July 4, 200817 yr Dear [ genderless pronoun ]: We are in receipt of your inquiry and will take it under advisement whereby we shall form a committee to study it and "run it up the ol' flagpole and see who salutes." On second thought, we must delete that last phrase for fear of offending someone by mentioning the flag. Respectfully yours, Ed McMahon and the Prize Patrol
July 4, 200817 yr political correctness offends me say whats on your mind, thats whats wrong with a lot of things cant do anything without hurting someones feelings
July 4, 200817 yr Political correctness is just one more step down the path to total social collapse. In an effort to offend no one, we end up pleasing no one.
July 4, 200817 yr >>"Can someone be 100% politically correct on a bulletin board such as this?"<< Possibly, but why bother?
July 4, 200817 yr >>"Can someone be 100% politically correct on a bulletin board such as this?"<< Possibly, but why bother? I second that.
July 4, 200817 yr A little good-natured ribbing never hurt anyone. Some ppl need to laugh at themselves.
July 4, 200817 yr A little good-natured ribbing never hurt anyone. Some ppl need to laugh at themselves. and theres the problem, 50% of the population dont know how.
July 4, 200817 yr Can someone be 100% politically correct on a bulletin board such as this? Where's the fun in that?
July 5, 200817 yr can i use words like frick and vajayjay in the same sentence? cause using slang is totally fine cause people know not what you're talking about...
July 5, 200817 yr Author Gosh, the reason I started this is because I made one harmeless joke and someone got offended and started chucking a spaz. I just told them to f@#k off. Typical oversensitive neurotic. Edited July 5, 200817 yr by K.C.
July 5, 200817 yr Gosh, the reason I started this is because I made one harmeless joke and someone got offended and started chucking a spaz. I just told them to f@#k off. Typical oversensitive neurotic. every day i find more and more of those people and i wonder how the hell i am going to work around all those asses.
July 5, 200817 yr At my sister's wedding about 15 years ago, my black cousin and I got drunk together and we traded horror stories about his growing up 'black' in highschool and my growing up 'gay.' He played hockey, hung out with the guys and whenever he heard a racial slur, he would laugh it off or turn it around in a humorous way. His brother, on the other hand, turned every perceived offense into a personal attack and was constantly in the Principal's office or had the cops bringing him home. There is a right way and a wrong way to handle a jerk, but the definite wrong way is by becoming a jerk yourself.
July 5, 200817 yr How about we all dump the artificial and bloodless "Political Correctness" and replace it with honest respect?
July 5, 200817 yr How about we all dump the artificial and bloodless "Political Correctness" and replace it with honest respect? That'd be great, but I think that a good part of the population is too far gone. We can definitely do that here though.
July 5, 200817 yr How about we all dump the artificial and bloodless "Political Correctness" and replace it with honest respect? for people that can show that, HERE HERE. but alas, alot cannot do that most of the time.... and not everyone can do that all the time.
July 5, 200817 yr How about we all dump the artificial and bloodless "Political Correctness" and replace it with honest respect? for shame camino, what would all those lawyers do for a living when all those harrasment and whatever else kind of cases fall by the wayside? think of their children... who come to think of it probably get whatever they want and... yeah lets go with the respect after all.
July 5, 200817 yr Author How about we all dump the artificial and bloodless "Political Correctness" and replace it with honest respect? I've tried that, and the problem with it is that respect must be given, but it must also be earned, and so few people understand that anymore.
July 7, 200817 yr I've tried that, and the problem with it is that respect must be given, but it must also be earned, and so few people understand that anymore. Well, it's how I operate. Being "PC" is just so fake and forced. It irritates me no end.
July 7, 200817 yr I've tried that, and the problem with it is that respect must be given, but it must also be earned, and so few people understand that anymore. We're talking about just between adults, right? 'Cause the rules are different when they involve kids.
July 7, 200817 yr Author We're talking about just between adults, right? 'Cause the rules are different when they involve kids. Yes, the only kids I really talk to are my own, and their friends, and they get my sense of humor. I guess I should feel good that they have more personality than the average adult. I'd shoot myself if my children had the personalities of a dial tone.
