Even if I disagree with some of what he says, I respect Strange Famous' balanced, more unemotional tone a hell of a lot more than what I sense is your defensive, yelling, cussing-out diatribe that has no place on TFP. If you could make your point with a less-offensive tone, I'd be a lot more convinced by your argument. Your attitude offends me more than any "language" you might use to convey it, PC or not.
To me, that's the point of being careful with language... not whether or not you use "man" or "black," but to try not to hurt people with the attitude behind it.
EDIT: I just realized how old the OP was on this thread... so maybe Stare at the Sun won't even see it. But I still stand behind my point.

Heh, think you totally missed the jist of what i was trying to say. Firstly. You're atleast 18 years old if you're a member of this website. If you can't tolerate someone saying "fuck", then...well, I'm simply speechless.
Anyways, I'm sorry that my "attitude" does not conform to how you wanted it to. I believe that if you reread the thread, and my posts on the first page, they all clearly state my opinion. If you don't like them *shrugs* thats just fine, but they are my opinions.
Oh, and not to personally attack strange famous or anything, but he is FAR from "balanced" (just as I am). He is way liberal, and thinks everyone deserves to live in a world free from naughty words that might offend. I, being more realistic, say get the fuck over it and grow up. The unbias people on this board, by in large, are the mods.
