservative Govenment.

tldr? You're an ignorant, shit-scared moron if you pay any private parking company any money.
