RE: I'M SORRY, DIDN'T MEAN FOR IT TO HAPPEN.
A really nice post buddy however I can't see what you did wrong?
People are too bloody soft these days and it has become so hard not to offend someone, so hard it's hardly worth trying.
Give yourself a break Jack you're all good mate.
naaa mate, no body said anything anywhere. I just put myself in "MY OWN SHOES" to when my kids were among the many who can not enjoy what we did.
So I am actually being self critical.
I do appreciate the fact that no body said anything, even if someone did read my post from last night, and maybe thought to them self "well I couldn't do that" or "my kid can't do that".
But it does come down to the fact that I feel guilty because I should have known better, just got carried away with remembering my childhood, forgot the facts of life for so many kids who don't have the opportunity to enjoy it the way I did.... who just can't do the things I did.... and with everything that I went through, all the emotions that go with.... and so on.... I just go out and do somthing as thoughtless as this.... OK if I didn't know... but I do know and I still f#ckd up.... self critical is worse than if a 1000 people said anything, mea culpa dude.... I need to think before I act.
Yeah gotta agree with Percy here. I think you are being way too hard on yourself. I mean who wants to live in a world where you have to self-censor yourself so much that you actually stop posting things that make YOU happy and YOU smile. There was nothing wrong with your post and you meant no ill intentions by it and I am sure even someone who had a bad clothesline experience would see that lol.
Well said dude. If this self censorship PC crap is allowed to continue then what would be the point of posting anything? Some Bugger would be offended. That's the great thing about true freedom, you have the right to say what you like and others have the right to switch off and ignore you. Being deliberately offensive, outright racist or cruel won't get make you popular or earn you anything so that behaviour will die on the vine in the most part but the post was light hearted and if people can't take it that way.......Fuck em!
