My Mrs has just informed me that she has managed to turn my 13 year old lads new Spurs shirt bright pink in the washing machine, and said child is expecting to wear the shirt for today's game.
I predict carnage when he finds out!
Clearly, I should trade the daft mare in but what are his options?

It's just a bit of banter, tongue in cheek, Self Righteous Brothers etc. Some people just aren't happy unless they're being offended and crying about it.

The problem is, for me at least, having a family surrounded by alcoholics I can think of numerous real life incidents that make such quips, uneasy to say the least.

Ace everyone has their own buttons that are no doubt pushable. He might have a mother who has false teeth on account of her husbands "off day"

Maybe that's the case and if so I'm sorry about that. Truth is I had 'handy dad' problems in my house growing up, we all process things in different ways. If he can't realise that half of my posts on here are character based largesse rather than actual opinions then what can I do. I'm a regular on here and virtually everyone else seems to know I'm only mucking about. I don't make posts to deliberately antagonise 4za, far from it, but he seems to regularly pop up passing judgement on me. All I'm saying is if it's not his cup of tea why not just filter me instead of letting it bother him and making a fuss all the time. It's a rich tapestry in here, it's inevitable we're not all gonna get on, have the same sense of humour, sensitivity thresholds etc.

Ace its different stokes for different folks. It might be the humour is taboo in today's world. For fear young "lads" normalise things. I'm possibly more sympathetic to forzas sensitivity than questionable bantz.

My best mate and I have, for about 20 odd years, written character based humour (the same characters the whole way through, that we created at 6th form), most of which humorously charicatures the petty, drunken, unsuccessful, domestically violent, cardboard gangster types we grew up amongst. Think of how a character like Alf Garnett is outwardly bigoted with the sole purpose being to demonstrate how ridiculous such bigotry really is. The audience laughs at him, not with him. My 'Ace' shenanigans are really just an extension of what me & my mate have always done, though I'm in no doubt that doesn't translate as well in written word on here and sometimes the line gets crossed. Anyway, different strokes for different folks as you say.
