U.N. Survey

[Bundy]

Last month a world-wide survey was conducted by the UN. The only question asked was:-
"Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the foodshortage in the rest of the world?"


The survey was a huge failure because of the following:

In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant.
In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.
In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.
In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.
In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
In South America they didn't know what "please" meant.
In the US they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
In Australia they hung up because they couldn't understand an Indian accent.

Cor blimey, glad it is you, initially started out rewriting the Aus punchline, but thought again. If you get reported or negatively rep'd, will you air it?

Us Aussies have tough skin we don't care. Go ahead mate.

The line that seperates whats accepted "these days".

 

[Bundy]

Sorry I didn't even think it was racist. Just shows you how backwards hicksville I am.

I had the decency to air what I did in light of second thought. I am not trying to stir anything up, but if anything is stirred by the horrified ''masses'' please share it to the board or pm me.

It was the ''line'' you mentioned. Here is a quote of you in this thread.

Where is the line?

Do you remember writing and submitting it? It seems to be definitely you.

 

[Goat]

Im very confused.

You seemed to imply that maybe he would be taken to task about his joke. I asked what people might consider in bad taste.

I know Bundy didnt mean any harm, but I do agree with you that some may take offence, so I was asking the forum where they considered the line to be?

 

[TX Bill]

I don't think there's any issue with that joke.

 

[Goat]

Thanks Bill.

From being confused to being confused again. Good heavens, not your evening.
Let us not generalise about 'imply' and 'your opinion' we would no want to be accused of aggresively enforcing our opinions would we.
As for what you ''know Bundy didnt mean'' I hope you have Paul McKenna insurance. And to a lesser extent Derren Brown insurance.
As for me, I made no allegation about offence, so I have no idea about your grounds for that comment. Though I do have a question, why would You ask the forum to validate or otherwise via proxy your position?

Just for the record.
