This whole thread doesn't sit right with me. There's some weird folk who go to the rugby.


Thank god the weirdos are limited to rugby, eh?

.


But that is your OPINION. some people find pranksters funny. Whether you find it funny or not is irrelevant it is a legitimate type of comedy.

I found it funny because it was so bad and so ridiculous that it took up the news for a whole day. It really parodies the press and makes them seem more ridiculous with their fawning over a celebrity and relegating important news off the telly and front pages.


You also seem to find it difficult to separate what happened with what is going on in your head. They talked to two nurses. Not to Kate , not to the patient not to the foetus two nurses. Where you get all this crap about it being upsetting and distressing for the patient is ridiculous.

That is going to be a lot less than than the shiite she will have to put up with from the press for the next 50 years because the press cater for people like you with wall to wall celebrity coverage.

Of course i feel sorry for the nurses caught in the middle of it but a quick i will hand you over to the management should solve the difficulty.

I would guess that when faced with a tricky or delicate situation at work all of us say i will pass you on to the manager, HR, Pr person or whatever

Quote:quote="Mintball"]Thanks.

You've just answered your own question. This sort of stuff is infantilised bølløcks.
[/quote]


so you dont like some comedy


Quote:Darling, I can "write off" the entire tabloid section of the UK press, plus much of the rest of it, plus all the 'reality TV', plus lots of other stuff. I wish I could be a right-on as you.


You write it off how.

You pretend It doesnt exist, you ignore it, you tell people it is irrelevant.

Unfortunately it is not going away and unfortunately it is important. That is why i think it is OK to take the mickey out of the celebrity culture. To make the tabloids look irrelevant, to make the celebrities less important and to highlight the ridiculousness of it all. An example being that this thread will soon be longer than the one on Palestine and i know which one is more important.





Quote:But, much more generally, I repeat what I said much earlier: we do not, as yet, know what caused her to end her life (and probably never will, fully). There may have been other factors that were involved. Possibly not. Possibly. So just keep polishing the cyber pitchforks.
[/quote]

I agree with you on that one.

No probs, glad to help. Another point or 2 would be
1/ suicide by hanging is extremely rare for women, they are more likely to o/d or slit their wrists.
2/ killing yourself on your way to work is very strange.
3/ no mention of a suicide note.

The two Aussies using the most ridiculous impersonation of the queen, them laughing at each other that they got through, them taking the mickey out of the establishment, them taking the mickey out of the press for conflating such a non story.
All those things had comedic merit to them whether youy like it or not is irrelevant. Those in authority are a legitimate target to poke fun at.

All this crap about targeting an bullying the nurse is ridiculous.

And as for Cronus saying most people did not find it funny does that really surprise when you look at British media sites to find British people dont like johhny Foreigner taking the mickey out of a British monarchy. That is because the monarchy are set up as being above us.
I see you have already fallen for the poor saintly little Kate.

No doubt you have her picture sat next to your one of Saint Diana.

Nope, don't see any of that. Just a childish, ill-conceived call. Methinks you're reading waaaaay to much to into it to suit your anti-royal agenda.

Quote:You also seem to find it difficult to separate what happened with what is going on in your head. They talked to two nurses. Not to Kate , not to the patient not to the foetus two nurses. Where you get all this crap about it being upsetting and distressing for the patient is ridiculous.

Of course, it helps if you actually read what you're replying to, the key phrase being what I actually wrote: "potential for causing stress to the sick patient and their baby". We're all fully aware they didn't speak to Kate, doesn't change the fact they tried to.

Quote:That is going to be a lot less than than the shiite she will have to put up with from the press for the next 50 years because the press cater for people like you with wall to wall celebrity coverage.

:lol: There we go again, making things up. I utterly detest celebrity culture. That doesn't mean I can't see how despicable this 'prank' was.

Quote:Of course i feel sorry for the nurses caught in the middle of it but a quick i will hand you over to the management should solve the difficulty.

Not sure they would have been on duty at 4am or 5am. And I imagine they wouldn't expect people to be pranking hospitals in the early hours with the intention of disturbing a sick and pregnant patient. Only a complete tw@ would think that was a good idea. Or indeed, humorous.

imagine if the info they'd received was 'She's just had a miscarriage'
funny, lol, lmao?

You don't prank hospitals end of

on the other similar programme like Dom Jolly etc, they get their 'victims' to sign forms to say that it's fine to air their particular prank, no signature and it's consigned to the dustbin.






It's been fun.

At what point did they thinking making a prank call to a hospital (regardless of who the patient is) was in any way amusing? Are 999 prank calls funny?
