I was only filling in the survey because there was a chance to win something or other. I didn't realise the questions would be so difficult... :lol:

I don't remember there being more than 2 possible answers last time I filled in a survey. Something like that would have been unheard of, or at least not spoken about if it did exist, back in the 70's.

On a related subjected, I heard on the news today that Kleenex man-sized tissues are going to be renamed as the name is offensive to women and the other (please specify) people! :D

What a load of bo****ks :banghead: What is the world coming to.....Soon, no one will speak :? :?
Everyone is looking to be offended, and I'm offended that they are offended...Vicious bloody circle!!

We are so lucky nowadays with technology etc, if the younger generation especially appreciated that compared to what we had in the 70's and 80's, maybe they would stop complaining...Social Media is the biggest cause of ALL the current crap, I wish it would dissapear overnight!

I agree with that. People seem to be offended over everything and everything these days, even if it doesn't affect them directly. Unless somebody insults you directly, why get worked up over it? Life is too short.

AS some of you jested earlier, I wish I could be Prime Minister. The snowflakes and lefties would soon be tweetering that I was a Fascist Dictator and they would be right with what I would sort out in this country. The tweetering and other socialist media would soon be shut down as it frankly is becoming so divisive.

They are always moaning that the NHS is skint yet why do they still do these sex change ops etc at the public purse? If you want your willy cut off pay for it yourself? I'd also make people pay in full for IVF or better still why don't people still adopt a kid? Or are all of the kids now still with their 16 year old mothers in a council flat paid for by the rest of us.

I'd better shut up or the thought police will be round to arrest me but as I said earlier oh I wish we could go back in time and reset the way this country has developed.

I read this morning that Waitrose are renaming a sandwich as it has "gentleman's relish" in the title!
Unbelievable.

What next, no more Ploughmans??

When is someone going to say enough is enough :doh: It's about time the PC Brigade were strung up by the nuts :poke:
No more Man of the Match in Cricket either, it's now player of the match :shock: If it's only men playing in that game what's the issue :?

Eventually men will become extinct, as some woMAN will come up with a artificial chemical sperm that only produces female genes :goodluck: Who will cut the grass then :lol:

It is unbelievable as that's not offensive at all. Who's got enough time on their hands that they feel the need to complain about this stuff? :roll:
