Right all,
As you know I got suspended for a racist post on here. Can I just say now that it was a total wynd up(bad one). I got pissed of by the reaction of most people on here with regards The Mexican Joke and thought **** this I`ll give them something really racist to complain about.
The Mexican joke was just a little bit of fun with no harm intended, it maybe wasn't the most PC of jokes but a PC world would be a boring world.
I think in the US people have a different view to what they find acceptable regarding having a dig at other nationalities. Here in the UK jokes are always made about the Scots being tight bastards, the Irish being stupid bastards, the Welsh shagging sheep and eh the English(I`ll keep quiet)and nobody really takes offence, it's treated manily as fun.
When I seen the Nuisance thread starting to get outta hand I tried to get the GMAN to delete it before it went further, but before I knew it I had 100 people on my case and I suppose the evil streak in me took over and decided to turn up the heat some more which I did.
The unbelievable thing for me was Lil Ray was accusing me of dancing to his Tune when he had been dancing to mine I suppose. Guys like Jonny Mac and a few others obviously twigged right away that I was fishing for a reaction which I definitely got (along with a ban).
Some of the other arguements in The Nuisance thread were also unbelievable, Bold Soul and JL who were going at it hammer and tongs (re-the mexican thread) with Orion became friendly and as for Lil Ray his boxer shorts were that hot the guy 5 blocks down still hasn't had to switch his heating on yet.
Can I just say having lived in Pollockshields Glasgow (which has the largest asian community in Scotland) nearly all my days and having been subjected to various campaingns from the NF, BNP and Combat 18 there is no need to remind me of what racisms like, thats why I find it rich when guys from massive ethnic communities like eg. Paisley (sarcasim) come on here and shout their mouths of when in fact they know **** all about it.
Can I also say to Mr Bean or Bean Pole or whatever the **** your called that the stuff I say with regards the football is purely banter which as you are no doubt aware goes on in every workplace in Scotland, nothing is really serious about it. Oh and also I'd watch who you call bawbag as you never know who you could meet next time your in Glasgow.
I`ve been guilty of being a bit naughty for deliberatley wynding people up and I now realise I shouldn't have used such a sensitive issue as racism to do so for which I apologise.
I hope this is the end of this matter and that Nuisance post dies quickly from the front page along with another one.
ladies and gentlemen it's been a pleasure

PS - Anyone want to buy some white sheets (joke)
