I did forget to mention some of the “racy” language. It may offend some folks but in the context of the absurdity that has become mainstream poitical correctness, crass and crude behavior is now the norm to some inhabitants of the planet. Other inhabitants just want to cut your head off. See how I kept from being non gender specific there? LOL!

From the episode:
you just bully people and wait for people to say anything improper so that you can jump down their throats for whatever words he or she used.
-Randy: “He or she” is an agenderphobic microaggression, Sharon. You are a bigot.

I would recommend everyone go back to episode one of this season for Southpark and watch all the episodes. They’ve really carved out a ton of stuff to talk about.

Thanks bigdaddy45. I must not have been thinking. Maybe I’m “mentally challenged” this morning. Not that it’s a bad thing. I just need to ‘feel’ accepted. LOL!
