haha .... introducing Richard Turpin esquire

OMG this made me laugh , these people need to butt out of trying to change everything to suit them. No one ever heard of Richard Turpin :joker::joker: Dick is known by all.

The nickname of Dick for Richard has no connotations with a penis and as such its the people who are complaining who are making that connection themselves

have a look in the mirror you thick twats

:facepalm:

Sounds more like conservative Helen Lovejoy types which are not at all woke. Can't pass up the opportunity to use it for clickbait though.

The Slim Reaper 09-08-2022 09:47 AM

Not a single quote from a woke parent, yet loads of quotes from weirdos offended by something for which there is no evidence. Looks like nothing more than a way to drum up business tbh.

Niamh. 09-08-2022 09:47 AM

It's not really woke though is it? More prudish maybe?

LeatherTrumpet 09-08-2022 09:49 AM

More like it was the "a woman can have a Richard" brigade

:hehe:

Nah, not sure why the paper decided to stick "woke parents" in there but it says that the parents found it rude which suggests they're prudish about the name also being a slang word for penis

Yes is that banned as well?

Alf 09-08-2022 12:09 PM

I find them offensive to me saying that the name "Dick" is offensive. My Grandma's brother, my great uncle was my Uncle Dick. How dare they be so offensive to me, shame on them.

Oliver_W 10-08-2022 05:57 PM

Oh c'mon :joker: it's more "Karen" than "woke".

Mystic Mock 10-08-2022 06:27 PM

I don't know if this is woke tbh.

These parents groups since the dawn of time have always tried to be the fun police.

From Psycho to Halloween to A Nightmare On Elm Street to GTA to Dexter to now Dick, parents have tried to ban all of these products because "think of the children" I remember one of their websites from America tried saying that Grey's Anatomy should be given an age rating of 18.:joker:

Basically it's something that's always existed, for once the idiotic woke crowd are innocent.

hijaxers 10-08-2022 09:22 PM

Well they've been told to shut up and go away , shame the snowflakes don't just melt and cool us all down.

Alf 10-08-2022 09:59 PM

£18 to visit York Dungeon

Highway robbery.

They should be ashamed, even Dick Turpin wore a mask.
