I kind of think the bolded, italicized word is an attempt to get around talkbass's rule not to use bad language, and in this case, highly offensive, misogynistic language that is insulting to others who disagree with you.
On the thread where you accuse me of "harassing" you, you were complaining about this PC-world where people can't fire people with autism. No one told you to shut up, but seriously dude, that is a tasteless and offensive comment. First of all, it's nonsensical, because in the USA, you certainly CAN fire an autistic person, unless it is for no good reason, in which case, you can't fire anybody. And I didn't lecture you, or tell you to shut up, I just commented that since you harp on how awful this PC world is, not only on Off Topic, but on Band Management, where it has nothing to do with the subject at hand, maybe you could find something better to do with your time than harp on about that. How ironic that my comment offended you.
How would you feel if someone used that word when talking to your mother, wife or daughter? The word in question is the definition of misogyny, because it is an insulting term, based on a very specific portion of the female anatomy. So you didn't really post anything.
Talk about "getting around" something... like getting around what you said? FWIW, I read that thread, and I did feel that you were attempting to muzzle SF. Maybe you didn't say "shut up" verbatim but the basic message is the same.
How is "find stuff (i.e. something else) to do" different than "go away" or "stop posting" or "shut up"?
In effect, they're not different. Just own it man.
Own this: you don't know what you're talking about.
telling him not to be an ass.

What is your part in all of this?
That's just rude man...
Wow did you just say that?? Yep, you did.
So you want me to shut up too.....
What is your part in all of this?
This is the very definition of a pointless discussion.
