QUOTE(pikimoo @ Jan 13 2005, 8:02 PM) Gay means happy. Why is that offensive? And people don't usually say those words to be mean. It's just another way of saying extremely stupid. It's slang. Gay-happy Faggot-bundle of sticks or a cigarette But the point is that often when people say something is "gay" or call someone a "faggot," they usually are making derogatory homosexual references. |

QUOTE(Just_Dream @ Jan 13 2005, 7:44 PM) Haha what kind of person says "I know a guy who suicided himself!!!" WTF x infinity =P Sometimes I accidentally let "retarded" and "gay" slip. I guess by the fact that I hang out with people who do say those words along with many other derogatory/slang words/phrases and I get influenced to say it.  But I try not to.But I like the word wierd. :D *Weird haha XD I let it slip sometimes also.. Many people say them and it just kinda comes along. I try not to though.. I also think "fugly" is a funny made-up word. |

People at my school used to be like..
"You wanna go?" all the time.. but now after someone says something "insulting".. they're like "you gonna take that?!" So damn annoying. Get a new fricking phrase. |

it doesn't bother me much about the "retarded" and "gay" thing. because i think it has other meanings. but i don't like it when they say it as an insult. "suicided himself" is stupid. lol.

It bugs me when people say online abbreviations in person. Like the other day someone said something weird and my friends goes:
"WTF?" I was like, dude..no. It just bugs me. No offence to anyone, but when people saying things like, "It's hot as a mug up in hurr." It really get's on my nerves, because it makes people that talk like that look really stupid. My generation is going to look/be really dumb if people continue to use unproper english, if you even want to call it that.

I don't care if people use "gay" or "retarded"....
but i do hate when people say, "like! ohhmygawsh! i saw, like, the CUTEST boy the other day! he was like tan, and had the most Awesomest blue eyes, and ohmygawsh, like, he TotAlly checked me out!!!" eh, yah....if you talk like that. then i won't be hanging around ya too much. oh yah and when people use the phrase, "i could care less" when the right way to use the phrase is, "i couldn't care less"  i could care less would mean,..that yes you could care less, so it's not that bad. I couldn't care less means that your subject is so dull and stupid that i could NOT care less about it. |

my 5th grade teacher didn't let us use the word 'retarded' to call someone/thing cause there was a special needs room across from ours.
And yes, it is pretty stupid, but sometimes I use it. i try not to, though |

I agree, I also have a cousin who is retarded and I have gay friends. I think I say that in passing by mistake because of all the influence of people around me, I'll try to cut out that habit.

If you hate it so much, you wouldn't use the word "retarded", but instead something like "disabled".

I don't say gay or retarded. i think it's rude to say those words? cause it's like when you say gay. you are most likely talking about the gay people. it's like saying Jesus christ in a bad way....... your using his name as a cuss word/bad word so yeah hehe.
it doesn't really bother me as long as they dont repeat the words. |
