When Will This Stupidly Cease ?

[Bobbisox1]

Furthermore have these ‘Wokes’ got nothing better to do with their time than complain, ? What a pile of sad sacs we live amongst , and when will companies like Argos stop kowtowing to them

Yep Shirley, so much more important stuff to address then this man/ woman farce

[Redhelen72]

Really Naomi as it seems the only people getting offended these days are the supposed 'unwoke'

[douglas9401]

Don't fret, you can still say 'two-man' if you want to.

I'll bet you a pound to a pinch of pig poop that it won't stop folk buying from them, now matter how high a rooftop they shout from.

[naomi24]

How so, RH? I've not complained about Argos using the term 'two man delivery' and I doubt the rest of the ''unwoke' have either.

[burlyshirley1]

Exactly Bobbs.

[Bobbisox1]

And I’m certainly not ‘offended’ sick of seeing it ? Yes offended ? No
And to answer Dougie, Yes I’ll still take delivery and if it’s heave, it’ll be a two man delivery :0))

I am with you bobby, all this woman/men malarkey but I am quite lucky in that I am coming to the end of my life span and will leave the world in a confused, angry, confrontational state with which I cannot undertand.

What is this "counselling" for kids who have got poor grades in their exams? Never had that in my day and I have seen little evidence that counselling has any part to play in mental health.

[Bobbisox1]

Sqad I know you don’t go in for BAs, but you’ve nailed it Sir

Slow news day?

We have had this whinging for 30 years from the same people. Then it was complaining about the looney lefties. Next Political Correctness was the buzz word for the old curmudgeons stuck in the last century. They have got fed up with that, and now they are obsessing about woke, a term they have stolen and use back in a derogatory way.

Most people can see the idiocy of calling a woman, a man in a job title. But these people have used the same incorrect words for 50 years plus, so kick up a fuss about nothing when someone else decides to stop using it.
Argos can call their delivery people whatever they like, and the Daily Mail reading cry babies can’t stop them.

[Bobbisox1]

Not as current as your becoming a great grandmother Maggie I’m afraid !

[maggiebee]

No need to be nasty Bobbin, personally don't care who delivers my goods just so long as they arrive on time and undamaged. What's in a name?

[Bobbisox1]

You serve being sarky up and I’m being nasty? Okayyyy

[TheChair]

What's really sad is how the AB snowflakes get so triggered by a little change of wording that will have absolutely no effect on their lives.

[Gromit]

Stuff like this makes a mockery of our language. The sooner it stops the better.

[maggiebee]

Yes Bobby, mine was a general comment, yours was personal.
