Black caller on Big Eddie radio just went ballistic

[Warren Stupidity]

92. Actually your post was the subject of a discussion over in the H&M forum.

I suggested that rather than alerting, and then whining about the failure of a jury to hide the forbidden word, simply posting a suggestion in response to your post that you not use "tard" or other variations on the pejorative use of "retard" would be a more effective way to communicate.

This has had several good effects. More people read your post, for whatever reason, and certainly you would agree that is a good thing. You in turn have agreed that using the dreaded "tard" will be avoided in the future. I think that is a good thing as it supports my side in "Word War III, Rise of the Serial Alerters". I have been advocating for a lot less alerting and a lot less fainting over "words we find offensive", and that instead the offended should simply start a dialog with the offender.

And no, "bitch", even though it is now commonplace, will also cause an uproar.
