# ouch.
If this were better done, maybe in cartoon form, I might have acknowledged that it was funny.

No such luck.

We're rude and offensive, but we're offensive to EVERYONE. Picking on people's just unfair!

Apart from spazzes, they're just asking for it.

# I frown upon this
you'll just attract all those bloody jews with posts like this.

EDIT:
I've just remembered a moment from my past that was very, very, very funny at the time. Hopefully I'll be able to render it humourless in the retelling.

A friend of the family had a brother who was about 14 at the time who was in some way mentally handicapped. I think he had Down's, but I was about 8 at the time and didn't know the difference, just that he was 'special'. We were all having dinner, sat at a table outside a cafe in some god-awful south-coast seaside town when he noticed my injured leg. My knee had taken a knock playing beach football and was swollen and wrapped in a tubigrip.
He lloked at my legs, realised one was bigger than the other and happily pointed and shouted "look... Knee-grow, knee-grow, knee-grow" in a cheerful, happy-go-lucky way.
Just as a black family of 3 walked past the table.

This story is true, and the family in question were initally mildly confused, then amused by the whole thing, and my mate's brother was happy enough, so it's a cheery tale really.

second edit: In case it's not clear, I'm part jewish and am therefore 'allowed'.

# well it made me chuckle..
the way I read it was a joke on itself, no-one uses the word coon anymore which made it funny.. that and Ainsley doing jazz hands like Al Jolson was the perfect addition. Yeah its toap, but some things don't need anything else..

For such a site that employs "shock tactics" with alot worse 'black humour' (excuse the pun) I am amazed anyone can find this offensive.. and I would suggest they don't log onto b3ta anymore if thats the case, as they are taking life way too seriously.

# It is offensive
because of the juxtaposition of a racist term with a black person, with no satirical edge to it. Yes, the board employs shock tactics, but they are done by decontextualising the words/ideas or placing them in a more complicated scenario.

Thank fuck I have an ignore button.

# exactly. Here, if something seems rascist, you're generally laughing at the racism itself in a different context
not the "funny black man pulling a silly face".

# B3ta isn't just about mindless, shock tactics
it's about humour.

And this pretty much stopped being considered humour to most people* in 1980

# Secondeded.
Blurry standards of discrimination create a miasma of unsurety.
I'm only here for the complete lack of standards. Surely teh Sick Joke book has some eqully lovely offensiveness innit?
(, Wed 7 May 2008, 15:04, archived)
# True
but the Sick Joke Book isn't B3tan, it's Sickipedian. Sickipedia, unfortunately, seems to attract a lot of racist fucks whose intelligence and level of literacy seems to be commensurate to their prejudices. I have hours of fun fixing their spelling, grammar and punctuation, which I hope annoys them greatly.

# looks like the picture's dubious, though..
'Apologies to any wogs that find this offensive'??????

hope this is irony.

A lot of people, like myself, react very strongly, indeed probs more strongerly(?) than any black person would, to distance themselves from these kinds of language and feelings. If people let comments like this go, then that means there is no opposition to them. This encourages social divides like that supposedly seen between muslims and non muslims, where moderate types that believe in islam are often criticised for not condemming radical chappies who go on about annihilating western infidels and the like.

Still, keeps talk radio stations busy. Those fuckers would struggle for callers during their phone ins otherwise.

# yes, but whats the point? Simply having a picture of a black man and a word underneath with the letters C-O-O-N in it is pointless, stupid and unfunny

# maybe you're right..

Someone says send them all back and votes BNP.. Another says honky white trash..
Somebody else says I don't give a flying fcuk.

Who's right? Who cares? alot of people on here obviously! Its good to debate !
