As we come to the end of the week and this being a slow day, time for a bit of chinwag and to shoot the breeze on a topic that surfaces once in a while.
I remember Erection when he first turned up in this forum, easy going, likes to joke, post good joke and contributes on most topics. I saw the Bob Sim running naked thread today and then I saw the comments from Erection and others on the ban in that thread. The thing that struck me was how similar Bob Sim had started out in this forum. Until he began talking about the same red underwear of his male tenant. It went on and on. I am sure the old timers would remember the red underwear. Look at what Bob is now.
@Erection, I think you are confusing free speech with spamming. Free speech is expressing your opinions, your views and your feelings without restrictions. It does not need to be high brow and therefore it can even be on a mundane subject like which way the toilet paper is placed on the roller. I am sure the jury is still out on the toilet paper roll placement. Spamming is the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. (sorry, spammed the over too many times). You offering your behind to Sam repeated so often in various posts will never qualify as free speech. Self deprecating humour is quite rare in the Asian context but this is does not fall in the humour category when the same thing is done over an over again. It also never falls in corny categoryeither. There is huge gap between corny jokes and repeating the same thing so many times a day.
I thought the telling point is that no one realised that you had been banned until you mentioned it. We have the same issue with TeeKee and Baluku. Except they spam on religion.I am sure nobody would bother if TeeKee and Baluku repeated the same thing in their own threads in the religious folder. Its posting the same joke in other threads started by others. I am sure TeeKee and Baluku think its in their DNA as well as they expect others to understand. They must also think that it is not harming everyone.
By the way this is not a high brow forum. 90% is everyday mundane and routine stuff about tourist having his carrot head chopped, Shortarse crowned beauty queen, coffee price up, chiobu farted in the lift, Policeman sleeping in police car, FT armpit not shaved, Mat playing guitar in void deck, MRT breakdown, Tonychat moving to OZ etc
The beauty of this forum is its ability to give extra amount of leeway until the ends fray. Any other forum would have banned you outright. We don't see this sort of thing in other forums because they will never allow it to reach this far.
I sense you are bored and need to interact. Just dish out the quality jokes that you used to post. I use to look for it in the past. If you still bored like I am now, write a very long post just like this. I have written many long posts which 99% don't bother to got thru but its my release valve.
ps. you offering your behind to Sam for some weird reason reminds of the poor Orang Utan kept by an woman in Borneo who immediately would offer his rear to any male that walks past. I first read about here in this forum - not pleasant and certainly not toilet humour either.
Sorry to be blunt but that is free speech I suppose.
