To give this thread a valid topic, what are your favourite insults?
because staff got rid of them
I call my best friend gay. But then again, he IS gay. (He even has a job in a Gay Bar, where he gets a ridiculously large amount AND gets free drinks.)
I never understood it. Like when we got a load of homework in high school, kids in the class would be like "that's gay". What the hell is gay? The homework? Yeah, ok buddy.
I insult only people I know and that know I'm joking.
The is gay statement always works. since it's phrased more as a joke , then as an insult.
Dr Unne is gay worked fine as a joke ...
As he is completely not gay, and a serious person in general.
Hahahaaahahaaha.....HaQuote:

Here's another way of looking at it...
"This homework is gay!" = "I hate this homework, it's boring, tiresome, a pain, not worthy of my attention, it sucks completely."
Thus, "gay" = "inferior to everything else". Basically, using "gay" as in insult is like saying that all homosexuals are an inferior form of life, so lowly that their identity is a hideous insult to anything you attach it to. It's like saying, "I don't watch that TV programme, it's like totally black" or "Dr Unne is autistic", not because those things are true, but because you feel it's a grievous insult to make that comparison.

Calling someone or something gay isn't really an insult anymore. It's more of a way to express frustration. Just like when you say something sucks. It doesn't really suck, you're just saying you don't like it, and everyone understands what you mean.
And yes Big D, calling something gay is sort of an insult to homosexuals, but, finding that completely disgusting myself, I can't really get all that upset about it.

Generally, my insults are confined to such people as well.Quote:

Also, I saw Big D post and thought it was Del. It's already embedded in my mind that grayscale avatar + Cid's Knight title = Del Murder. D:
I try to only insult people jokingly as well. Besides, what's the point of insulting someone seriously. Who's going to get upset just because someone they probably don't care about anyway called them a name?
My D is bigger anyway.Quote:

I don't like when people use the word gay in frustration, but I don't think it's much of an insult anymore. I think the word gay has taken on a third meaning. Just like before it referred to homosexuals it only meant 'happy', and queer only meant 'odd'. Words and language constatnly evolve.
That's why the best insults aren't name-calling, but cut to the bone. I try not to use those on anyone but complete wastes of oxygen, though.Quote:
