That has nothing to do with the validity of what I said.
No, just the necessity of saying it.
First of all, it’s not even clear what Xploder was apologised about (AFAIK its for lashing out at a position that everyone is now claiming to not have taken. Well, I’ve taken that position, now, so the apology has been nulled). Second, even if he never even posted, it doesn’t negate the fact that a) it’s common for some to use “being fucked” to mean a “bad thing”, and B) it’s rational to take issue with that usage.
Yours and kidchameleon’s post were nothing but pointless obuscations and I’m pissed that I was was baited into extending them! :mad:
True, but maybe you should have clarified that before you called him a moron two posts after he apologized. Makes you look like a dick.
B isn’t a fact, it’s an opinion. And claiming, as you seemed to be doing, that using “fucked” as a synonym for being the victim of an unfortunate situation is somehow misogynist is pretty damned far from “rational,” in my opinion. But really, my chief objection is that you’re jumping on some guy’s shit after he already apologized. Tacky and classless, pizzabrat.
Whereas your post was gravid with relevance and merit.
I’ma hafta say I’m voting against you on this one, PB. Unless it IS a parody, and now you’re just Andy Kaufmanning us. In which case, go to it.
Um, this sounds like you’re objecting to someone pulling the bandwagon out from under you, when you’re the one who jumped on it in the first place. I’d say a rethink is in order, PB, or else just an acceptance that your opinion in this case is not very widely shared, at least among those who’ve participated in this thread.
Perhaps he apologized for “for offending anyone with my above post” and that he wanted to “retract what [he] said before”. It’s most likely that he didn’t have any “idea what the fuck [he] was thinking at the time” and that his “brain clearly saw something that was NOT there and just snapped”.
But that’s just a guess.
You went off on a guy for what he said two fucking posts after he apologized and retracted what he fucking said. It wasn’t a conditional retration, he didn’t mean what he said.
You aren’t cross reading threads with five windows open, are you?
Oooooooookay dickweed…I posted, as I said, whilst both, drinking AND having numerous different windows open and got momentarily confused about which thread I was replying to. BUT, (or perhaps butt) as I said, I did NOT intend to cause a shitload (heh) of havoc here.
As far as I’m concerned, it is rational to use the term buttfucked to mean a “bad thing”, just as it might be rational to use the phrase, “I got screwed over”. If you think that I was specifically targeting gay people for being overly sensitive about the usage of the word, then you would be correct. It doesn’t rake an Einstein to know that this board is overly protective towards GBLT posters and I have NEVER had an issue with that.
For your information, like I’ve never posted it before, my favorite in-law is gay. My boss during Desert Storm was gay. I cuoldn’t give a shit less if any of my children decided that they were gay.
So blow me you queer.
My apologies to everyone except pizzabitch for this post.
PB, did you walk out of Office Space at the reference to “federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison”? or did you laugh your ass off, like me?
Nah…that was me 
pizzabutt is just being a whiny shit.
All right all right. The pit doesn’t MANDATE being jerk, jerk. If PB’s sincere it might be worthwhile to get him to engage and elaborate.
No problem there junior mod. How is it that I’m being a jerk when I get blasted two posts after apologizing for my oroiginal post? If, and I say again, IF pb’s sincere then fine, but I sure haven’t seen it.
Next time you decide, yet again, to insert your oh-so-worthwhile two cents in, try to do so in a manner that doesn’t make you look like a junior mod, m’kay?
Dude, responding to your assholishness does NOT make me a junior mod. You, on the other hand, in telling me not to be a junior mod . . . are being kind of a junior mod.
I’m not telling you NOT to be an asshole. I’m just saying that you ARE being an asshole, and maybe there’s a more productive approach. And “how you’re being a jerk” is by responding to PB’s attempts to defend his position by calling him childish names, instead of ignoring or engaging him. NOt that you’re required to do either; this is the pit, after all. I’m just saying you’re working a LOT harder at keeping this discussion in the irrational zone, at this point, than PB is.
Oh, sorry, almost forgot to call you a name, Assploder.
Point.
Nice one.
But, regardless of your attempt to turn this on ME trying to be a junior mod, it doesn’t disguise the fact that you started this crack-conversation by calling me a jerk.
And, oblivious as I must seem to you of everything, it was the afforementioned pizzabrat that decided to call me out as some sort of an anti something or other due to a post I made AND THEN APOLOGIZED FOR.
I would logically think that I was fully justified in calling said moron a moron.
This does not make me a jerk.
I’m just saying you seem way more intent on PREVENTING this from morphing into a rational discussion–by ending your posts addressing pizzabrat with churlish and childish playground namecalling–than on allowing it to do so.
I’m not “modding” that you MUST do so, I’m just sayin you’re not.
I wasn’t calling YOU out as anything, I was making a disembodied, abstract, point. I used the word “moron” because you did, and I wanted use it to poke fun at the fact that you didn’t seem to realize that “screwed” is a synonym for “fucked”, and thus useless for defining the phrase (though I know claimed drunkeness, I still wanted to say something). I’m hardly genuinely offended by people complaining about being “fucked” (or “screwed” or “buttfucked”), but I recognize that those idioms are rooted in misogyny and homophobia.
You’re just letting him bait you the way I did a few days ago. Remember that party? Ah, good times. Not. Look, it’s pointless getting all wound up over his bullshit debating tactics–he has this irritating way of dragging everyone down with him. Just “no u” his ass before he does, and be done with it. 
If it means he gets the last word, so be it. It’s not worth it. 
Come on, what’s so bad about a little…
Um, QED? I ardy called last word on that other thread. Dragging it in here not only makes you look like a pathetic, weepy little toolbox, but it doesn’t even count as last word. RTFM, dude.
I realize that and am beyond it. Just so you know, I understand that screwed, fucked, buttfucked, pee-hole fucked, ear-fucked, nose-fucked as nauseum is all the same to me. My whole point with the apology was NOT to point out that I was “drunk” so much as to point out that I had a buttload of windows open and did NOT intend to post to this thread in the manner that I did. I got momentarily confused about what I was reading, as I explained before, and posted by mistake. It was never intended as a legitimate post. I apologized and now you decided to take issue with the post AFTER I both apologized AND retracted it.
I could do so again, but, I think, the point would be totally lost on you.
