From: Rasener Date: 23 Apr 09 - 04:05 PM >>Next we will be watching how she got into this position<< Hmm thats a good idea :-) I don't see what the problem is. I have three women in the house and its like water off a ducks back. It's no good trying to hide such things, they are a fact of life. I think you must be suffering from embarrasment. Sanitary Towels and Tampons are very good for nose bleeds, ask footballers. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Don Firth Date: 23 Apr 09 - 03:58 PM It's not a matter of lack of respect for older people, Victor, it's that one can be ultra-prudish at any age, and it's the inherent prudishness of your objections to informative ads that people here are commenting on. After all, the appellation "Victor in Mapperton" doesn't specify your age, so as far as anyone here knows, you could be no older than fourteen. Hell's bells, Victor, I doubt very seriously that you are any older than I am, and frankly, I think your objections belong back in the Victorian age, when some folks were so up-tight about matters of human reproduction that they put skirts on pianos so their legs—excuse me, "limbs"—wouldn't show. How old am I? When the Big Bang occurred, I'm the one who said, "What the hell was THAT!??" Don Firth (78 on June the 19th. By the way, that's age, not rpm.) |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: greg stephens Date: 23 Apr 09 - 03:26 PM Put the kettle on in the ad break, Victor, or have a flip through the other channels and see if there any Friends or South Park episodes on anywhere, or doumentaries about Lancaster bombers. There generally are.That always whiles a few minutes away in an agreeable fashion, I find. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: goatfell Date: 23 Apr 09 - 03:16 PM If saw a thing on telly I wouldn't complain about it, I would just either switch off or change the channel they why we were born with thumbs.And I wouldn't complain about it. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Becca72 Date: 23 Apr 09 - 12:01 PM I should probably mind my own business and not poke the bear, so to speak, but my father taught me from a very young age that respect is earned, not granted simply based on age. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Crow Sister (off with the fairies) Date: 23 Apr 09 - 11:31 AM Great thread, thanks for the laughs folk! And why don't they ever use builders or long distance lorry drivers advertise loo paper? |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Victor in Mapperton Date: 23 Apr 09 - 10:28 AM I read recently that a new found respect for older people in society has emerged. Clearly not on mudcat. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Victor in Mapperton Date: 23 Apr 09 - 10:23 AM Uncle_DaveO, I just sent you a pm concerning your remarks. Thank you Victor |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: goatfell Date: 23 Apr 09 - 10:22 AM prude, if you don't want to see it then either switch off or change the channel, and don't sit there watching it and then complaining and boring the rest of us. push the button |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Jeri Date: 23 Apr 09 - 10:12 AM 'The "ad's" when "ads" was meant?' and 'Or "your" when "You're" was meant?' are sentence fragments, not complete sentences. If you're going to be a pedant, you should probably avoid making grammatical errors yourself. Either you can do that, or you can just stifle the urge to take petty digs at people. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: jacqui.c Date: 23 Apr 09 - 10:06 AM Go do something else during the adverts if they offend you. I think that having the information out there is a good thing - however it gets there. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Uncle_DaveO Date: 23 Apr 09 - 09:48 AM Which was not a spelling error? The "ad's" when "ads" was meant? Or "your" when "You're" was meant? Dave Oesterreich |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Victor in Mapperton Date: 23 Apr 09 - 09:26 AM Keith A of Hertford, That was not a spelling error, that was a very nasty pm from a member in which he or she made a threat that you are referring to. A big difference sir. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Becca72 Date: 23 Apr 09 - 09:13 AM Sins, I think that would rip a hole in the space-time continuum... |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: GUEST, topsie Date: 23 Apr 09 - 09:06 AM Just watch BBC - problem solved. (Well, it might not cure your spelling or your sanity, but you can't have everything.) |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Keith A of Hertford Date: 23 Apr 09 - 08:44 AM Victor, was it a similar error that led you to falsely accuse another member of sending you offensive pms? |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: SINSULL Date: 23 Apr 09 - 08:32 AM Why doesn't she get the moring after pill the day before? |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: 3refs Date: 23 Apr 09 - 07:35 AM I golf with a buddy who wears a pantie liner under his hat on hot days to stop the sweat from running down his face. The sticky tape must be placed on the hat though as it does not stick to bald heads! We now let him use the lady's tee! |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Michael Date: 23 Apr 09 - 05:52 AM Victor, I think the TV ads imply that you are allowed to make mistakes when you are any age! Mike |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Jack Blandiver Date: 23 Apr 09 - 04:53 AM The only thing that bothers me about the feminine hygiene adds is the use of blue liquid to demonstrate their absorbency. I think we should see them in action, doing what they're designed to do & soaking up all shades of vaginal discharge - menstrual, seminal, or otherwise. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Richard Bridge Date: 23 Apr 09 - 04:52 AM That reminds me of the Engineer Song, Bryn. You're (sic) quite right. Do you apply the same principle to your (sic) driving, Victor? |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Victor in Mapperton Date: 23 Apr 09 - 04:35 AM Sorry, that should have read "sanitary towels" as well you know. Glad it entertained the resident site nerds. When your my age your allowed to make errors. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Bryn Pugh Date: 23 Apr 09 - 04:31 AM Seems like sound common sense to me. An old engineer once told me : A standing pr*ck has no conscience, and a gaping [vagina] no pride. |

Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Bert Date: 23 Apr 09 - 02:38 AM Not for you Amos. No chance. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Bill D Date: 22 Apr 09 - 10:34 PM None of those towels for me... I think we should have a sanity clause. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: michaelr Date: 22 Apr 09 - 09:47 PM Bit of a prude, are you, Victor? |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Joe Offer Date: 22 Apr 09 - 09:43 PM Sanity Towels for sale No comment. -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Richard Bridge Date: 22 Apr 09 - 09:41 PM Seems very sensible to me. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Rapparee Date: 22 Apr 09 - 09:38 PM I don't think ANY drug ads should be on TV. |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Ebbie Date: 22 Apr 09 - 09:03 PM lol |
Subject: RE: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Amos Date: 22 Apr 09 - 08:56 PM Victor: I would love to learn more about these sanity towels you have in the UK. Is there any evidence that they work? If so, how? A |
Subject: BS: Do we really need to see this ? From: Victor in Mapperton Date: 22 Apr 09 - 08:50 PM The first TV advert in the UK for the morning-after pill is to be screened shortly. It comes after a row in recent weeks about the planned crop of TV adverts for condoms and sexual health services. I don't know about you, but do we really need such ad's ? I am sick looking at ad's for sanity towels, now this lot is due to hit our screens. The advert will show a woman waking up next to her partner and then taking a trip to a pharmacy to ask for the drug, which is the only morning-after pill available to women in the UK. Next we will be watching how she got into this position. |
