Just for info, the word in the title which caused offence is used all the time here in the UK as a stronger version of twit. It's just like a pejorative fool, honestly, it's a 'swear' word but it's not really offensive like that over here. You'll hear it in pubs, houses, on the tele all the time. Hell, it's said in my office on a daily basis!
It appears the context is different from the UK to the USA. Thus certainly myself being a British female I took no offence.
Indeed!

double indeed.
here in oz too... but then again we dont offend so easily.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say
What if I told you the OP was directing the comment at me. He will never admit to it. Perhaps that is why I got so offended.
"Perhaps that is why I got so offended"? After 7 pages of ridiculous ranting, and now you're not sure why you were offended? Yeah, I'm sure this thread was originally about you and that Byrnzie directed his twat comment at you :roll: Sounds to me like you just need some attention. Like many others have said, get over yourself.
And you're asking if something is wrong with me...?
byrnzie you should have yelled "SEXUAL CHOCOLATE!!!" and dropped the mike on the ground and walked off stage...that would have been mega..
i have made one of those words of myself many times. in fact, it normally occurs when i am in the vicinity of a hot microphone.
one memorable occasion was when my friends and i were crocked on a bottle of jager and we were signing people up to sing random songs at a karaoke night at some dive bar out in the sticks.... you know, the kind of place that has both kinds of music, country AND western....well a friend of mine thought it would be a great idea to have me, the most loudmouth obnoxious drunk of my crew, get up and do The End by the doors...
i did ok until the slow, droning psychadelic breakdown, and i decided it would be funny to go into one of the morrisonesque rants of "YOU ARE ALL A BUNCH OF F@CKIN" SLAVES!!!!" i remember everyone gasping, the music stopping, and i continued to ramble on...i was saying things like "kill the father f@ck the mother!!" etc etc...i saw a mountain of a bouncer running up to me and i tossed the microphone to the karaoke dude and ran. i looked over my shoulder and i saw the bouncer getting up off of the ground. apparently he tripped over the bar stool that i knocked over behind me. my friends all ran. we got out of there alive. barely... and my one friend was angry at me for busting up his game with some girl he had just met....good times... needless to say i have not been back to that place haha...i HOPE someone got video of it, as i am sure that it was epic...

good to see your self preservation kicked in gimme.
yeah i was really pushing it that night... but after about 9 jagers i feel bulletproof, so i tend to write checks that my butt may or may not be able to cash

Yes, there is something wrong with you to post that sign.
Why don't you just keep your big nose out of other people's business.

you post your crap on an open forum you make it everyones business.
First of all, I didn't start this, the OP did. Then other posters had to add fuel to the fire. When someone offends me, I'm not taking their crap anymore.
My last message to you ~
You're right. You are a monster! You are sick! Get help!
so the OP uses a colloquialism ragging on himself and asking others if theyve done the same thing and you take offense in ignorance that the term has different meanings in diffrent countries and even when told you still maintain a high level of indignation??? you even questioned the womanhood of one poster cause she had the hide to say she wadnt offended by that particular word. not to mention you try besmirching the OP by asking how we know the OP wasnt directing his twat comment to you... well is this the case? was byrnzie calling you that and airing out some dirty laundry for reasons unbeknownst to the rest of us??

No ignorance is involved. It's a private matter. Now, let it go, please.

You really need to drop this bullshit.
I have no idea who you are, and I've never read or replied to any of your posts on this message board before, so stop making shit up.
If you were offended by my use of the word 'twat' then you could have said so politely, and maybe I would have changed the OP. But instead you spend 6 pages throwing insults at everyone and now lying to boot.
If this thread really offends you so much then why are you still here playing the drama queen? There are plenty of other threads on this message board for you to post in.
Kat said something in another thread about posters here needed to behave like adults. Maybe you could think about that for a while.

She's now pretending that my thread about making a twat of myself at a Chinese party yesterday is somehow related to her. Or was she at the party here in China yesterday and did I call her a twat at the party and then forget about it? I was a tad drunk, but I'm pretty sure I'd remember meeting an American girl/woman and calling her a twat. :think:
I wonder if I'd used the word 'tit', 'ass', 'dick', or 'nob', instead she'd still be here pretending that there's some sort of private matter between the two of us?
