titty this & cunt that, I feel like I just entered some junior high school boys forum. I was amazed that an OP where punctuation marks were used to 'draw' a pair of breasts was allowed to stand. Often times, DUers will state, "Wouldn't it be great if democratic leadership actually came here & read our concerns?" Well, maybe the junior high atmosphere puts them & many others off. Apparently, this community is okay with DU coming across this way.

Just because we can say something, doesn't mean we should say it. I personally would like to see this place hold itself to a higher standard, but that might infringe on someone's right to fill their title & post with gender slurs.

As for the Rude Pundit, I understand that when your senses are assaulted with the kinds of vulgarities that ours are every day, a quick, easy way to feel better is to rant obscenely about the situation. But the feel good effect only lasts a few seconds & then you are still stuck in a crappy situation. I've stopped reading the Rude one.

Profanity is a valuable literary element. Its overuse by the FSS is akin to OCT meeting at Chipotle. TheBlackAdder Jun 2014 #130
