    Harummmph?!?!? You harummmph at ME! How dare you sir! I'm offended.
    Where the hell is Mongo when I need him to punch somebody out?

    Harummmph, Harummmph, Harummmph!!!
    😜


    Ok..Red and Lala...I'm not an expert on the rules of offended...but I thought I read, you can only be offended twice..So if i'm offended, and that offends Red, and Lala..but Lala is offended by Red..then I think ...as the rule states...You have to start over and find something new to be offended by.

    Such as ..someone can be offended by my giant run on sentence.
I'm offended that you have not memorized "Robert's Rules of Offense". Therefore we have an offensive offense that is offending. I rest my case. Harummmph

    I am never going into that PC night. I am all for educating folks on what is right and wrong, but dragging Christmas songs in to the land of offensive is beyond everything that's labeled "stupid". In retail I once was told to say "Happy Holiday" so I wouldnt offend any one- THAT did not work. It's Merry Christmas. If someone is offended- go shop somewhere else. And that goes for the rest of the year as well.
Yeah...No one will ever get me to stop saying Merry Christmas. December the 25th is not called Holiday. So, I'm not gonna say Happy Holiday. It's Christmas...LOL

I agree...in this scenario the radio station caved. I'm just wondering how many times this kind of stuff backfires...

Such as the radio station doesn't want to lose listeners. So they ban the song. Do they lose more listeners by banning it, then they would have by ignoring the whiners?

It's why I think it's all a trip down lunacy lane. Not really sure there is a "correct" answer here. Just silly rants like mine.

I have to jump on the bandwagon/soapbox on this one.

We live in a country where it's okay to voice that you are offended, it's okay to have your opinion and voice your opinion. What people forget is that they have the right to turn around and walk away, as it were, from anything they want, anything that offends them. Instead, for some reason, they think it's okay to force their opinions on others. Then everyone gets to the point where they are afraid to offend the minority who are so very vocal, and the minority is control things, like in this case with the music.

Makes my head hurt. It's so frustrating. Reminds me of when my daughter was in elementary school...her teacher was reading Harry Potter out loud to the class...the kids loved the story, and many of them got interested in reading because of it. ONE family complained....they didn't like the content. Because of them, that book was no longer allowed to be read to the class.

Okay. I'll get off the soapbox, leave room for someone else.

So much chatter and noise out there. I usually ignore it unless I feel that I can impact change... or at the very least - vent and clear my slate. I've made my points with a couple of media stations and pissed off a few people and I'm sure that number will increase. I'm working on it. Silly people and the media can all go fuck themselves. Stupidity, general ignorance and exageration of what's offensive... have always been prevelant on this planet. It's a fucked up world. 🌎

On both those issues I say "this is the height of ridiculosity"

I hate to think what people would find offensive, if they really took apart all the old Christmas Carols and dissected them, word by word.

Check out my profile or and become a "watcher" of my blog FMAOPLS,to learn more about me, and for intelligent, lively, smartassy and fun discussion, with a little irreverence thrown in. "Like" or comment on my photos, and I promise I'll add more. Thanks.

See, this was my main point in the post. I have no problem with everyone having an opinion. I have no problem listening to everyone's opinion, and can't say I ever dismiss it out of hand. And it's ok, if people get offended, there's always something that will strike people in a different way.

But as in the case of your kid. One family has a problem with it, so the other 20 families have to abide by the one's opinion. Sorry, any way you cut it, that's just wrong.

Well I'm gonna have to go read yours. haha.

I think you hit on a great point. I was raised by parents who not only taught me the benefits of doing my chores, but the aspects of life I was going to encounter. Not sure a lot of that happens anymore .

To be honest, I feel like we're being guided by a younger "twitter" generation. So many people who just tweet away their thoughts. And then major news sources run a story, that is basically just a bunch of tweets reprinted. Makes it sound like the opinion has been proven and is valid.

I agree with you and this stuff is really getting ridiculously out of hand pretty soon we won't be able to listen to any kind of music that was real music.

I have to say I miss the old days where sports you could yell and cheer for the kids and get on them when they messed up. Now everyone gets a trophy to me this is just all kinds of wrong. Not saying that we shouldn't treat everyone with respect, it's just things need to go back to the days of when we were young..

Hey I know my last part didn't have anything to do with this post but I was giving an example of the way things need to go back to the way it used to be. Music should be enjoyed and not shelved just because some idiots and I use that term lightly get offended from it my god what the fuck planet are they from.. There isn't a damn think with that song or it's lyrics..

I agree with that. And you know whats funny, is I can remember back in my early teens through now, I can remember people always disagreeing on things. But it seemed people could discuss the differences and not get offended. Most of the time.

These days it seems like it's "do it my way, or I'm offended". If I think the song is sexist or racist, then no one can listen to it.

It's getting crazy, and I'm not sure there is any turning back at this point. But like you said, it's all about respect. And there's still enough of us that seem to be able to show that. Who knows, maybe it'll get though.

You can always feel free to expand on the thread Trzzz.

I agree, and if we're going to allow some of the songs on the radio, that are clearly sexist , why not this song. The song was actually written with the idea of a guy trying to convince a lady to stay over, and her fighting her desire to stay.

Yeah, that was my bad. I meant I'm the only one getting older. The rest of you fine people seem to have just stopped aging.
