Why is there so much Christmas before Thanksgiving has even happened? It's retarded.

	I don't know, and I think it's pretty lame, too. But is the word 'retarded' really necessary there? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Is any word ever really necessary? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leconnortemple 2014-11-24 08:23 pm UTC (link)
	Absolutely. Pizza. Pizza is a necessary word. So is bacon. And I feel that badass should be used, and often. But calling something retarded to imply it's stupid? Not really cool. That's like using gay to call something stupid. There are a thousand more awesome ways to phrase it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can approve of those words. Is your point that you're, like, offended? Because, dude, I really don't...care? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leconnortemple 2014-11-24 08:30 pm UTC (link)
	That's because they're pretty brilliant words. I didn't ask you to care. I'm pointing out that it's offensive and hurts others. That's all. You've probably got an extensive vocabulary that would manage a million better things than that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	black_violet 2014-11-24 08:34 pm UTC (link)
	It's true, they really are. But why point it out if you didn't want me to, like, change it or whatever? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leconnortemple 2014-11-24 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	I didn't say I wouldn't like you to change it. That's why I mentioned investing in alternatives. I'm just saying if you don't care, there's not much I can do about that. And you shouldn't care about my opinion, because hey, you don't really know me. But you should probably care about hurting others. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	black_violet 2014-11-26 04:52 pm UTC (link)
	Right. Whatever. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	commanderrogers 2014-11-24 08:38 pm UTC (link)
	I agree with you. Not only is it unnecessary; it's offensive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leconnortemple 2014-11-24 08:45 pm UTC (link)
	That's right, you tell 'em!! Right. Play it cool. BUT CAP I was attempting to keep an positive spin on it. The teacher way and all. But exactly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	commanderrogers 2014-11-24 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	I understand, and I also appreciate you taking the time to draw attention to it just the same. There are still a lot of words I'd love to see extinct from our vocabulary. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leconnortemple 2014-11-24 09:18 pm UTC (link)
	A lot of things changed in the time you were gone, Captain, but not everything. But then, I trust you know that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	commanderrogers 2014-11-24 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	Know it? Yes. Accept it? Not always. I almost cried the first time I saw the price of milk, these days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't really blame you there. I've seen several times, none of them are perfect. I can imagine. But we've invented the frappucino since then, and isn't that at least cause for some rejoicing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sure, now that Italy isn't trying to kill us, Starbucks is giving it the old college try. All those calories. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Incidentally, there is not one single Starbucks IN Italy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I was never much for Italian Neorealism. Partly because I never understood how it was supposed to differ from old realism. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Well, you're sixteen. You don't understand the damage you're doing, and it's not really about whether you care or not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bingo. How'd you know how old I was? (Reply to this) (Parent)
