Go and chase ambulances and rant elsewhere--really-- ffs-- Because you chose to belittle my religion I am just supposed to sit here and agree while your cohorts pat you on your back? Just because you are a prolific poster it does NOT give you the right to slag off my beliefs and pass it off as banter. Call a black man (or a person of colour as I believe they wish to be known as these days) a ni***r -- and if they get offended say no problem mate, someone called me an orange bast*rd yesterday and everything is cool? As stated before I have no problem with piss taking or banter or even having my arse handed to me, but casual racism and bigotry dressed up as "banter" is a no no in any language, least of all mine. Keep that shite in the Shankill where it belongs.
It certainly proves you can take the man out of the north of Ireland, but you can't take the north of Ireland out of the man. If I called you a paedo, you would rightly be most upset, but if I quantified that remark with "its alright mate, mikey called me that yesterday- -great banter, eh?" and that makes it alright??
Yes, on this forum we strive to have a bit of fun and have a laugh at each others expense, and I have had my fair share of piss taken, both given and received , as you rightly say-- joke laugh as the way it should be. Keep your bigotry and religion out of this equation and everyone is happy.
