'wankers' twice in the simpsons

[souljacker]

What's really odd is that you'd never hear the word "cunt", not even from someone who regularly uses curse words. I've heard "fuck" used six times in every sentence, but never "cunt." That's how bad be rank it.

Apart from on the Sopranos, where it was used with superb effect.

it's nice that intelligent children get it it's a shame that you appearently don't...

Aggresive fucker, aren't you?

I don't have cable so I've never actually seen an eps of the Sopranos. I'm a seriously deprived soul. Anyone want to take up a collection?

 

[Santino]

i think you are putting your own marls on something which has none of it's own and professes none.

What? I really don't have a clue what you're talking about here.

I'd guess you've never seen Deadwood either then, you whoreson of a cunting cocksucker.

Who'd have thought Lovejoy could swear like that.

for interest - a recent uk survey placed broadcast expletives in the following order of offensiveness:

got to say, i'm amazed at how high 'wanker' is on that list.

. . . . and how low Jew, paki and nigger are. I am not comfortable with saying any of those out loud even in jest. I have no problem with cunt and motherfucker though (apart from being unimaginative). What a strange survey.

 

[Santino]

I wonder how the survey was done, and whether participants were given a list of words to put into order or had to come up with them by themselves. That would make an enormous difference.

I think it's (inclusively) a kids' show by virute of being shown at kid-friendly times and enjoyed by kids, whether or not Matt Groening or Fox ever meant it that way. Also, selling millions of pounds worth of merchandise to children, and then pretending that it's not a children's show would be immensely hypocritical (not sure if anyone's done that though).

Exactly. Not all cartoons are kids' shows (Futurama isn't, though my daughter loves it), but the Simpsons partially is. The Simpsons movie, for example, was shown at child-friendly times and loads and loads of kids went to see it.

What? I really don't have a clue what you're talking about here.

if kids started watching playboy channel would you expect them to change their content to something more kid friendly in order that their tiny little minds weren't exposed to such degrading filth?

or would you say that the parents of those children need to make approprate descsion on what those chidlren watch and it's their responsiblity to police the tv they watch.

 

[GarfieldLeChat]

Aggresive fucker, aren't you?

more aggressive than someone who deicides to pick up on that point rather than the subject of the discussion.

intresting little thing aren't you...

 

[kabbes]

I picked up on it because it was so incredibly jarring and out of character for the thread. It was a nice friendly discussion and then you got all aggressive for no reason. I don't know why you feel you have to behave like that, frankly.

adn so by escalating that aggression you are achiving what excatly?

sorry son but it's you reaading it it's in your head...

as is the aggression...

if you don't like it there's an ignore button.

so if your precious nature isn't offended by others who disagree or raise points you feel uncomfortable with.

unless i'm mistaken the lack of a red mod badge would make you a common or garden poster like the rest of us. If you find it so intollerable then report it. otherwise i'd stop the board cop mentality you have no say over other actions.

if you'd like me to be agressive or offensive towards you i can be but honey you ain't seen nothing yet indeed the agression is clearly being sturred up but some tut'ing ponce like you..

 

[Santino]

Captain, he seems to be trying to communicate with us.

 

[kabbes]

Hail him on all known frequencies using every language in our database until you get a match.

 

[GarfieldLeChat]

ah the tag team disablled bashing whenever the little boys find their dicks trodden on ... awr bless...

 

[Yuwipi Woman]

Oh, stop being such a wanker, Garf.

 

[LilMissHissyFit]

The simpsons has an awful lot to answer for in terms of an 'altenative education' *sniggers*

 

[PacificOcean]

Shall we run a sweepstake on how many humourless bastards complain to OFCOM?

C4 must have put the wrong tape in the player as I have seen that episode before and it has been censored.

 

[gsv]

Oh, stop being such a wanker, Garf.

It's not often that I actually laugh out loud, but that did it Yuwipi!
Yay!

[joevsimp]

and now theyre being super-anal about cutting anything, (other than the nudity that is)

 

[GarfieldLeChat]

Oh, stop being such a wanker, Garf.

"Married with Children" uses Wanker as Peggy's maiden name...
