I always thought 'Ring insurance' was what you needed for a Barrymore pool party.......

Turns out it has to do with some road somewhere in Germany.....

Are you not familiar with comedy at all?

1. Read this, Straight lines. https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20111...

2. Be aware that i was tempted to crack a totally innocent joke about the pool having a skimmer.
But, you being such an obviously balanced and tolerant person, i didn't want to risky offending any pool cleaners.

Met him one night at a business function.

Spaced out, rolling eyeballs, sweats, and incoherent rambling.


Cue gag: "Yes, but what state was Barrymore in?"

Dark humour doesn't offend me at all.

What offends me is someone being seriously assaulted, dying, and no one being held to account for it.

The only upside to this rather stupid attempt to claim a disproportionate amount of money over a technicality is that all sorts of stuff is getting dragged up again as evidence and we get a decent reminder of why someone's career came to a crashing halt and has never been close to being resurrected.

Given that Mr Barrymore allegedly paid of two witnesses to keep quiet about something, then I would say he is pushing his luck.

Have any of you upset types got something useful to add about the actual topic?

Or do you just like having a blind dig on other peoples behalf and trying to get things shut down?



BTW, in best Family Fortunes stylee I did a quick survey among some people who you seem to assume would be offended and didn't find anyone upset so far.

A curious discovery made by the police at the time was that despite Barrymore being a smoker, there were no ashtrays in the house. Turns out he preferred to put his fags out in the pool.
Not funny, and not cool.
Of course it is, one of the best lines I've laughed at for some time.

Bottom feeling was what started the hole thing.

I think it's funny, as do many others!
Not me though tbh frown
Perhaps you should lighten up a bit, a bit of humour is essential for a normal life nowadays.

It's the sort of joke I'd have told at the time and thought it was funny. I was known for "near the knuckle" jokes and thought nothing about being a bit un pc.
Surprisingly, and completely unexpectedly, I've found I've grown up a bit nowadays and just don't think it's funny anymore.
Sorry rolleyes

Fine. I have no intention of 'growing up' if it makes me that dull, with no sense of humour.

I wonder what he's been doing work-wise since the TV stuff dried up? He seems to have a lifestyle that costs a few quid.

Some people on this thread really do need to get over themselves. And just to help them with that process...
