So much of what was child's play back then is clearly abhorrent by any standards now.


Here is a whole page dedicated to STQ and variations. Ppl of different ages from different places chiming in. Most didn't think it had a sexual connotation - at least at the time.

Derogatory references to minorities,... you guys think you were just cute kids, reality is that you were little bigots and today you are not self-aware enough to see what you were, or you can see it but just won’t admit it.

At least mrbill admits to being a nasty bigot as a child and maintaining character all the way through to his sunset years.

Oh bullchit. You are making a blanket statement here. How do you know who I am today just from my school yard antics 60 years ago? People do change, I have.
I stated it was abhorrent.

A few fun favorites from a UK website:

Sat opposite an Indian lady on the train today, she shut her eyes and
stopped breathing. I thought she was dead until I saw the red spot on her forehead, and realised she was just on standby.

They've had to cancel the panto 'jack & the beanstalk', in Birmingham,
Oldham, Bradford, Burnley, Leicester & Luton because the giant couldn't smell any Englishmen.

Bet these kids would think ''Smear the ******'' is funny too.

Is this a class issue? As in this elementary school is for lower class? Any adult supervision around?


Bunch of hypocrites on here...

Smear the queer offends so many of you, but the N word doesn't?

One of your fellow Lefties posted it, so it's ok? Typical...


apparently it served its purpose - no? you are offended? really?
sometimes guys post stuff toungue in cheek - to make a point. Obviously it worked!


Really Caj13? Of course you are defending the use of the N word.... You can OWN that, as you like to say! It's ok as long as it "served it's purpose" in your mind. You really are a POS! You and your type with your double standards....Nice try sticking up for your buddy Lee!
And, no, I'm not as much offended as I am surprised that he thinks that is ok to post on this forum. I'm even more surprised that a lowlife like yourself would defend using the word. [/rquote

Nope, not defending it in the least, pointing out your hipocracy, you have indignation that N word was used, but defend crowds shouting defamatory slurs as good clean fun! The point of the post was to get people like you to recognize the double standard you have.

and boy - did you take the bait, you shout indignation about the N word, all the while defending those who are using homophobic slurs. The word was used to shock you into your sences, obviously , it didn't work, because you still have not seen the obvious double standards you have.

Grow up - hold people accountable. I know its hard when you agree with Paco, and its hard because you know he's wrong, but you just can't admit that - can you, so you try and wordsmith and warp words trying to provide cover for your homophobic behavior!
I never used the N word - never condoned it - just pointed out it was being used as a tool to shine a light on many heres inconsistancies and double standards -

congratulations, you are the star of the hypocrit club - front and center with the spotlight square on you!

and BTW - I consider being called a POS and a lowlife by an obvious bigot , who is clearly mad and embarassed that he got exposed- as a badge of honor - thank you!

You are wrong on so many levels...

1. Where did I "defend crowds shouting defamatory slurs as good clean fun!" ? I didn't...

2. Was I "defending those who are using homophobic slurs."?
I wasn't....

3. Where did I "agree with Paco"? I didn't...

4. Where was I "trying to provide cover for your homophobic behavior"? What homophobic behavior was that? Sorry, don't have any!

You better go re-read the entire thread. Maybe you are confusing me with someone else? I was pointing out that Lee used an unacceptable word. It was obviously unacceptable to the standards on this forum because it got changed/removed. You pointed out that it was being used as a tool; I get that. Still unacceptable in my mind, but as long as you can justify it in your mind, it's ok. Did you climb up Lee's butt over the use of the word? Of course you didn't... If it wasn't for your double standards, you would have no standards at all!

Lastly, how am I an "obvious bigot"? For pointing out that the N word is unacceptable and shouldn't be used; not even as a tool?

Hard for me to follow your logic on that one! Typical Liberal move though...you try to flip this whole thing and make me the bad guy.

Deflect and redirect! (As you always like to say!)

The issue here is simple: you either think it's acceptable to be bigoted, racist, and threatened somehow by people who are different from what you see in the mirror....

or you are not.

What is so complicated about this ?

Fu*k is your problem? Clearly you are prolific in your bullshlt responses.

You made your point. You don't like me using the N word. Tough.

Get over yourself. Clearly you're looking to win an argument. You won. Happy?

Personally, I don't like political correctness which is what you are. That means I don't like you. So, fu*k off.

Hello all you “JJJ” fart smellin’ perverts ....
( that’s a joke )

I guess I got to REALLY explain meself as some of you have taken this way out of context.

My position on the PC thingy is that it has gone WAY too far . Any further and we are going to be an homogenized society,
is that what you want ? Not me .
It could get so bad that comedy greats the likes of Dave Chappell , Doug Stanhope , Louis C.K , et al , won’t be able to perform their best material .
I have a good question ? Have any of you even been to a Xolo ( Club Tijuana ) game to experience just when and how “Eh Puto” is said ? It is said NOT to one individual but to the whole apposing team as a taunt .

I’ve been around here long enough that you guys know I am non-confrontational and haven’t resorted to any name calling when others have clearly been upset , and said so in derogatory ways due to not agreeing with my viewpoints .
A perfect example is at the start of this thread Goat says “Flock you Paco”
My reply “ Thank you Goat “

In the digital age of keyboard warriors don’t cha think if I was a racist I would have written at least a little bit of evidence to show so ????


Wish you all the best, Paco

Here’s a good story from Dave Chappell’s latest on Netflix.

During the Dave Chappell show days , Dave had a sketch that he wanted to use the work faggot , he was then called into the office and was told that under NO circumstances could he use that word !

So his comeback but was “ so why it that I am able to use the word nigga with impunity but not able to use the word faggot ?”
Their reply,
“Well Dave you are not Gay”

His reply , “ well I’m not a nigga either “

And of note, but Not surprising , Chappell was able to say Cracker and Whitey with full abandonment ..

Nah....not looking to win an argument; only defending myself from being called a bigot by Caj…

Now, carry on with your racial slurs...your buddies on here won't call you out for it.

Hey Paco, apparently the mexican soccer federation doesnt have a sence of humor either: you better get to your next game before oct 4th! And please make sure someone is shooting video when you man up, grow a couple of plums, walk up to a player and call him el puto to his face - the sight of you and he laughing it up together will be priceless, and the perfect response for you defending "its just a joke"

or are you still going to be a coward and hide in the stands with the rest of the cowards!

so:
The International Association of Association Football (FIFA) recently announced that in addition to fines there will be other penalties: the first time the chant is heard, the game will be stopped for five or 10 minutes; the second time, the players will be go to the locker rooms; and the third time, the game will continue but Mexican fans will not be allowed to attend the next local game.


The first game where the new rules will apply will be a qualifying match between Mexico and Panama at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City on October 15.

Mexican Football Federation president Yon de Luisa said the FIFA penalties could get tougher in the future if Mexico fails to stop the chant, and could include bans on the national team playing in certain stadiums or even expulsion from tournaments.

De Luisa and Enrique Bonilla, president of the Liga Mx, announced a series of actions that Mexican football authorities will be taking to eradicate the chant.

First, they will attempt to raise awareness among fans about the penalties that could be imposed and remove fans who chant the phrase and try to prevent them from returning.

The Liga Mx will also apply the same non-monetary penalties as FIFA for games in the league. The new policy will be applied at matches starting on October 4.

Pacifico, your whole original was slamming "liberals" who had ddouble standards. I must have mistaken you for a conservative who believes in white privledge, and not holding yourself accountable. apparently i was wrong - welcome to being a progeressive, probably better to not tell your friends though!

Caj, I think that is the problem; you put all conservatives in the same box where you assume they hate all gays, minorities, etc. and that conservatives are bigots. While I am more conservative than liberal; I do have some liberal views on things. It's all good...

Another politcaly incorrect term?


Last week, I impulsively bought another rig that I thought would be a decent Baja traveler.

I also thought I should buy a vanity plate to possibly introduce myself to other nomads. The state of California would not allow "AKGRNGO"

If it's on my car, why is it considered offensive to others? PC goes too far, too often!

The English language is rich with descriptive words, new ones invented, and archaic ones abandoned all the time. Orwell coined several commonly used words himself.

So far in this thread alone I’ve been called

“Flock you”. By Mr. Goat

“Ignorant the and stupid”. by Mr. Lee

“A coward “ and to go to a Gay bar” by Mr. caj13

“an immature hooligan”. along with “bland and a dolt”. by Mr. John Harper

So isn’t the essence of being PC is not to put other people down ???

Me thinks some members need to do some serious introspection ....

I actually wrote "like an immature hooligan," but I did call you an "old coot." Just to correct the record.

So,basically, you're saying you don't like being called names? Is that it?
