As Jerry Springer says take care of yourselves and each other. Live by those rules and you won't go far wrong in life.

Knowing you watch Jerry Springer, explain a lot

[DeepcutHoop]

Understand completely and like you say a lot of it is about priorities.

Yep, if you want to offend, it's your prerogative. Just prepare to be man enough to take the repurcussions.

Not at all...laughed long and hard tbh Eskimo......still laughing now

The point is that Eskimo is a more general word than Inuit. All Inuit are Eskimos but not all Eskimos are Inuit. The two words aren't synonyms.

I don't think Mackay would have been reprimanded for using the word eskimo....Do you?

[DeepcutHoop]

I used to quite enjoy Alf Garnett even if was an 'Ammers fan. Don't think it would get on TV anymore though! Although poking fun at racism would be viewed as too racist. This weird PC world we have constructed.

Have you seen the Pub Landlord?

Exactly the same joke, playing simultaneously to two different audiences.

Think Hipster and that lot would have strung him up! Eskimo is an offensive term to Inuits . Or does that not matter because it wouldnt have made a big as splash in the papers as using the word C*****? Hipster hates bullying so he would have stuck up for the Inuit people i am sure

Hmmm..... Can't see many peoples' web history, email trash and mobile phone activity would look pure as the driven snow if it were subject to forensic analysis going back a few years: all seems very out of proportion to me - it's like there are legions of folks out there just waiting to be offended so they can go off on some righteous outburst.

I've read and reread this thread and fail to see a 'righteous outburst'.......

spot focking on but careful not to get them all riled again

Thanks for answering for me again Squire, but if me Aunty had balls, she'd be me Uncle. Fact of the matter is, those words used on work equipment is deplorable. What is needed, is education. It baffles me how you don't know what words conjure pain which get simply brushed under the carpet as "banter" or "too pc".I pray, for your sake, that you will learn one day. Education is the key Sir.

[hipsterhoop]

I haven't.....

Wowzers. Credit to you. I try and watch shows once to see what the fuss is about. But you're right, I have still never seen The Only Way is Essex or Made In Chelsea yet.
