Ever use the phrase "long time no see" ? PC'ers say stop it !

Ignore it. I do.

See now, placing your object before your verb is a slur against Germanic language speakers. :rolleyes:

LMAO Ask me if I care.

Whhhhhhhhhhooooooooooooooossssssssssssshhhhhhhhh right over the head it goes.

No. I just don't give a shit.

More's the pity.

Oh wait I can't say "more", it's offensive to morons.

Don't bother. I know a moron when I see one.

I'm offended that you are offended.

Personally I'm offended that anybody's offended about some third party being offended because the original offendee was offended by the offender.

This shit gets to be a lot of work.
 
If you call someone a basket case then you are being non PC to injured vets. Interesting.

9 words with offensive origins | OxfordWords blog

"Although basket case is typically used today to refer to either a country or organization with severe financial difficulties or a ‘person or thing regarded as useless or unable to cope’ (think of Green Day’s canonical pop-punk tune), the term originally referred to a person, usually a soldier from World War I, who has lost all four limbs. The basket in this sense refers to the basket that the person would need to be carried around in. In this sense, the word is considered very offensive."

Well thats definitely offensive that the offender is causing the offendee to be offended even though the offender meant to offend the offendee..
 
So my question is, how high a tree would you want to hang these fuckers from ?


Leibee: CSU has gone too far with inclusive language

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board.

If you’re a freshman this year amidst the hustle and bustle of starting college, moving in and figuring out your new routine and lifestyle, orientation leaders at Colorado State University introduced you to an important aspect of CSU’s culture: inclusive language.

Inclusive language includes every identity, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, etc. During orientation, we were introduced to gender pronouns such as “they/them/theirs.” This is something to be excited about, and most of us actively respect people’s gender pronouns, but as the semester continues, it has become obvious that inclusive language extends way beyond gender pronouns.

It is great for students to try to use inclusive language, but it has become an expectation of students. This expectation might not be entirely fair. We have been asked to get rid of the language we have been using for as long as we have known the English language.

We were told that the popular term “you guys” was not inclusive of all genders, and we should instead replace it with “y’all.” We were told to use the term “first-year” instead of “freshman,” because “freshman” is not inclusive of all genders.

After getting involved in residential leadership, I was told not to use the word “dorms,” and replace it with “residence halls.” Apparently, dorm refers to only a place where one sleeps, and residence hall refers to a place where we sleep, eat, study and participate in social activities.

A countless amount of words and phrases have been marked with a big, red X and defined as non-inclusive. It has gotten to the point where students should carry around a dictionary of words they cannot say.

In a meeting with Zahra Al-Saloom, the director of Diversity and Inclusion at Associated Students of Colorado State University, she showed me an entire packet of words and phrases that were deemed non-inclusive. One of these phrases was “long time, no see,” which is viewed as derogatory towards those of Asian descent.

Al-Saloom believes inclusive language is important at CSU.

Why is "long time no see" derogatory towards Asians when it was meant to be derogatory toward NA's?
