The Nanny state moves on

[RobMc]

Look out USA this is coming to you, the Snowflakes are winning hands down :-

 

BBC Radio 1 will not play the original version of Fairytale of New York by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl this Christmas, because its audience may be offended by some of the lyrics.

The station said young listeners were particularly sensitive to derogatory terms for gender and sexuality.

To complete the full set, I think to keep you safe they should ban you from leaving home                                   Oh! hold on now  ?????

Where have you been Rob, already happened at least a year ago. Last year the US wanted to ban the song baby its cold out there. Song has been around forever but somehow was determined to be offensive to the thin skinned community. Dont ask me why I dont know.

Rob, they need to play more appropriate songs for the young listeners like WAP :

So sensitive. lol

Well, some dumbass did blow himself up in front of a wireless carrier hub over here because he thought 5G technology was 'Teh Devil'.  So I'm intermittently stuck not having the customer's address to which I need to deliver food.  Because, stupid.  Gotta love when one suffers the consequences of a complete stranger's stupidity.

They wanted to  ban it cause it was demeaning to women - male singer was putting the make on the female singer - trying to get her in the sack - snow flakes and woke people are demeaning to anyone with common sense - (sorry @RobMc   you're included anyway)

Oh ok, I suppose 'Smack my bitch up' by the Prodigy is out of favour too?

Honestly I welcome this news, and not because of the lyric (i mean, i think it's gross but hey I'm a snowflake soo) but because the song is the MOST ANNOYING of all Christmas songs, which are already fucking annoying.

Like when you get banned for no reason other than some random people don't like you because you're better than them at a video game haha love when that happens

Non-sequitur.  Not even tangential to the topic at-hand.  And that would also be a straw man argument in that topic.  If you got banned, it was because an admin deemed it so, not because anyone whined about your game play.  If that were the case, 1/2 the fucking server's players would have long ago been banned.

Known many for over a decade, most all have been gaming longer than you've been walking this earth.  Will trust their judgment above your tantrum you throw over multiple threads.

IKR?  Comes over here to complain about another subject from another thread- seeking attention- then goes back to that thread & whines about off-topic posts & how it's just not fair in that thread & asks for it to be locked: 

I'm capable of doing multiple things at once, maybe it's hard for you to imagine but that is a thing that exists!
Maybe make your own thread where you can post irrelevant shit instead of spamming me with notifications about yet another pointless post?

@WldPenguin can you please lock this thread?

Can't make this shit up.   Also:

??? methinks it's you commenting in the wrong thread, why do you want Pengy to lock mine ? I ain't spamming you? it's my quote you're commenting on not his? get it together bro

[Timmah!]

No Rob, those were quotes from the other thread with him crying for penguin to lock that thread because he felt people were being unfair & spamming him with irrelevant posts.  Just doing a shitty job of quoting his hypocrisy.

Radio is the best info or music provider even remote area .

You can listen to  the radio  where you dont have a dot of cellular signal and surely no  internet cable.

I heard they are trying to get 'White Christmas' banned as it offends BLM
