Knuckledragger Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Dang. I got distracted with the arrival of the plow guy and forgot the joke I wanted to use with this.

acidbasement Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Gay slur in lyrics disqualifies Dire Straits hit from Canadian radio play - The Globe and Mail I'm pissed off about this. This song was the first one I ever played air-guitar to at 6 or 7 years old, and it probably was a big influence in my calling to musicianship.

Knuckledragger Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Oof. They'd better ban Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant as well, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knuckledragger Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Due to the fact that amount of material that arrives via RSS is vastly greater than the number of posts I can make in a day, I'm going to begin including 3+ images per Slow Post.

There is already an edited version of the song out there which has those lines removed. It was even on the HDCD best of release... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was even on the HDCD best of release... Sure, but is that a reason to ban the original? I think the trouble I have with this is that the word is banned without respect to the context of the song's lyrics. I mean, the song ridicules people who use the word. Banning it seems to me to be a step in the direction of ignoring intolerance rather than fighting against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spritzer Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Hasn't this been tried time and time again in the US because of UK lyrics using "fag" meaning a cigarette? PC utterly missing the point as usual... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knuckledragger Posted January 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Relevant. For some reason, this ad campaign never caught on. This guy looks like a hack. Check out the doofy hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Dude, it's the era. Before Gilligan's Island, people associated that hat with...I don't know, palm beaches, tennis, golf, etc. EDIT: Um...he's some kind of famous non-doofy director or actor or something, isn't he? @ self.
