Well I for one think its funny 
And I wouldn't have complained/edited or removed it unless someone from that race group had objected.
So, just so I'm clear on this, we can't associate or imply the following in any way shape or form:-
Scotsmen and tight fisted bastar.....
Welsh and sheep sha**ers ...
Irish and thick...
English and whingeing....
And so on....
ps - if anyone is offended by the above, tough...its meant to be a joke and if don't find it so, go get a life
D
Edited for spelling - doh

I have met Yex, he is about as offensive as rainbow is to 6 year old kids. TOP BLOKE.
Eminem is offensive, but at the end of the day you have the choice to not listen to him and also can avoid being exposed to it. So those who complained lighten up and take a look in the mirror. Your telling me that at NO point have you told a joke and then thought $hit, that was a bit right flank (i am not attacking homosexuals here in case anyone blames me for inuendos) or a bit iffy (I am not insulting a great lemon smelling cleaning product named "jiff" before anyone says or am I emplying that anyone has a stiffy or erection or bona or...?)
See what I mean, take it how you like. Meet the people on here, know what they are like and then pass judgement.
Some people love a ruck, and for the record so do I. Flame suit is on the floor and I am exposed 100% to onslaught of fire (and no, I am not a devil worshipper or anti christian etc etc) Broken record, very scratched and needs changing. Next track is :"always look on the bright side of life"...press play. pleeeeeeease

Heres's another one.....wait for it, wait for it.....NO OFFENSE MEAN'T
Those German controllers at Frankfurt Airport tend to be a short-tempered lot. They not only expect pilots to know their parking location but how to get there without any assistance. So it was with
some amusement that we (PanAm 747) listened to the following exchange between Frankfurt ground and a British Airways 747 (radio call
Speedbird 206) after landing.
Speedbird 206: "Good morning Frankfurt. Speedbird 206 clear to active."
Ground: "Good Morning. Taxi to your gate."
The British Airways 747 pulls onto the main taxiway and stops.
Ground: "Speedbird, do you know where you are going?"
Speedbird 206: "Stand by, ground. I'm looking up the gate location now."
Ground (impatiently): "Speedbird 206, have you never flown to Frankfurt before?"
Speedbird 206 (coolly), "Yes, in 1944. But I didn't stop."
Regards
Yex
