Re: The Reputation Hilarity/Insanity thread
Why is tool an insult anyway? I've never quite understood... as a tool can be quite useful.
Why the fuck is gay such a negative term for homosexuals? Wasn't the original meaning an expression of joy or festivity? Hell I read a couple of books that used the freakin word, some being a bit recent too.
The same could said about other homosexual insults, like fag. Fag meant ciggarette. You can't possibly have me believe a ciggaretteis related to a homosexual in any way. And faggot meant a bundle of sticks tied together. Perhaps there might be some possible connection between the two, but that's beside the goddamn point.
I mean, did you know that some people actually consider muffins to be an authentic term for the vaginal area of a female? Speaking of which, there seems to be an awful list of food used as sexual terms as well. I personally hate it when my eating time gets mixed up with sex.
Culture is a quirky bastard that never stops changing. In twenty years from now, a simple "Hey!" will probably transform into the aggressive request to get anally raped with a horse's severed phallus. Because that's going to be the next traditional fad in the next century.
