"politically correct"

WHo decided that retard was a bad word?... wasnt it's original meaning a person with low mental capabilities... or something like that... its like someone woke up one day and said... "that should be innapropriate now"?

and why is it that if something is wierd i cant call it queer without being a homophobe?.... Someone dropped a pencil it rolled across the desk off the end mad someone trip and fall and they dropped all their pencils and one landed on the desk where the first one was.... and after they got up i said "how queer" and the teacher got mad at me... i mean really WTF?....

 

What exactly does that have to do with politics?

 

yeah man. i get bitched at all the time for saying stuff like "that's retarded". people need to chill the fuck out.

 

Watered down euphemisms to make things sound brighter than they are.

Handicapable.
Toilet tissue.
Attention Deficit Disorder.


Politically correctness is probably your biggest oxymoron and crock of BS since sliced bread. Being historically correct makes a little more sense to me... political correctness does not exist, it's just social correctness at the present time.

Well... let's take a little trip down the old dysphemistic treadmill. Kinda like scumbag... it's not really offensive anymore, but I reckon it used to be.


Ahah... I love that Interjections School House Rock on SNL.... I think it was SNL.

Why is informing someone that they are a used condom less offensive than informing one of their African-American nature or how struck they are by a "mental retardation"...? The world may never know.

Do you bite your thumb at me, sir? No, I do not bite my thumb at you.

Har har har...

If you need be, consult George Carlin for further investigation.

Time for another beerrr.

 

retard isnt "politically correct"

 

dude sliced bread is the cats pyjama's...








"what did they say before sliced bread?.... and so jesus took a knife and he cut the bread into many sections.... "Jesus CHRIST!" said one of his disciples "that's the greatest thing since......hmmmm"

 

i hate words

 

Yeah words suck.

 

Better than numbers, you know.

 

Well, I disagree with the queer one...you should be able to say somethign is "queer" bercause that is what it meant before it was adopted to be hurtful to gay people (Queer=weird, implying that gay people are strange)...

I don't like it when people call things retarded though...maybe it is just cause my friend has a brother qith autism, but yeah...calling things retarded is just plain dumb...

 

"just plain dumb"...

you know burby, "dumb" used to describe retarded/mentally challenged/what have you people too.

shame on you. idiot.

 

Mentally challanged and low IQ are different

Shame on you eddo

 

they were only homos cause they werent allowed to be anything else though, right? so most of them prolly werent true homosexuals, they just wanted to get some action..

 

I dunno about that.
The other day in french class we did a 'number search' it's kind of like a word search only you look for numbers (not dinky 1 digit numbers, 4 digit ones). For some reason I found it more entertaining than a word search, maybe cause it's something new.

 

Man sex was "clean". Sex with a woman was dirty...

Haha, in the play Lysistrata, the women of athens and Sparta go on a "sex strike" to end the war between the two city-states. The Spartan men's erections are so large they (the men) fall over

 

hahahaha thats great

 

i was talking more about the people being called retarded instead of something dumb.... i mean... why is it so offensive.... we were reading a book and the book said that the kid was "retarded" and the teacher read it as "mentally challenged" and I said "excuse me, but it said retarded" and she said "yes but we dont say that anymore" and i said "why not?" and she said "because it's offensive" and I asked her why it was offensive and she said "it just is... now it's offensive" and I said "so you dont know why and your not questioning why a word was abandoned" (i have an obsession with words... i dont like it when they're thrown away ) and at that point she threatened to send me to the office

 

you and your perverted greek plays

 

Well, I can see that being entertaining, but it'd be kinda hard to communicate through binary code...


And I wouldn't feel like solving Functional and Diophantine equations to decode messages.

 

Nah it wasn't binary code, hahah that would be so hard.
