Exactly Pete! What ‘pol’ seems to be proposing is a return to the good old days of judicial summary justice – no more messing around with jury trials followed by endless appeals etc – and the guilty miscreants banished overseas to an Australian penal colony for ever and ever amen.
Incidentally, and not many people know this, but the term “Australian penal colony” was derived from the fact that Australia in general, and Sydney in particular, has the highest concentration of homosexual males in the world.
“penal” is an obvious derivation from “penis” and “colony” is equally obviously derived from “colon”. Hence the term “penal colony” refers to the various unnatural practices of the average Australian male…… also known as “widening the circle of your acquaintances”.
I just thought I’d share that with you on this exceptionally cold day.

Oh boy! How wrong can some people be ?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Erm technically, he’s right. Everyone has commiserated with Susie on her horrid day, but nobody has said…. God has just vomitted in my kettle too!! :)
I love the simile minim – so much more descriptive than the usual “pissed on my cornflakes” one.

Unfortunately, I don’t know any jokes about ‘world poverty’ ….. maybe you could oblige???

So the moral of will’s story is: Never ever make any sort of ‘joke’ or lighthearted comment on anything remotely serious, just in case you offend somebody somewhere.
If you can’t find somebody to claim offence, you can always fall back on that time honoured comment “You wouldn’t find it funny if it was your ************* ” (fill in the appropriate thing/person).
Oh how I mourn the passing of irony.
Goodness gracious Gazlan, if you “did” that pair of munters, surely you wouldn’t want to boast about it.
I don’t know about “Pssst” – more likely pissed.
Look, just because I possess almost godlike admin powers doesn’t mean that I have had a sense of humour bypass.
Sometimes, in order to survive in this awful world, you need to have a sense of the ironic …. oh and will, – not to take yourself too too seriously.
There’s a lot of heartlessness circulating around eh minim?
I guess that, as I only had ” negative “ remarks to make ….. that’s me stuffed for another year then eh?
