@ Lord_majerius: I thought you went a little over the line too. That said, someone called you on it, you removed them and apologized. If anyone still wants to call you names I'll stand up in your defense. You seem like a good guy to me.

You're absolutely right on that last. Some of your first jokes were over the line in my book, but some of the others were within the bounds of good taste and some were downright funny.

I'll conclude with this joke.

A Jewish lady calls the newspaper and asks for the obituary section. The obit guy asks, "What can I do for you?" "I'd like to place an obituary." "Awright, how would you like it to read?" "Irving Cohen died." "That's it? Irving Cohen died?" "That's it." "But you get four lines in the obit. It's included in the price." "All right. Irving Cohen died... Cadillac for sale."
And that was a good one!

Well humour isn't necessarily always benign, it can be very nasty too. I don't find all jokes funny but since there seems to be 'open policy' concerning all types of jokes here, there's really no reason to sensure.

You might be a Jewish Redneck if....
1. You light your Shabbos candles from your cigarette
2. Your belt buckle is bigger than your Kippah
3. Instead of a noisemaker, you've fired a shotgun at the sound of Haman's name
4. You have a gun rack in your Sukkah
5. You think KKK is a symbol for Really Really Kosher
6. You think marrying your first cousin is required according to Jewish Law
7. You don't ride on Shabbat because your car is up on blocks
9 . You are saving a bottle of Mogen David for some special occasion
10. You think a good Bar Mitzvah gift is time shared on your hunting lease.

I'll tell you how I see it.

You were out of order in the Bush thread and refused to heed many attempts by numerous people including one of your countrymen to see common sense and act accordingly.

You now decide to push the boundaries further as a result of what you perceived to be your peer group acting unreasonably toward you and in so doing create a thread about people of the Jewish faith....your ashtray joke (archived for posterity) is the most disgusting and revolting thing I have ever had the misfortune to see on this forum.

Much to your credit (sadly) you have managed to get many valued members of this community unwittingly involved and I am confident when some of them see how this thread has degenerated into what it has, they may well be having thoughts on the matter.

All of this is based on your twisted perception of something born out of frustration garnered from another thread and sold to the community as acceptable under the guise of 'open policy'.

I do not profess to know Neals mind but it is well seeing he is away for a few days.

It will be interesting to see if he has a viewpoint on his return.

Just my humble opinion of course, but everything is suitably archived...even the deletions.

Yes and it's so old and not funny. However I'm surprised you'd find that bad considering how you like to refer to black people as monkeys.

Yes I deleted one picture because NeonSamurai asked me to. Didn't really have to, I mean, free speech and all but thought I'd oblige. You see I am a nice guy and can see the other side of the issue as well.

You mean from inside the ash tray?
Doubt it.

P.S. That was not a joke.

So?
Are you racist against German people now? You think you are somehow entitled to make jokes about the Holocaust while I am not entitled to criticize that? Tell us more about the funny things going on in your head, as THIS could actually be amusing.

I feel so dirty now. I'm going to take a shower. (I know you're not talking about me, just the participation part)

I'm 1/4 Scotch-Irish, 1/4 Ukrainian Pole, and 1/2 British, which makes me a Redneck-Polak-Limey, so about 75% of this thread is about me and I found 100% of it funny.

If we can't laugh at our selves who can we laugh at...

Uh-oh. That means some of my jokes are out of line as well. I apologize for any offence, Jim. I even spelled offense with a "c" to be extra nice
Seriously, though, I am very sorry if I have offended you, and I shall remove the material post-haste.

@Jason and James

I am not attempting to aportion blame to those who became 'unwittingly' involved.

I believe it is obvious who the primary instigator is.

@Chris

Appreciated mate.

un·wit·ting

–adjective
1. inadvertent; unintentional; accidental: His insult, though unwitting, pained her.

2. not knowing; unaware; ignorant; oblivious; unconscious: an unwitting person.
