Just a thought, but haven't you been told off for posting them before on CW?

Don't think so. At least I hope not.

Got my knuckles rapped for my "naked bloke tied to tree" gag IIRC.

That's one of my all time faves. Here's a couple I'm pretty sure I've contributed to the "Joke Of The Day" thread, but anyway.

Q. What's yellow and tastes like piss?
A. Piss.

Q. What should you do if you have a rubber trumpet?
A. Join a rubber band.

Ba-doom-tsshhhh.

I find both of these jokes hilarious and so do all my friends. Absolute classics.

I don't think that BB is homophobic mate, he just had a couple of jokes that he thought were funny.

As the post has been reported I'll apologise now for any offence caused to cdm or any other gay members.

Yes, that was a cheap shot, but the first part is sincere. However two inoffensive jokes which turn on (admittedly weak) puns are no more homophobic than Englishmen, Irishmen & Scotsmen jokes are racist or blonde jokes are sexist.

Exactly.

So according to CDM logic me finding those jokes funny means I'm racist?

Not a hit out at CDM that isn't.

Haha, love the implications caused by the wording of the first sentence.

Entirely deliberate (see my "cheap shot" remark).

But I am serious when I say I apologise for any offence caused.
