Question, why is it ok to make sexist and rascist jokes on this site. But not ok to make jokes about the differently abled people and paedophile victims.
I am asking to be educated, not to be ripped to shreds.

Not particularly funny, but don't see how it is offensive? :-[

wouldnt say its offensive but maybe in bad taste so to speak.

Because lots of people, despite professing to hate PC, indulge in it when it suits.

Hit the nail on the head... methinks

Its a joke as the title states I have abided by the site forum guides with regards to putting jokes in the title. if its not in your taste what can i say :exclamation

I found it quite funny but then I've got a weird humour anyway. As long as it's meant as a joke and correctly labelled as such I don't see the problem. I have a lifelong friend with cerebral palsy who from the first time I met him called him 'Jake' as in the peg. Just another of my mates sticks or not! Now could someone help me off this soap box? I can feel my vertigo kicking in :o

it is a joke at the end of the day and i dont think anyone in a wheel chair would find it offensive. my uncle is in a wheel chair and would not be offended its just every one jumping on the band wagon. a joke is a joke

In the same way that some folks think Bernard Manning or Matt Lucas are funny... and others (like me) think they are peurile ....

It made me smile :)..... but then i take a joke as a joke ..... i think jokes should be banned from forums ..... causes too many problems.... :(

Not offensive, not very good.
We all know all WD40 does is repel water

water dispersal attempt number 40 to be presice lol

I'm not amused at all, or I'm not too sure- I'm confused, oh bugger i don't know what to think anymore? its all gone crazy and to cap it all I've just missed oz aerobics. :(
-
Well, I thought it was funny. Not even particularly tasteless, and certainly not in the least offensive.
Keep on with the jokes!
-
I have a clicky(rusty :D)knee and surgical steel in bits of my foot.not sure if that qaulifies me to judge any more than anyone else,but it did make me chuckle. ;)

Judge your audience ::)

No one said it was offensive just not funny :y

i agree
If that was directed at me then I am offended. Anyone who knows me knows that I detest the way PC culture is ruining life, fun, common sense etc. At work I have to 'be' a certain way and abide by certain rules, part of being an Officer is acting. At home and on here I am completely different, normal so to speak.
To say I put my PC hat on when it suits is frankly an insult. I like good banter even at my own expense and my humour can be described as dark. Taking the p!ss out of the opposite sex male or female is a two way thing and has been going on here and elsewhere for a while, is that sexism......? I havent heard of any arguements from our female members And the English, Irish, Scotsmen jokes is that what you are refering to as racist jokes? If so then it is not me that is being too PC.
Taking the p!ss out of someone who over comes tremendous disability to compete in events doing faster times than many able bodied people can just aint funny. In my mind they are the true heros of sport esp when you put them alongside footballers who get paid a lot more for their acting than I do ;D ;D

i dont think it was aimed at you at all gaffers. :y

I'd have to disagree here. Why is it not funny? Are you saying that less able people can't be funny or we just can't laugh at them? I'm of the South Park school of comedy, you can either laugh at everyone or laugh at no one. Surely by saying you can't take the pi$$ you've singled them out? Don't get me wrong the joke wasn't the best tho!
