o.o No. In spanish it means good afternoon. Look it up. XP

Konichiwa John.

Ahh, I love the standards of the internet. It's okay to joke about hurting and killing one another, but rape? Nope, totally off limits.

John. Pass I kno Speak Spanish... I barely Speak English... I speak more sarcasm then anything

Gotta draw a line somewhere Zaza. If I replace it with "the Sexual Violence Bed" is it still funny? :P

Depends. If you replace the word stab with slicing open layers of epiethelial cells, is it still funny? Vocabulary words have connotations assigned to them by society. You changed the word, and therefore the connotation.

...... yami's gonna wander out >.>

But Rape is Sexual Violence. That's what it is. So saying what it is should mean the same thing. Why should rape be funny when it is sexual violence, which is never funny?

Bye Yamichi.

@Cookie
Apparently people disagree with you or images like this wouldn't exist.

-jumps on Zazu's back-

I don't really care that people disagree. Clearly everybody's going to have a different view, but if nobody puts their foot down, then that disgusting rape culture will just continue to poison people.

@Cookie
Don't get me wrong. I'm not for rape in the real world, EVER. It is cruel and disgusting. But the reason people find the word funny is the same reasons that people find other words associated with violence funny. Cartoons. People didn't laugh about hurting and killing like they do nowadays until the emergence of Bugs Bunny et. al. in the early days of television.

i think there should be a level of tolerance when saying "IMMA RA3P YOUUUUU!!!" and a mutual agreeing on the fact that we are all just kidding when we say it.... tis not funny when rape is real :P

HI BTW WALL :drool:

*lurks*

Hey WhiWhi

Say what you will, but I can't see it as anything other than some level of misogyny in anybody that finds it funny. Women included.

And given how many women get raped or abused, even saying it in jest, you're always going to hurt someone, like Crazy.

@Cookie
I'm going to have to point out your double standards here.

Change of subject. I got my cell back on? lol... and blayne drove EVERYONE at the company up the wall...

I never claimed to be the paragon of innocence. Clearly, I am not. But I believe the context is condom balloon animal commercials that we were watching.

At any rate, it's been a talking point in the places where I hang out and I like to think of myself as a person capable of learning from my mistakes. What I said four months ago isn't something that I'd say today.

Just because all the other lemmings jump off a cliff doesn't mean that I have to as well.

*Jumps off cliff* I brought a parachute! <3;

Anyway. My point is, if we are going to ban one offending term, why not ban them all? Why do we have to draw the line at some random vague point?

.....-.- o.o -.- o.o Ignored... Hmm.... -runs in circles named-

It's impossible Zaza. People are people. We're always going to be inherently stupid. It's up to us to draw lines. If you just say, "Oh well lets erase all of the lines" or conversely "Let's draw a lot more!" Then where do you stop? You either have no lines or far too many. You have to draw it for yourself and defend it.

What kind of phone Paine?

Zaza and I are locking horns. Kinda hard to drags us apart so easily :rofl:

*pops head in before going to work* hi everybody

Hey Wicked. :D

Cookie: A slide.

Wicked: I love ur avi. Looks nice

@Cookie
It's because we both know how to factually debate without attacking one another, 8D. It's rare to find people like that nowadays. Most people just attack you, instead of your ideas, or don't have any supporting evidence.
