Seriously, I don't know why the fuck you choose to bash me, since I've never interacted with you, but whatever. You continue sending me your "clever" lil pictures through rep and I'll continue to wonder you seem like a used douche bag. Fuck you.

This was about your comment in Sully's rep, you wonderfully homophobic tool you.
Bro, I don't use the word "***" in the sense that I'm bashing Homosexuals. Ever. Where I come from, it's just another term that means your acting like a pussy. I think ST's views on football can come off that way. That's why the term was used, nothing to do with being a homophobe.
DirtyJosé;2779770 said:No, what you meant to say was "I grew up in an area where I was made to believe that using an inflammatory, hateful, bigoted term however you please is acceptable". Lie to yourself all you want; I'd expect that kind of behavior from 14 year old brats, not someone claiming to be 30. There's no excuse for willful ignorance, you ass. Kindly stop PM'ing me now.
Are you saying every person in Pittsburgh raises their children to hate homosexuals?
And why do you assume everybody you hate is a 14 year old brat? Just because I'm an ignorant twat, doesn't mean HHHeartbreak kid is.

This ironically smarks of ignorance. Obviously unaware of the evolution of words meanings. Classic example: Gay used to mean happy, then it came to mean homosexual, and it often now means generally bad as in "that's gay dude". Which does it mean? ALL OF THEM. This is a bit outlandish but, say the word run suddenly meant to digest something then that is just another usage of the word. So if you use the word *** in a context where it isn't a derogatroy word for a homosexual person, there is no offence need be taken, all that means is that the word has more than one usage. Besides the unecessary tone with which you write I'm sure gives an indication to the kindof person you are. Next time your eyes recieve a signal, allow the message to travel past the brain department before arriving at the response department at your fingertips, it'll avoid future episodes.

DirtyJosé;2780389 said:Sorry, no. Go call someone that anywhere but The Cage and try arguing that with the mods when they ban you for a week. I'm well aware of what meanings you may try to apply to the word, but it's still just hiding the fact that you're too stupid to stop using hateful language.
Cigar Lounge that shit.
Oh, and leave Jose alone.
"The word originated as a term used in a neutral context to refer to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun negro, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger, meaning the color "black". - Wiki
This is literally the stupidest argument I've ever seen for the use of the N word. No shit it used to be neutral. Black people also used to be packed onto ships like sardines, unloaded in a strange land, and forced to do hard labour. The people who engaged in the slave trade are the ones that coined that term, and it's almost an homage to them to keep on using it. It's a hateful term used to describe black people that has connotations of slavery. Why use the N word when it's easier and more polite to say "black", "African American", "Whatever you Brits call your black people", etc.
Yeah they may READ it as having it's alternate meaning, but if you get banned for using a word out of context then you've been banned for the wrong reasons plain and simple.
And fair enough it's other meaning is basically "idiot" and so is still offensive, but idiot is a generally accepted word in the forums. I mean you yourself called the guy you were talking to an ass, there are some offensive words that are accepted. I just think that the word *** as in idiot, should be accepted because the word idiot itself is accepted.
BZZZZZZZT wrong. See theoretically the N word IS a word you could use casually, but people are so over-sensitised to it's usage that they take it as an offensive term.

The word literally means black, black people are black hence the term ought not be offensive and yet it is accepted to be. "If you call someone that as an insult you are also saying in a way that the people that word is meant to insinuate are also bad". No, that is what a stupid person would be doing if they were inter-twining the contexts, you keep the two contexts completely and utterly separate and there is no issue, one context would represent a stupid person and the other be a slang term for homosexual. After all in Britain many people refer to a cigarrette as a ***, it is a widely accepted venacular, is that offensive?
People like to believe they are sticking up for others because it gives them the moral high-ground, but sometimes people really don't understand what it is they are arguing about. If I call somebody a *** and I intend it to mean idiot, and you interpret it as being offensive to gay people then it's you who has the problem because if the term isn't intended to offend, your finding offence that was never there!
DirtyJosé;2781433 said:No, you haven't. It's hate speech. You could mean "sliced bread" when you say "***" and it's still just as loaded as a term. If you can't understand why using those words are inappropriate, you simply deserve to be slapped silly.
DirtyJosé;2781433 said:So you honestly don't see how going "Hey, *** doesn't mean *** anymore, it means idiot/pussy, m'kay?" is stupid? You don't see how disingenuous that is?
DirtyJosé;2781433 said:BZZZZT, WRONG! Go stand in North Philly and start calling out "******" and see where it gets you, dipshit.
DirtyJosé;2781433 said:Hey yeah, it's also an extremely offensive term loaded with history of abuse and racism. Of course, what do you care about that? You just get to look cool saying "***" and "******" as long as you swear you meant it as something else.
DirtyJosé;2781433 said:How is a black guy, or a gay guy, supposed to read someone else calling someone a "***" or a "******" as an insult and automatically know the context and whatever bullshit definition you came up with was being used? Does that make it ok that you've offended them? Does that make it ok that you may have scared them off from the thread, or even the site, because they don't want to be around where arrogant and ignorant little mouth breathing assholes like you hang around?
You just are never going to get it. You are so pig headed that you really think that making up your own little reality makes it ok for you to propagate the usage of hate speech.
