For example I am currently eating a packet of fruit gums in the office. I may have said too loudly that there are too many blacks and that I hate the blacks. Is that fruit gum racism or do you take into account the fruit gum context?

I wouldn't have said it outwith the fruit gum context.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you actually consider not liking black fruit gums to be racist in any way?

No, but others may. I don't dislike them because of their colour you see. Others may not believe that that is the case though.

You're mixing up colour and race.

I guess you're trying to show that all racism is racism and the context is irrelevant. Is that your point?

Let's take the football authorities for example
Do you really expect them to do anything about racism in cricket? I don't but I do expect them to try to do something about Football Racism.

it's like singing "we all live in a yellow submarine" but not actually living in a yellow submarine?

what sort of pash is being spouted about fruit gums

He's dealing in a difficult subject and often gets confused. A bit like last night when he got his head handed to him on a platter by the English lads whilst trying to make a joke about 3x0 equalling 3.

Haha Everton have won treble the amount of PL titles as Liverpool. It's mathematically correct

it would never be correct because Liverpool has also won the same number of trophies!

Yes..that's kind of what they were trying to tell him.

Yeah and Everton have won 3x that many PL titles. arguably 4x.

posted on 16/9/19

Actually now that I think about it, it's closer to 5x as many. Prove me wrong

Ah so Everton have indeed won 3x as many as Liverpool because 3x0=0 and that's the number Liverpool have won? Thanks for clearing that up.

what's the difference between racism and football racism?

Is it like the difference between an @rse and a smart @rse?

Who knows?

Wish I had thought of that.
I guess that's the difference.

Agree with your sentiments though. His formulaic comedy used to be funny when he was Barry Smith. Since then. Not so much.

Apart from starting to spell Jack Henry wrong when he signed for Celtic. And a couple of other occasions.
