Say anything about a group of people and someone out there is offended. Gone are the good old days of midget calling

What, a thread that is now on page four and has some good replies and funny banter is a bad thread?


It got better. You started by thinking a midget was a dwarf and a dwarf was a midget.

Bill burr said if he were a midget he’d want to be called a midget. Sounds tougher than “little person” which sounds demeaning.

I picked up this midget.

He's very well dressed.

Italian suit. Good-looking. Had a beautiful tall blonde.

A lady midget?

No, the guy was a midget. The blonde was the lady.

- I got it. - Those midgets are funny.

- Sometimes I like to hold a midget. - Yeah?

They're funny. They always want to sit in the front seat.
