pot calling the kettle black

There will ne no speaking of truths if others are offended by said truths

So if a heterosexual in the West End overheard a you-know-what calling another you-know-what a you-know-what...

said heterosexual might rightfully feel offended??

Can't see it Ratski, considering said hetero isn't supposed to feel offended if say... they... were to hold-hands/kiss.

I think I hear Per approaching...

That reminds me, are we still allowed to use the word "Swede" or has it become a synonym for you-know-what?

[rats19]

He called him a you know what after being called a you know what.....

Burke is outraged..........splain that

Well according to His Eminence Emperor Burke, Sedin is NOT Swedish for "punch me in the face five times in a scrum and make me look like a cowardly you-know-what".

So at least we know that.

Knowledge is power after all...

Dunno... maybe he's a you-know-what and figures Simmons & Avery are NOT??

Who knows....

[rats19]

If someone gets called a you know what..but they arnt..yet dont get mad...are they?

Well, that's a good question rats, but--

Hey, that IS Per!

Well then the Emperor has no clothes and the Emperor should master English before he tackles Swedish.

Speaking of the Sedins and the Emperor....

The Emperor once loved the Sedins, but since has turned to "pugnacity, testosterone, truculence and belligerence".

(I've been told there are no Swedish terms for those words).

Hmmm that sounds like a good question for...

CRAP HERE HE COMES....

Someone once told me that he didn't think the word faggot was offensive when you refer to a homosexual person using that term. His logic was that "well, you are a faggot aren't you? Where's the insult?"

That was his logic, certainly not mine. But he made his point.

However, with respect to on-ice name calling? I don't think its time for our PC obsessed society to start imposing the hypersensitivity and over vigilance of every day life to the realm of (dumb as rocks) professional hockey players.

This is the NHL not grade 7 empathy class.

I'm going to go suck on a fag.

There are some kids watching and listening though. And some heterosexually challenged Canadians, too.

^^^^Well said Rummy.

Personally I think it’s wrong to call anyone anything.

“GOOD” or “BAD”.

Considering the fact all things ARE relative.

For instance if I were to ‘pump your tires’ by calling you an “evil genius” WELL THEN in a roundabout way one could say I’m actually calling others at this site “goody-two-shoe morons”... by way of comparison. Who knows how many folks would feel hurt and offended IF I were to call you an “evil genius”!!

For example.

You may have just insulted examples, not that I can speak for them.
