I guess I missed something in the busy days at the end of the semester...

You may - or may not - find your answer here.

 

[Wannaplan?]

Haven't you ever seen Invasion of the Body Snatchers?

Thanks, SGB

No kidding. Maybe he and bturk ran off together to take that gay cruise. Perhaps we'll see them holding hands on MTV tonight.

All right, to be honest and maybe I'm the only one who feels this way, but the word "fag" is a little overused around here. I know this is a public forum and people can say what they please, but from where I come from this is considered offensive and is not something to expect from an educated group of people.

You never know who out there might be gay. I'm not beating a PC drum. My sister is homosexual and I hear stories all the time of the slurs and discrimination she and other gays face. I know it's an unfortunate fact of life and words like "fag," nor discrimination will ever go away.

I was at a Red Sox game last night and I probably heard "fag" or "faggot" hurled at the other team's players at least 20 times. I think that's terrible. I'm not accusing anyone here of being ignorant or discriminatory, I just wanted to say how people can see such comments. Thanks.

Lighten up, Francis.

I concur with Greenescapist. I think the "joke" is long over and it has been worn quite thin by now. Let's move on.

 

[Planderella]

Lighten up, Francis.

I don't think it's a question of lightening up but being respectful of other people. The joke has long lost its significance and is completely lost on newcomers and guests of Cyburbia.

Can we still use the "F" word to refer to cigarettes?

i.e. - "That f** left a bad taste in my mouth."

I agree (sorry british cigarrettes)

 

[donk]

....or meatballs?

What Planderella said. This friendly inside joke might be lost on some others here. I don't want to see posts along the lines of "wink wink nudge nudge" censored, but I don't want to see flame wars (as opposed to friendly debate) and misunderstanding, either.

Thread closed. I'm starting a new thread specifically for discussion on the "f" word, and how it's used in the Cyburbia forums.
