the language nerd in me always feels like, considering how many modern English speakers tend to speak in a dialect that drops or swallows the Rs at the end of countless words, it's kind of funny how there's just the ONE WORD that many of those people tend to think has a totally different meaning or connotation if it ends with an "a" instead of an "er," and it happens to be an extremely loaded and controversial word.

massively OTM

That would never be the case if it wasn't an el&c word. There's nothing coincidental about it.

(and also, if you want to go there, the "it's okay if you say it like a black person" subtext is something else I find massively infuriating and offensive about the whole "oh it's a totally different word" argument)

oh my -- look at what I missed today! The etymology of queer!

frogbs, your insistence on reentering and getting slapped is:

a : differing in some odd way from what is usual or normal b (1) : eccentric, unconventional (2) : mildly insane : touched c : absorbed or interested to an extreme or unreasonable degree

or "queer"

livin in my own private Biden hole (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 9 August 2011 23:41 (fourteen years ago)

just wanna flex my OG cred, I was called "queer" on the PDX streets in '85, a fair bit before it was reclaimed, but it was weird: the feeling was like "queer? really? that's, like, a word from another time, nobody says that"

Alfred, I find the above burn:

1. Grudging and petty in giving or spending.
2. Meanly small; scanty or meager

it's so weird to me that there's an active poster who seems literally to get a boner from the idea of getting banned

we've had plenty of these, most of them were just beaten into line or came up in the pre-sb era.

Yeah, maybe I was misreading him, but his tone kind of came across as "what an ironic coincidence!"

Alfred, bite me.

dutty whiney (The Reverend), Tuesday, 9 August 2011 23:53 (fourteen years ago)

save it for the gay thread, sporto

livin in my own private Biden hole (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 9 August 2011 23:54 (fourteen years ago)

okay there literally isn't a single thread on this board that posters can't turn into slash

CLUB PISCOPO (DJP), Tuesday, 9 August 2011 23:55 (fourteen years ago)

which explains the existence of The Corner thread.

livin in my own private Biden hole (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 9 August 2011 23:55 (fourteen years ago)

given the topic of the thread i'd say this is much milder slash than i would have guessed

king of torts (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Tuesday, 9 August 2011 23:56 (fourteen years ago)

"hello dan, i've got a board right here..."

Tyler collapsed backwards down onto the hotel's king-sized bed, his exhaustion tangible: this had been a long day. "Earl," he said, loosening his belt while remembering an old friend he hadn't seen in a while. "Where've you been, Earl?"

NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR COMPARING JJJ TO EARL

They piled in, buggering everything in sight

king of torts (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 10 August 2011 00:04 (fourteen years ago)

and boom goes the dynamite

CLUB PISCOPO (DJP), Wednesday, 10 August 2011 00:04 (fourteen years ago)

Bugger is a slang word used in the vernacular British English, Irish English, Australian English, Canadian English, New Zealand English, South African English, Caribbean English, Sri Lankan English and occasionally also in Malaysian English and Singaporean English, and rarely American English. It is derived from Anglo-Norman bougre, which has also given the term buggery, a term originally used to describe either anal intercourse by a man with a man or woman,[1] or sexual intercourse by either a man or a woman with an animal.[2] Today, the term is a general-purpose expletive, used to imply dissatisfaction, or used to describe someone or something whose behaviour is in some way displeasing, or sexual intercourse between a man and a woman, though in general Canadian, Australian, and New Zealand English the expletive force has largely disappeared; the word there now has a 'catch-all', almost humorous, 'Jeez' quality.

"The expletive force has largely disappeared"

I want to bugger whoever writes Wiki entries.
