Dee Man Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I've heard some sychophantic radio DJ crews in my time but Johnny Vaughan's brown nosers on Radio X are close to taking the title off of Steve Wright's posse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Stranglers' Golden Brown got played, uncensored, every time, despite being about heroin abuse. I like that when R.E.M "What's the Frequency Kenneth" gets played on the radio, they quite regularly don't edit out the "don't f**k with me" line at the end.

Given that his original post was in reply to you telling someone to grow up, his point was valid. You go to an annual Laurel and Hardy convention and posted a picture of yourself wearing a dedicated t-shirt at said event. You’ve ruled yourself out of ever telling anyone to grow up I’m afraid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a T-shirt is fancy dress (the original phrase, not 'costume' as I said) is it? And my original point was that mocking somebody for having an interest that you don't share is a bit off. Turns out I was whooshed but you've just explicitly done the same thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A t-shirt isn’t fancy dress. I didn’t say you wore fancy dress or a costume, just a dedicated t-shirt. No, your point was to mock someone for making a joke out of the word “caving” by saying you didn’t get it because you’re “more than nine years old”. Laughing at someone for acting like a child, whilst going to an annual Laurel & Hardy convention wearing a dedicated t-shirt is the height of irony.

No, it was Dele who described a T-shirt as fancy dress. Which is why I didn't realise he was talking about me at first. And going to a convention is childish?

Well, he was eccentric but we're back on mocking people with different interests. Anyway that guy died years ago and his grandson runs it now.

DA Baracus Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Back to censored lyrics. Electric 6's Gay Bar has a line in it that goes "Let's start a war! Start a nuclear war!". On the radio the words 'war' and 'nuclear' are censored out with a silly sound effect. Wheatus' Teenage Dirtbag has a line that contains "he brings a gun to school". The word 'gun' is censored. I always find it amusing that they do this whilst songs about getting pumped (Rhianna's Rude Boy for example) are played in full. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
