Favorite Emotes?

It pretty much just means "fuck you", but considering that a lot of people say worse things, it's hardly that rude these days.

 

Spoiler

It is rude as the situation demands.

We are growing in a new age where things are not so black and white, and neither people, words, nor almost anything should be judged in such a manner. We are finally approaching something close to a sort of enlightenment where people should begin to understand that a word, term or gesture is not always bad, it is the intent that can make it so.

I could put my middle finger in your face a million times mockingly and never have it be rude while someone can come up and demean you to the point of making you cry without saying a rude word at all. If you've ever seen a light-skinned racist person use the word boy in a derogatory way it may be enough to turn your stomach.

I would suggest that like all things you do your own research on the matter, debate it, and make your own decisions that should ideally grow out of the knowledge you have of the subject, it's application, possible applications, etc.

Cheers.

If anyone wants to respond to that spoiler (especially in more than a sentence), please don't do so here, at that point it would be a discussion and not just a onetime aside, so either PM me and a few choice people or start a thread in the Misc. section (preferably spamcan)
