Does that make it a fart heart?

BTW, good one bhall - everyone who's offended should see it positively - he implied that a 20 year dead Senna is faster than Jenson...it is a complement.

I know its in the joke section, but if there are people (and were not talking about just 1 ) offended by this then it shows it is too much and as an administrator who has responsibility, it should have been removed. You have clearly taken no responsibility and I'd imagine you have let a lot of people down , including yourself. I guess people learn from mistakes, lets hope this is the case here.

Nathan and Mano should carefully watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjIuPSuYSOY and understand one thing - in comedy you don't judge anything, you may post opinion, but never ever ever you go and speak out for more people than just yourself and tell people that this and that is inappropriate or something, because you clearly have trouble understanding humor, I cannot understand how one could get offended by that joke even, when AS was mentioned in a very positive way...

Just because someone finds something funny, doesn't make it right.

Your right. But the fact still remains that people are iffended, and any civilised respectful person would realise they have offended people and remove the comment. They dont need to say sorry or anything, they would just remove it. Or it just seems there are a lot of kids on here and just like to start arguments for the fun of it. And seeing as there's a lot of this around on here lately I expect it's the latter.

I'm a bit distrustful of a world in which I'm asked to cater to someone's sensibilities because they refuse to cater to mine.

And I thought that there are grown up people around here who know how to take a joke when they see it.

The Senna thing is funny. A bit sick, but funny.

@Bhall, That is how it works.. #-o
we also got to be tolerant to people/religions who are intolerant..

BTW regarding the joke made, I didn't find it funny, nor was I offended by it 8)

It was one of the best captions for a long time. It's staying. Moderator's decision is final so no need to debate it anymore.

It seems Senna (blessed be his name) is F1's answer to Princess Diana. They are so venerated that people take offence if they are the subject of any humour and there's a somewhat ghoulish obsession about the details of their demise in a car crash.
