In reply to the discussion: Dear Kanye West [View all]Violet_Crumble
(36,385 posts)I remember a few months ago there was a whole lot of exploding heads over a clip of a government minister (male) in Parliament calling the opposition leader (male) the C word. It set off a thread of hundreds of outraged posts, most of them ignoring that this was said in Australia where the word's not as offensive as it is in the US and is used differently.
Twat's the same thing in the UK. Shirley Manson's Scottish so why should she be expected to cater for sensitive segments of the US population on her Facebook page? Anyway, her sentiment's spot on. Kanye's a bit of a wanker behaving like that and trying to spoil things for Beck (yes and before that even Taylor Swift even though I'm no fan of hers unlike with Beck and Garbage). The only thing that would have been wankier would have been if Kanye had done that to Thom Yorke.
And Garbage? OMG, I so loved them back in the 90's.
