A man walks into a complaints department. He says 'my wife is a slut'.
Don't tell everyone or they will all want one.

APOLOGIES FIRSTHAND BEFORE I CONTINUE...
two arabs walk into a clothing store. one picks up a rucksack and tries it on. he turns to his mate and says: "does my bomb look big in this?" 
LIKE I SAID, APOLOGIES...

STICKING WITH THE POOR TASTE, I'M SURE YOU'VE ALL HEARD THIS ONE BY NOW (I'VE HAD THIS ONE TEXT TO ME ABOUT 20 TIMES SO FAR):
apparently osama bin laden is a 100% official chocoholic! yup - tis true. especially smarties...... the other week, he got through 3 tubes... and then finished off with a double decker.
(YES, I AM GOING TO HELL FOR THIS.)

I kept receiving an even worse one, which I think is seriously sick - What's the difference between London commuters and Smarties? Smarties don't melt in the tube.
Post by: goldencup on July 31, 2005, 09:58:22 am
I don't know why I even posted that one as it's so bad - once again, I wish we could edit our own posts.
The other one I've receiving is:
Beauty parlours up and down the country are worried about a loss of income now that the Metropolitan Police are doing Brazilians for nothing.
Post by: wjp666 on July 31, 2005, 05:12:37 pm
sick? twisted? yup - but we'd be lying if things like this it don provoke a dastardly smile once every now and again (such as the brazilian one above.) its the ones with ZERO thought gone into them that annoy me... i had one on my phone last week which read, quite word for word: WHY DO IRAQI'S TRAVEL ON BUSES IN LONDON? A./ WHO CARES, BANG, YOUR DEAD!!!! i'm sure you'll agree: hilarious.
yes, its that sorta thing that offends me. if youre gonna pick on sick, twisted subject matter, at least have the dignity to make it worthwhile. lack of imagination is the worst in low-low taste. happens every 'disaster' though... oh well.

bounty - i searched the net after your request, and this is the best it had to offer.
Q: Whats the quickest way from Glasgow to Edinburgh?
A: Just shoot through Dunblane!
funny? no, not really. but hey... do i get a point???

Oh dear, this one cracked a smile... only briefly though.
A boy and a cnild-murderer are out at night, walking towards the forest.
The boy says, "It's dark! I don't like it! I'm scared!"
The child-murderer says, "You're scared! I've got to walk back out of here on my own!"

I think Bounty was suggesting that he finds this thread in bad taste and when he asked whether anyone knew a joke about murdered children he wondered how low jokes could go.
I don't think he actually wanted to hear any. I'm not judging anyone, i loved the "does my bomb look big in this" joke as well. I'm just picking up on Bounty's tone and intention. Am I right Bounty?

i think what offends me most about this whole bad-taste-disastaer joke thing is this: A./ 99% are simply not funny and not worth the effort, and thought up braindead night-shift truckers on the cb to their mates. and B./ people LET THEMSELVES get so offended at them... EXAMPLE: the amount of people i've seen get irate at the old princess diana stuff is ridiculous. i've had a couple of people i've known die in seriously grissly ways involving motor vehicles and i choose for it not to affect me because these things simply happen EVERYWHERE (and not just to the people we see get news coverage on tv who we pretend to have real emotional links to), yet just because this person was famous (and/or got the front page of the Sun), it invokes some kind of moral crusade out of joe-public.
riiiiight - time for a valium.

well, there are some sweet jokes out there involving the titanic, the tsunami and other such morbid stuff (plus: more than a few michael jackson ones have cropped up on here from time to time) - plenty of kids were involved there.
its not that i dont agree with you mr. h, its just i dont like to limit anybody to certain things. a few people liked the 'bomb' joke a few days back... would it have instantly been deemed unfunny if, say, a couple of kids were involved in the blast? hmm... who knows.
just me, thats all.

Spike Milligan was the master of bad jokes. He once said, 'I hope Harry Secombe dies before me so he can't sing at my funeral'.

Spike famously wanted the following epitaph on his grave:
"I told you I was ill"

Great moment in 'Tales of the City':
Edgar Halcyon (who has just discovered he's dying): What would your last words be?
Anna Madrigal: 'Oh sh*t'?
