For all the precious women that get SO offended on me to understand why th by THAT word . . . it might be just me, but I have a lot of time for a gal that can say merkin.

That’s the thing about someone taking offence. It doesn’t matter why their offended, the important fact is they’re offended. It’s not up to me to understand why they’ve taken offence, but to comprehend that they have & then not to carry on like an ass and disregard how they feel.

Interesting, Johnsy.
While I did call them " Precious ", I didn't really carry on like an arse.
As for the whole "being offended " issue . . . . it's a very broadly interpreted issue. Let's exaggerate it to help show my point . . . . . I can wholly agree that something I/anyone might say could offend someone else. If I say it in a room of 500 people, and 450 of them are offended, then it's pretty clear that I have crossed society's boundaries. If I say it in front of 500 people and there is a lone voice of disgust, then it is also clear that society as a whole see's my comment as acceptable, but one lone person see's it differently. Who is right ? Does the 500 have the right to disregard the feelings of the 1 ? or does the 1 have the right to stop the conversation of the 500 ?
If that 1 has the power to demand their view upheld . . . in ANY situation at all . . . because they are offended . . . where does it stop ?
What if they are too precious, and their list of items that offends them includes : The barbarity of physical contact in NRL. The fact that media commentators had drug problems and should have been sacked. The fact that nowhere near enough Chinese background players are in the NRL. That the Footy show used to have comedy skits by players dressed as women ?
If I have the empathy to retract something I said because it offended someone else . . . even though I don't agree with them, and didn't think what I said was offensive . . . . .. then should they not also say " he offended me, but maybe he didn't think his words were offensive, so I won't mention it ?
It seems to come down to the age-old argument of left and right. I can't think like the left, and maybe that shows !
And back on topic . . . . a flop of Camerons.

These days the 1 offended person seeks justification of their offence/outrage via their own version of events on twitter. Gets some follows and retweets and all of a sudden a media outlet, via their current day sorry excuses for journalists, put it to press to demand action from/against you. Get some clicks, maybe a follow up story.

Used to be people would show a little more tolerance. Now more people seem to think their feelings are most important and everybody else should mind their p's and q's. Ends up with the overly pc-focused society we now call Australia.

If the Broncos officials didn’t want Kev as head coach then so be it. I spose it’s like failing a job interview, move on ffs.

Getting his missus to do his dirty work?? Who’s the merkin now?

The correct answer is always the Broncos.
