Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Woman dressed as vagina stops attack on man dressed as penis

Passers-by watched in amazement as a woman, dressed as a vagina, stopped an attack on a man, dressed as a penis. The incident took place on a Friday afternoon, last week, in Glastonbury High Street, England.

The Vagina and Penis were performers with the Nomadic Academy of Fools, who were out in the High Street promoting their production Fooling Around, four days of plays at the Glastonbury Assembly Rooms. It is believed that a member of the public took great offense at the actor dressed as a penis and began to attack him. Performer Chris Kelly, who was dressed as the penis, later explained:

“He started shouting at me, saying it was disgusting and children could see us. I could tell by his body language that he was really angry. I tried to calm him down, I wasn’t looking for a fight; but he grabbed my hat, tore it off and chucked it on the pavement.”
Both the Penis and the Vagina then headed back towards the Assembly Rooms. In the meantime, another member of the public had telephoned the police. The actress, Joanne Tremarco, who was dressed as the Vagina, told police they did not want to press any charges against the man.

“Then he explained that I needed to take the costume off, or I could be arrested. They also removed flyers for the plays we were performing.”
Ms. Tremarco understood how some members of the public could be offended by their costumes, but went on to explain:

“We’re trying to highlight the contradiction in society. People were offended by us walking around in costume, but it’s nothing you can’t see in magazines and newspapers that are often displayed in a child’s eye-line. On the whole, the reaction we had was positive from most people.”
The Nomadic Academy of Fools agreed not to give any more street performances, while a spokesperson for the Assembly Rooms said:

“We were deeply surprised by the reaction of the police in this situation. This is not the first time these shows have been performed here. The plays were very well attended and we experienced no trouble at the venue.”
Inspector Mark Nicholson, of Avon and Somerset Police, said:

“We wouldn’t have stopped the play going ahead, but it’s not appropriate to have costumes and swear words like that in the streets where young children and other people could see them and be offended.”

Skinny,

Stop exposing yourself.

Interesting these views on hilary.

Be carefull though BILL aka haytrees will jump into to defend him/her.

Herman,

Well spotted - this is 2013 - there are no flies on you!

Fortunately, the namby-pamby political correctness of the Blair and Brown years is dying a death. People should be allowed to call a spade a spade without fear of offending the holier than thou righteous brigade, of which you and fishfinger are clearly both members.

Herman,

Why do the words pot, kettle and black spring to mind? Anyone whose each and every post consists of a solitary full stop is pretty gormless in my eyes. As well as a total twat.

It's my guess that skinners is subtly alluding to the same in 28106.

Come on Hils get down off the fence and say what you really think. :>)

h, Coming on here and sniping at posters does you no credit, so to use one of your analogies (I.E. People should be allowed to call a spade a spade without fear of offending the holier than thou righteous brigade).. You could always consider pissing off again.

Dear me Hilary - I think I have got the gist that you must be a male as I don't think any female on here would use the word twat. However, whatever. A little like using the word c---.

.

hilary - your comments are invariably well thought out and worth reading .... why have you allowed yourself to be dragged down into this morass of morons!)?

Your holiday didn't do you much good then Cynic.

matter of opinion .... actually came back about 6 weeks ago, though off cycling for a week with Marianne from next w/e

Well, cheer up then you miserable git -):

On the subject of Oil (which you seem to have an interest) have you any thoughts on the sector Short and or medium term at all?

Hilary,

I think there is difference between calling a spade a spade, being out spoken and presenting an “argument” clearly, or with humour and being deliberately offensive, abusive and denigrating to the other person concerned.

To some of your postings are interesting and even informative, but often you seem only able to attack the messenger and not the arguments they present and concentrate on dismissing them by indiscriminate abuse, perhaps demonstrating your own inadequacies.

I think part of the problem is that some behaviour often demonstrates your obvious satisfaction of attempting to kick somebody when you think are down, and being abused by others, because they hold views divergent to your own opinions, or personal whims. This often seems to me to be your approach rather than presenting forward reasoned arguments, or opinion.

Cynic sycophantic remarks, reminds me of early support behaviour of leading Moll seen in adolescent feral gangs.

Unless, of course, his remarks were tongue in cheek.


Attacking somebody “political” opinion seemingly based on his perceived “sexuality” is as questionable as doing so on racial or religious base seems to me and others to be questionable.
