Breast Screening

[mikey4444]

I saw one of those trailers in the car park of ASDA today....you know the ones....breast screening. I popped my head around the door to see if they wanted a hand but no, they said that they could manage !

"We all know how much cancer affects all of us" Really? You don't say!

[anneasquith]

You know rudeness achieves nothing but, if it makes you feel better carry on . cheerio :-)

[mikey4444]

Ducksie....I had no intention of insulting anyone. I have every sympathy with any cancer, and especially breast cancer, as it has played a part in my family.

But this was meant as a light-hearted thread, and perhaps you need to lighten up a bit yourself.

[naomi24]

Well I chuckled. I do wish people would stop being so very precious about everything. Miserable bunch!

[mikey4444]

Bloody hell Naomi !

[naomi24]

Sorry, not with you. What do you mean?

[mikey4444]

Just a tiny bit surprised, thats all !

[naomi24]

Why?

[Sqad]

FGS it's a joke..."BREAST SCREENING!"...........it's not ALL about breast cancer.........cancer may affect us all, every part of the body.....so get over it.
It's a joke....in the JOKES section.
I really am getting fed up with this "sanitized" AB....

[mikey4444]

Sqad....AB will never become 100% sanitised as long as you and I remain !

[albaqwerty]

Naomi, might I suggest that Mikey is surprised at discovering you have a SOH ?
I may be wrong, and if so, I apologise

even in Jokes, sqad, even in jokes, sigh........

[naomi24]

Me too, sqad. We had people complaining recently because others were talking about obesity and that could upset the obese here, you know. Where does it end?!

[Sqad]

LOL ^^^^

[waterboatman]

Can't argue with that sqad. As just about everyone knows, I lost my beloved wife to breast cancer. But mikey's joke is just that, a joke. It made me smile.

[naomi24]

albaqwerty, someone else recently accused me of having no sense of humour. All I can say is those who have gained that impression are determinedly selective readers.

[albaqwerty]

Naomi, I have just realised that my comment could be misconstrued.
I am well aware that you do have a SOH
(gawd, I loathe the typed word at times!)

[naomi24]

albaqwerty, haha! No problem , (See I put a haha! in there). ;o)

Actually, I suspect Mikey’s amazement emanates from his inability to separate disputes in discussion from personal animosity – but there you are. It's a cross I have to bear. ;o)

[choux]

I find Togo's posts particularly ignorant and rude towards Ducksie especially. To tell a cancer sufferer "...so why not just get over yourself. Or selves if it fits." is disgraceful. Not satisfied with that Togo goes on to infer Ducksie is "...the readily offended and deliberately accusational." Shame on him.

[naomi24]

Choux, but Togo's right. A lot of people are "readily offended and deliberately accusational".

[choux]

naomi, I was referring to this particular thread. That is all that concerns me.
