To be honest even off topic(SNH) was getting dry. It's not been as funny as it was last year. I think there was a zenith about last August/September. Also i think it lost something when it had a name change.

It would be nice if you could refrain from using devisive terminology, such as gay, cigarette, homo, or any of the racial slurs that I have seen whipped out here lately.
Also, women = women, girls, ladies, females...
They are not Gash, Waste, Cum recepticles, BIRDs(I mean seriously, is this a UK version of), Chickenheads
Seriously getting tiresome. Very offensive, even to us straight folks who wish for peace and unity on this planet. I bet if I started running around yelling racial slurs, people here might have a problem with it--then why be a sexist bigot?
We don't want that, lets correct it, please. I happen to personally know of at least one person with an alternative sexual preference here, and plenty of others in the real world. I can assure you, you wouldn't walk into the city and start calling people porch monkey, or to the suburbs and calling people honky and cracker.
i cant speak for anyone else on here, but when i use the term gay, i mean gay as in wank. gay as in crap. gay as in rubbish. the term gay has changed for a lot of people, just like it did all those years ago when it went from describing somone whos happy, to somone whos homosexual.
as someone who has spent a good chunk of her adult life having terms like
gay used as slurs, i find that it's easy to
try and dissociate the term from its negative connotations when you are not on the receiving end of the more hateful uses. when you ARE on the receiving end, it's like a smack in the face every time i see someone use it to describe "things that suck".
in other words, when it's not you that's being attacked elsewhere with it, it's easy to try and defend the usage. but when it is you, it feels like utter shite. words have power, and have been used historically to demonize and (not-so-subtley) verbally beat people into submission. it's time we recognize that fact, and take responsibility for what those words may mean to someone whose life experience may include having been attacked with language.
defending the use of "gay=stupid/crap" by saying the term has evolved is refusing to recognize the fact that we know what it means, we know the origins and the negative uses, and that we know it can be used to hurt people. it's lazy, and frankly, unacceptable.
the english language is large and multifaceted. i think it's time we stopped acting like high schoolers with limited vocabularies and start acting like adults with access to thesaurus.com.
p.s. changing the spelling doesn't change the word. gay or ghey, it's all still a lazy, uneducated word to use to describe something that sucks. i am all for the recent idea of using "phelps" (referencing the rev. fred phelps, that religious nutter who pickets the funerals of gay people and soldiers) for a better effect.
p.p.s. if anyone ever called me "gash" to my face, i would rip their testicles off. so yeah. that one's pretty vile too.

Clearly you're not used to being insulted by eunuchs. It's quite upsetting.
But yeah, apart from needing to learn some non-testicular ninja assault moves, you're absolutely right.

As a general rule, only in the company of gay men you know really well and know won't be offended.
Not drunk enough.

dude, it is never ok to offend people. I joke all the time about shit, but I would never outright insult even an enemy to the face, because it's just not right to bring another living creature down--even to appreciate myself just a little bit more.
it is NEVER ok to harm another living person, for any reason--FOR NO REASON.
I'm hella drunk right now, and as I read that, I don't think I've described my anger on a proper level... trust me there is nothing worse than to be a bigot in my eyes.

i can see eunuch attacks as being quite unsettling, and also scary because i would be left with one less defense tactic! 'course there's always hairpulling i suppose. i may be female, but if you ever met me, that would be the last thing you would expect!
