You might be a Guitard...

Remember the thread? You know, that first post that determined the topic that we're all supposed to confine our comments to?

Yeah, well this guy won it.

Aaaw, thank you! :oops:

Get over it? I'm fine, but we need to change things. I'm not alone in this either.


I'm with you:
you and the campaign still miss the mark, any word can be used a a slur.
Nerd, Brainiac, Know it all, Teacher's Pet, Momma's Boy, Do Gooder ETC......

all positive things really, can be used as epithets.
The Use of ANY word to attempt to belittle, demean, deface, embarrass another that has the power...

NOT the WORD.
Calling someone a Hippie, Yippie, Tree Hugger, Vegetarian, Meat Eater, Religious Drone, Christian, Jew, Muslim, Brit, Scott, White, Black, African, Caucasian, Cop, Politician, any DESCRIPTIVE WORD you can think of can be used in a derisive manner.......

Depeche Mode laid it out:
Invalid Link Removed – People Are People Lyrics
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
So we're different colours
And we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me
Though I've done nothing wrong
I never even met you
So what could I have done
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
Help me understand
Now you're punching and you're kicking
And you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced
But I'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel
From your head to your fist
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
 
@Andy_Madison I find it HILARIOUS
Hysterically funny, that you are SOOOO offended... when you have THIS as your profile quote---
View attachment 756944
as if there was a more even handed, Base humored intentionally offensive movie ever made (Blazing Saddles)...love it--- but it reveals your true colors.

You sir are what is called a Hypocrite

"It's True It's True"

Hey andy-madison is that schnitzel thing a stab at my ancestral home, the place of my birth???
Whitey???? Really?
Ha! Ha. Ha. Ha. That was a fake laugh.
Also, no more Blonde jokes, or Polish jokes, either. If were going to do this, we have to do it for everyone, everyone!
It is almost out of control this, PC silliness..
Oh.... and if you are inexplicably drawn to lights like a Moth, you may be a guit---.

No more singer jokes?
No more drummer jokes?
No more bass jokes?

Screw that!!

How do you know a singer is at your door? They have trouble finding the key and when they do they don't know when to come in.

How do you know the drum riser is level? The drool comes out of both sides of the drummers mouth.

Did you hear about the bass player who was so depressed about his bad timing that he threw himself behind a train.

edit: this site won't let me type the word dr00l, it replaces it with the drooling emoticon. Ha ha ha. It even replaces it when typing dr00ling.:laugh:
