Quote: OnceDearEasy mistake to make. This is not a democracy. We are all guests here.
Ain't the question.
Quote: OnceDearThanks. And you have a live wife?
So there is no dead wife to insult? If you'd had a dead wife, I might have seen ONM's comment as a nasty personal attack on you.
So you're saying jokes about a persons
living wife are fine on this forum?
Are you sure about this? Cause I got
some zingers..

So what ARE you saying? Be clear. A 'joke'
about my wife is fine, but my joke about
somebody elses is not?

You have, IMHO, a pretty good grasp of the English language. What i said was as clear or as opaque as I wanted it to be.
"When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.”
If you want me to issue you a license to make some kind of post, I'm not doing that. We have rules that tell you what you cannot do, not what you can do. Those rules are clear enough and opaque enough, too. You seem to understand them, and me, well enough to prosper here.

No no Bob.
He’s saying you can attempt to insult a person by referring to provocative pictures of their dead relative , provided that relative is not actually deceased.
How was this not covered in the original drafting of the forum rules ?
Quote: OnceDearYou seem to understand them, and me, well enough to prosper here.
I'm trying to understand this, I really am.
A 'joke' about a wife is OK as long as
the wife in the joke is dead and the
real wife is living.
Am I close?
I'll get right on it, when that authoratitive list of phrases comes through..Quote: michael99000No no Bob.

I don't see the rules as telling us a definitive list of what we can do. They generally tell us what we must not do and even that list is not definitive. If it were, the rules could be written as a bot.

I don't think so. You are sparring with me for your own entertainment.

OD that is EB's MO.
He gets you so defensive you wind up insulting him and getting the suspension.
Already he has you, a mod, saying he needs help with reading comprehension which is probably borderline insulting if not already insulting
Just my observation anyway

Take my wife.... please....

There's a word for people that do that online.... can't quite put my finger on it... I think it's even against the rules in many internet forums, maybe even this one.... what could it be... hmmm....

Nope. This is a discussion in the Discussion
thread about something that happened
to me here. I just want clarification on it.

Why are you asking for permission to post something you said you would never do (just a few posts earlier)?
Quote: EvenBobI can almost guarantee if I had made
the wife insult, and yes it was an insult,
you DO NOT joke about wives in this
society, they are always off limits, I
would have got 7 days. But because
it was directed at me, and not by me,
ha ha, of course it was fine.
Quote: AZDuffmanI asked someone if they stopped beating their wife to make a point of them asking a loaded question and got 3 days in the box
If the person you said that to doesn't have a wife, then why wre you suspended?
Who am I? John Lennon? LolQuote: QuadrigaGotta admit the wife joke was artful, if tasteless. The joke is about EB's lifestyle and his living arrangement with his wife and not about her. However, using the term "dead wife", it avoids jabbing at EB's supposedly living wife while conjuring the connotation of "Psycho" and Norman Bates. The joke implies that EB's wife is dead and she was hot when she died, him chasing his glory days. EB is keeping his wife's bikini body in a freezer to live in his past, treating the corpse, tight body in cryo-preservation, as if she were still alive.

EB can make a comeback joke by saying something like: ONM is so obsessed with Jennifer Lopez's images, his wife have to hire homeless guy to stand next to the big LCD TV with a bottle of windex and a squeegee.
I'm not offended. I realize this joke isn't about my wife, it's about my marriage and about me and how pathetic I am, but done well enough I can't do anything about it. #QUADRIGA2020 #VIVAQUADRIGA #MAYBEONMISANAHOLEQuote: QuadrigaEB can make a comeback joke by saying something like: ONM is so obsessed with Jennifer Lopez's images, his wife have to hire homeless guy to stand next to the big LCD TV with a bottle of windex and a squeegee.

Tell you what,, Bob. You can make as many jokes about my wife as you'd like. Let me start.
"With my wife I don’t get no respect. I made a toast on her birthday to ‘the best woman a man ever had.’ The waiter joined me."
Just get it out of your system.
You know you want to, youve been asking for two pages now...
Quote: MintyI wonder if EB and Socrates would have gotten along.
Would make the hemlock easier to drink.

I should not get into it other than to say all animals are equal but some are more equal than others.
Yeah like animals that absolutely have nothing to contribute in terms of gambling posts. What kind of animal are you?Quote: AZDuffmanI should not get into it other than to say all animals are equal but some are more equal than others.

Other than to say I am not a pig I really do not know.
As to gambling posts on here, I have made thousands of them.
Meanwhile, EB, you have made your point, but you're taking it too far to the point of trolling. You are going to have to get past it. Consider it an official warning.

Why not have some balls and make the post you want to . What's the worst that happens? You get banned for a period and become a martyr. Maybe get to hang around with forty virgins.
At least bring some cheese for us to enjoy with your whines.

You really had to make another post about how you're almost trolling? So, what, you're closer to the line now? Gosh, hope you don't step over it again...

Forty?
Was 72 a few years ago. Must be running low.

Fun fact: The 72 virgins thing is not in the Koran. The Koran only says you are given an unknown number of servants in heaven, and they are for men and women.
Also, suicide is forbidden in Islam, so all those suicide bombers have some 'splainin' to do.

But they're doing it for Allah. I think they get some free food at a place called Allahs-snack-bar or something like that. All I know is, they all sure get worked up over some joint named that before they depress the trigger.

Quote: Sunan Ibn Majah Volume 5, Book 37, Hadith 4337The Messenger of God said, 'Everyone that God admits into paradise will be married to 72 wives; two of them are houris and seventy of his inheritance of the female dwellers of hell. All of them will have libidinous sex organs and he will have an ever-erect penis.
Wow! Sign me up. However, as I understand it, this text is not on the same level as the Koran.

Instead of one woman nagging you all the time you want 72?
Five for you (or is that considered 15?)Quote: WizardWow! Sign me up. However, as I understand it, this text is not on the same level as the Koran.

5 for Romes

I know OnceDear is salivating over the first group.
Nah! I have to rule the first group out because of the tattoos :o) and the third group put me off with their beards. The second lot are just too young for me. I guess I'll just sit this one out.Quote: AxelWolf

Isnt is 72 virgins? Doesn't exactly sound like orgy material to me. My experience with virgins is they usually are the last to put out
Maybe thats the hell for the suicide bomber. Surrounded by 72 virgins who never do what the guy wants
