2014 WORLD CUP - SOCCER IS GHEY PART DOIS.

[Powdered Toast Man]

Well I sure didn't think this thread would make it to double digits before it got ruined but hey good job everyone. We'll try this again in four years.

Ruined?  How could it be ruined by a slur against homosexuals when the title says "...SOCCER IS GHEY..."

Sigh. Because "ghey" is the mocking term used to mock those who use "gay" as a pejorative. It's like Internet Meta-Humor 101.

I think this got out of hand. I certainly don't think soccer is gay. Or ghey. Or faggy. So, I used faggy in a thread that mocks mockers of soccer that call it gay. I thought maybe I was in bounds there. Oh well, better luck never.

Good try everyone.

So you're in a Probationary T-Dubbs situation over the Taliban thing until such time as we decide you're not a racist prick. I can't say for sure how long that will take.



Til then, you can tread lightly on the slurs. Or not. Your call.

I honestly don't care that much. I was just saying that maybe there are funnier ways to say funny things. But yes, it probably went down the wrong track and I could have been more clear.

[Quality Start Machine]

You fucking homo.

[CBStew]

You fucking homo.

Do you have an extra onion that I can borrow?

I think you were plenty clear and I agree with what you said. The "calling someone gay as an insult" thing has run it's course as both an actual thing and an ironic thing. It's just weird and unfunny to toss a word like "fag" around like it's going out of style. Just stop it.

I'll sit back and wait to be given an honorary PC Police badge and apologize in advance for treading on everyone's 1st Amendment rights.

So anyway the games were fucking nuts today again. That Mexico trying to outscore Brazil thing was terrifying. As it stands the Mexicans will have to beat the Dutch and that's a tall order. That's going to be fantastic to see.

My kingdom for a US-Mexico tilt in the knockouts.

EDIT: The badge does in fact say "PC Police" on it.

You see? Soccer ruins lives, people.

Outstanding.

Not ghey, or gay, or geigh.



Just a yellow card for this?  I'm no soccer expert, but that looks like red card territory to me.
