Just a few words

If I say nothing else today, let me just say this:

There is no such thing as "reverse discrimination". Discrimination is discrimination. Period.
Thank you.

Jodi, for the love of god, GET OVER IT!!!

I only made those comments because your "date-nut" bread contained neither dates, nor nuts, and not, I reapeat NOT because you're Korean.

Geez.

That's right. It's only racism if it comes upon a history of slavery and/or repression. If you haven't been abusing someone for centuries, then it is still acceptable, like small children are allowed to paint on the walls because they are still young.

Oh didn't you hear? Only "certain groups" can be discriminated against. The rest of us just have to grin and bear it.

Hmmm I like "fucktard". It has that blunt American brashness about it, that's so refreshing.

Then again, we must be careful not to over use the f-word, in case it loses its potency by becoming too familiar.

LA, fucktard is the preferred term.

Jodi - YES! YES YES YES YES YES! (Damn, sounds like I was in the throes of ecstacy. That's what happens when someone nails it. IT .....not me. I have a whole other list of things I yell for that.)

Max - that's my least favorite "word"....especially when used be highly edumicated people. Irregardless.........sheesh!

Um.. isn't using the word 'retard' a form of discrimination? Or perhaps it's just not PC. :) Personally, I prefer fucktard... but that's my own form of discrimination. ;)

Oh man, have I had a LOT of caffeine this morning! Being Sunday, I have time to craft a fine European Latté, using weapons-grade espresso.

It's so good, I took a picture. check my site for a look.

Don't fret, erika. I encourage caffeinated comments.

However, I prefer my discrimination grilled, not boiled down. It tastes better that way.

Offered by: Jodi on September 8, 2002 2:26 PM

I've never thought about that -- you're right. I just assumed it meant people who had typically been discriminated against turning on the people who have discriminated against them -- but when it's boiled down, it's all discrimination...

which is exactly what you just said, but I've had a lot of coffee already this morning, and well, yeah.

Oh God yes!

I hate these retards, who use that phrase. I've also heard, "Reverse racism", to describe non-whites being rude about whites.

Duh! It's all racism.

It's as dumb as that made-up word, "irregardless".

What the fuck does that mean? The word is 'regardless' people. It means, without regard.

'Irregardless', could be taken to mean, "not without regard", which would be a pointless double-negative, however, it's never used in that sense. It's used by idiots who mean 'regardless'.
