    Don’t call other people stupid just because they see beyond your attempt to be clever.

    You think I’m trying to be clever by speaking my own language?

    You think I speak my own language to seem “edgy”?

    The word “faggot” on reddit gets site-wide deleted which means even saying it in the UK subs where people will know the meaning it would get deleted. Yes it’s happened and that’s fucking moronic.

    It’d be like banning Spaniards from their own subs for saying "Tiene negro gato ".

      We speak the same fucking language. Your metafore of Spanish and negro is irrelevant. You guys seriously run around, on what is an AMERICAN platform and think that the word of choice for a cigarette, a smoke, a stogey, is “faggot”? Not fag, but faggot? That is the word you want to use? Even though you have many other choices of words, that is it? And you are surprised?

      I remember elementary school when we laughed about fag meaning a cigarette. Then I turned 8.

      No but like seriously, I guess maybe I am missing some perspective. You guys just like use it in commonplace? Like, “Hey Benedict, I’m gonna go suck on this faggot over here” or “Hey Charles, it’s time for my fag break”
