Michele 1 #29 November 25, 2003 QuoteOf course, that is hearsay... Hear, hear, what did you say??? LOL... Um, yes, well, I have written some, ah, "blue" things, but the only thing on that topic was rather tame. So tame, in fact, that I couldn't get it published (under a pseudonym, of course....)....so I suppose I don't have the, ah, experience to produce something a bit, ah, racier.

champu 1 #31 November 25, 2003 Well this isn't a law, it's just a request from a client. If I were in the IT business I would probably start going out of my way to avoid doing business with a customer that dangerously stupid. soon enough "SCSI" will be offensive to the homeless, "terminals" will put out those on their deathbed, and "logic devices" will be offensive to politicians. let's not even touch male/female cable connectors with a ten foot pole...

MikeMcLean 0 #32 November 25, 2003 Ok, this is way out of hand now. The thought police have gone overboard in trying to sanitize speech. Let me guess, next we will not be able to have male and female ends on cables (wouldn't want to offend "people with transgendered feelings" now would we).It wouldn't hurt you to think like a fucking serial killer every once in a while - just for the sake of prevention Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #36 November 25, 2003 Doesn't NAACP stand for National Association for the Advancement of Colored People? When are those darned racists going to change that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 3,116 #37 November 25, 2003 >Doesn't NAACP stand for National Association for the Advancement of >Colored People? Back then, "colored people" was PC, and "black" was a curse. Then the PC term became negro, then black, then African-American (which ironically does not apply to all black people, nor are all Africans black.) Hard to keep up sometimes. Besides, NAAAA would be too hard to say (and too easy to make fun of.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But "Black" is in again! lol It's okay to call blacks black isn't it?.. At least that's the last I heard. QuoteBesides, NAAAA would be too hard to say (and too easy to make fun of.) "Naaaaaaw! It would be just fine!" What gets me is: "Who's griping about the labels Master/Slave?" it's obviously not the slaves... uh, 'cause there aren't anymore... must be the descendants. It really gets to me though it shouldn't. Do these people want us to remove the two words from the language? Or will they eventually learn that "Slave" is a term that does not only apply to their great-grandparents? My Karma ran over my Dogma!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black isn't the only color. I'm kind of beige during the summer. What about Beige People? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turtlespeed 226 #40 November 25, 2003 Colored means all races. They claimm to try to represent ALL people, well, except the white ones, which is racist, isn't it? I'm confused. White \White\, n. 1.

A person with a white skin; a member of the white, or Caucasian, races of men. 5. A white pigment; as, Venice white. 6. (Zo["o]l.) Any one of numerous species of butterflies belonging to Pieris, and allied genera in which the color is usually white. See Cabbage butterfly, under Cabbage.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
