I share Slargos' yearning for the simpler, better times before the PC insanity forced us to abandon such colorful and diverse words and expressions as "uppity niggers", "disgusting sodomites", "money-grabbing kikes", "fatherless bastards",  or "damn dirty border jumpers".

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Personally, I never abandoned "cocksucking faggot" because it is so useful (even if  redundant) and not offensive to anyone whose opinion matters.

I'm going to have to go see a doctor about my blood pressure.

Atenolol  works well.
Lisinopril and hydrochlorothyazide.

Then again, weight loss and exercise is even better.

He still knew god-damned good and well what the phrase meant!

Agreed, he spoke welsh.

Yes, kind of a tough term to be labeled illiterate. But I think that there's a standard to go by to determine literacy/illiteracy. For instance, governments and UN statements give out illiteracy rates and such for countries or regions. It isn't meant as a pejorative.

Oh I agree. :)

Already too skinny, and exercise is icky.

So I'll take all the sweet drugs.

True.  Given that you're like Sam Jackson's character from Unbreakable, you should probably avoid exercise.

Is this true though?
I've heard illerate is a discouraged word but thats mostly because very very few people are truly illiterate.Most adults who need to go into adult learning are just god awful readers, not truly illiterate.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
