I sure hate to see you so determined to make this site more like DU, but determined you sure appear to be.

Your accusations are baseless and warrantless. You don’t know me, so don’t pretend to. You are a pusillanimous putz hiding behind a pseudo-moral authority based on nothing but your own distaste for what you deem a “cuss word.”

Where I come from, men use damn, Hell, and ass freely to make a point. They are common vocabulary words with multiple meanings whereas the “f-word” or the “s-word” are historically impolite in normal discourse.

The fact that you are incapable of forming a cogent or otherwise substantive comment in response to my original post indicates to me that you are one of the many “thread cops” we see on FR who do nothing but troll to start arguments with other FReepers over some triviality and altogether derail the discussion at hand.

If you wish to continue this palaver, feel free to FReepmail, but I’m not going to continue this thread with the linguistic litter your sanctimony continues to provide.

Good day.

Gee, I don’t need to know you, I merely commented on your cussing, little did I know that you were also this weird and defensive.
