Pete Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 What other word could she have possibly used to rhyme with maggot? Listen to it on Radio2 instead. Surely Pete, you're too old to be listening to that purile cr*p they pump out on Radio 1? I don't really do any radio, R2 or R4 if I do though. R1 makes my ears hurt.

Pete Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 It would be better if they edited the whole song and just swapped it for white noise IMO. You're both tasteless gimps. Radio 1 backs down in Pogues row http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7150693.stm Hoorah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxygene Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 The Pogues singing Fairytale of New York is all very well. But I think Bush & Troy singing "Fairytale of Bristol" is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Anyone remember the times that both Rage Against The Machines "Killing in the name of" and Nine Inch Nails "Closer" were played in full on the Sunday top 40 chart show? That was an outrage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteamAhead Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Poor Pete, you really have had a crappy week. You remind me of the guy from the film: Falling Down starring Michael Douglas. In short, it's about a guy that goes on the rampage after having a bit of a bad day. (little more to it than that, but you can see where I'm coming from) Anyone remember the film?

Chris Wilson Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I'll try and wean you on to some decent Christmas music, maybe Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby. Then I'll try and wean you off the excessive drinking this Christmas, man, you are getting yourself in a mess, you'll be in rehab by the New Year at this rate Pete.... Chill out!

Jive Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Daft question coming up, although a tad late as it's already been sorted. Surely the BBC are in charge of Radio 2? How come then, that Radio 2 can continue to play the unedited (correct version in my mind btw) when Radio 1 can't? Radio 1 should just have turned round and told whoever it was making these decisions, to politely go away and leave them to it (nearly swore there ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 So, what's next... bring back gollywogs? Golden Shred has never been the same. I have some Gollywog badges somewhere from those tokens you had to collect. I'll try and wean you on to some decent Christmas music, maybe Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby. Then I'll try and wean you off the excessive drinking this Christmas, man, you are getting yourself in a mess, you'll be in rehab by the New Year at this rate Pete.... Chill out! After how you sounded on Sat morning I don't think you can really comment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Haggas Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Golden Shred has never been the same. I have some Gollywog badges somewhere from those tokens you had to collect. After how you sounded on Sat morning I don't think you can really comment. Did you realise you are not allowed (so I was told,several times)to say golly wog anymore?It is now called a golly. I was in Windsor last year when in a shop window was a soft toy of a gollywog.You know,the one with striped trousers and a red waistcoat.When I saw it I thought cool I havent seen one of those for years,so went in the shop and asked about the price of the gollywog in the window.I quote "We only have a golly for sale,we cant call it what you said". Well bu66er me if you cant say that anymore. So Pete,be warned and please move with the times.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio 1 should just have turned round and told whoever it was making these decisions, to politely go away and leave them to it (nearly swore there ) The best bit was though that radio 1 cut the word out of the song, but then told you every news break that they had cut the word "faggot" out. This meant you heard the word about 10x more than if they had just left it in the song. And how come the news readers could say it without causing offence but we can't hear it in the song???:blink: Never mind resolved now!

He obviously doesn't control the news service though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Anyway, I thought faggot in the context of the song, did actually refer to the meatball. Shes calling him something cheap and not of quality. She'd certainly not calling him gay, because the two characters are arguing lovers. If this carries on, plumbers will have to start using pipe "re-aligners" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 Did you realise you are not allowed (so I was told,several times)to say golly wog any more? So Pete,be warned and please move with the times.... I resolutely shall not. Reminds me of the word Wog Box too. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=wogbox I go to proper pubs, they think you have had enough when you have run out of money... Or won't fix their PC.
