Good point. I use bad language all the time, but I tend to think that it is really more of a bad habit than anything else. After you swear for so long, it just kind of becomes second nature. There is a time and a place for it, there is a certain level of responsibility that you have to have when you use words like these. They are just words, but they carry a lot of emotion and can be very powerful. Just use it responsibly is all I'm saying and also respect your friends and familys rights if it makes them uncomfortable too. Our language is a gift, and we should use that gift with care. Just my thoughts.

I agree.

And this forum of all the forums available on this PJ board of ours, is where all words are chosen with care.

with the exception of SPANK.

and even then.

please refrain from using the word "spank" when i'm around. it makes me unruly.

arent we all glad that we can express ourselves freely here at the forum?

we all gotta admit that.

i must say though how its crazy how a black person could come up to a white person and say
'What up my cracka?'

then in turn the white person saying
'What up my nigga?'

and that person getting shot.

IMO its just a fucking word.the FUCK term is used by everyone.now see i think that you have to go all black and be a wigger if you are white to be able to use the term 'nigger'.\

that goes to the same with the mexican race.

you go up to them and a mexican would say
'yo whitey'

then the white person saying 'yo essay'
and then that particular mexican driving by your house in a white geo metro with all his family members in the back shooting at your house.

now isnt that fucked up?

that is in mo.

it's an interesting thing, that "ownership" of certain titles by different "clubs" of people. i suppose it speaks of intimacies the offending "caller" assumes and that the person being called the name feels he or she has a right to grant.

it's like i'll let my friends call me a bitch, or a wench, or even "muttha fukka", but, sheeshe, some stranger tries that? and i'm like, "excuse me? I know you are NOT talking to ME!"


even if the definition of racism becomes just an acknowledgement of the existence of different races, racist terminology for the members of minority groups wont ever become cool or hip for people outside those groups to use

because there's humor in the pot calling the kettle black, and potential insult otherwise

terms like cracka, or whitey? big deal.... i'm a part of a "club" that has handed down a legacy of racism with teeth... I own whatever insults are flung

cracka bitch? white trash cracka ho???... yeah... then you're calling me names and it's time to throw down

no... not really, i'm a wimp
