She only has herself to blame, like she was supposed to be there when you were 7, not 33.

Yeah, but, like, could you imagine getting your ass kicked by Gillian Anderson? That would be hot as fuck.

Their prostate must have looked like a dehydrated pumpkin

The interesting thing is that there are surprising numbers of similarities between Trump and syphilis.

One, you typically only get either of them when you’ve been doing something you shouldn’t have been doing, but there are also a myriad number of innocent victims who truly do not deserve it.

Two, both of them will destroy you if you don’t get rid of them.

Three, you’re fucking anyone that you give them to, and possibly also their spouses and children and the future generations that linger on afterwards.

Four, they’re both much worse when you give them to the underaged

Five, the minds of people who’ve had them long enough get damaged, and in some cases they even are grateful for having got them in the first place, attributing having received supernatural powers thanks to them.

Six, thanks to modern technology, they can technically both be cured with a shot.

If you want to have that debate, then you have to address the concept of insults themselves.

It is the soul of irony to suggest there is a specific line that you’re not allowed to cross when you’re being offensive, when insults themselves are meant to be offensive.

You can find a bone to pick with any insult. You can’t call someone an asshole because there is a significant portion of the population who have either been congenitally born without assholes or who have lost theirs and are using a colostomy bag. And every time the word asshole pops up in their radar, they’re reminded of their plight and it is trauma-reinducing.

Calling someone a fucker is potentially trauma-inducing to people who have lost their genitals or been surgically mutilated and are unable to enjoy any pleasure from sex or possibly unable to have sex itself.

And I get that people who have experienced difficulties are different from people who are born with difficulties, but both of those groups are forced to live with things that they simply cannot do anything about. When they encounter aggressive language all they can do is take it.

I still think you are correct that we shouldn’t use the r-slur, but we also shouldn’t really tone police one another in public when the only method available to do so is to detract from a much more important conversation.

After all, the only way we’re ever going to get to a world where the largest concern we have is the Emotional Impact of what words we use when we are angry and frustrated is to deal with the actual world in front of us, where people are murdering and killing people for being born different.

There is a correct and good community building way to address this issue, and there is a “Gotcha, fucker! you made a mistake in your words, I’m gonna yell at you on the internet!” way of dealing with this issue.

The correct way would be to privately message the person and say, “Hey, please don’t use that kind of language, it is offensive”

They might have gone back and edited it.

I feel like people have forgotten the concept of face, since the internet is anonymous, and a lot of flame wars happen because people do not consider each other’s faces when they are talking to each other.

So if you really consider the impact of derailing a conversation about how Republicans and Trump supporters and fascist pedophiles are destroying the entire world and making everyone on the planet miserable to say, “Hey, you used a word that is offensive to people with mental difficulties”, then I would say that you were in the wrong for addressing your concern in the way that you did, not that your concern itself was wrong.

But my friend, my friend…

Everything costs more than five bucks.

Wasn’t the original computer bug an actual insect that was found inside of a computer causing a short? If so, that one.
