and off topic and in the sense of humor to lighten the thread up a tad. Whenever i hear anyone say "You dont know me" i just have crazy flashbacks to maury episodes with the outrages 12 year olds.

I must have misinterpreted your tone because I thought it sounded sarcastic and condescending. Sorry if I did.
I think what I was trying to say was more along the lines of "people who are immersed in a particular subculture should keep in mind that not everyone sees things from their perspective." Something you're used to hearing every day might take someone else by surprise or offend them, and their point of view is no less valid. Just like I might not be shocked at hearing profanities or seeing someone doing drugs or walking down the street naked, but I wouldn't expect everyone to take it in stride the way I would. Sorry I don't know what you're taking about with the Maury episodes though.
Some people take language a lot more seriously than others - I'm one who takes it seriously, and you aren't, so we just disagree on that point.
