For your convenience... a text-speak translator. Fight fire with fire. NXT TM SMN TRIES THT (Next time someone tries that).... www.madhousebeyond.com |

| 772537 | 2009-05-11 02:25:00 | I don't even get that post...chinamen? huh? And thanks all for the great advice.:) Blam chinamen is a slur, like the n word is to african americans. But not everyone sees it that way. |

| 772543 | 2009-05-11 15:40:00 | A wonderful mixup here. Half of you appear to be replying to one aspect of what's become a dual-subject thread - and half the other. Trouble is some don't make it clear WHICH. (Great comedy for an old-time radio duo. OK Terry, here's your cue. I know you have heaps of choices...Well, remembering my childhood, I'd say so. And if you then come up with something from the 20s, I'll retire in high dudgeon - once I've located a dudgeon & worked out how to make it high) Edit: P.S. And all I originally wondered was which roddy boy effort he was banned for and - more interestingly - was HOW LONG FOR? Still don't know that. |

A dudgeon is a feeling of indignation so just get on a high horse and ride off into the sunset. Sorry Laura.:groan: Yep I couldn't sleep for worry about Roddy boy either! |
