I don't like saying the word "hate". I've been trying to stop. Instead I say dislike. But its a bad word I believe and I think everyone should cut back unless you are in dire straits and reeeaaallly need it. Anyone with me? Starting today, lets not use the H word, haha!
I had a friend in Tucson who removed all words that were negitive from his world. For example a Bannana was a Free-nana because Bannana has the word "Ban" in it and Ban was negitive. When you called his answering machine he would say “I would appreci-love-it if you left a message” Because appreciate sounds like it has “Hate” on the end of it and he would never hate for you to leave a message. He was a weird guy.
Thats cool, but no one is perfect, I am sure he messed up a few times. What woudl he say when this happened?
yeah.. i think it´s kinda impossible romove ALL words that were negitive from the world... but it sounds interesting btw, i try to avoid the world "hate" too... i dislike that word
although its a neat idea, i think that language should just flow. If "hate" just slips off the tongue when speaking, its the right word to use.
good point chris, there is a certian beauty to words when they flow naturally and without pausing to think
I never said anything about censoring. Just something we should try (If you want to). And if you end up trying and slip up, whatever, people make mistakes.
