Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

I'm not really good at the whole "Oh my good! I'm having a BABY!" stuff so no official announcement was made. This is the first the fora has heard of it save Rott and Haven who I know personally.

Vogue is one of the best pop songs ever made.

And, IMHO, certainly the best dance song ever made.

Right, but we don't pronounce "paedo" like that here.

Yeah, but we spell it "pedo". "Peedo" is only one letter away.

Anyway, I got the joke, and it didn't smell of "doesn't work for the average american" to me.

Banned entirely for telling FE that he was being rude and not contributing to the discussion. I shall watch down from the goon heavens.

It's been a trend in fiction to state the more loyal and unyielding a servant is, the better a servant that thing will be.

and yet, that's not true at all is it...

Just finished the beginning and already died multiple times. Which isn't actually so bad. Human Revolution sure begins... exciting.

But I really should be more careful.

I'm sure its been noted that saying "bum a fag" is totally innocent in the UK but very bad in the USA.

We use the Serbian equivalent, "peder", all the time, as a lightweight/joking insult. Nobody cares, really.

Recall N-Word Privileges. I personally hate the word, but I use it only if I gotta quote someone or I gotta make a statement. >_>

Reading these blogs I have to respond to...I feel a painful sense of arrogance reading them. Though that may be because of the grammar and wishy-washy rhetoric that I don't seem to get.

And relatedly, there are a bunch of words I don't care for, but hearing them censored in songs really messes up the beat...

And post-apocalypsism seems to be a really common topic in music videos now. How concerning.

"Hipster" is really a blanket term for anything someone doesn't like, anyhow.

You can't even write racist abuse in excrement on somebody's car without the politically correct brigade jumping down your throat!

It's because I told him to talk me into Facebook since I have the worst Hype Aversion now.
