Just a suggestion @, you need to work on your temper. You shouldn't loose it easily. Not necessarily talking about your this incident but generally as you get into professional situations, people will use your "loosing temper" thing against you. Let's face it, everyone wants to climb on some other's shoulder to rise. They will use your's the most because they know you will snap easily. Not saying you take everything lying down but be subtle about it even if you are boiling with anger. Talking from personal experience, snapping is not good!

Isn't it "losing temper"?

[Spike 12,049]

Isn't it "losing temper"?

Yes.

Yup, spelling mistake.

What kind of society are you talking about? In some parts of the world it is accepted to discriminate or persecute people for whatever reasons that aren't socially accepted, do you accept that? In North Korea if you make fun of your political leaders, you will get severely punished or killed. So are you using a social example that fits your argument while casually neglecting the notion of common decency and moral ethics, basically establishing the "others do it, why can't I?" habit of action. Which, may I add, is a huge reason why the society in general has become this cynical and hypocritical bubble we live in today.

FYI in many developed countries such words can be legally interpreted as humiliating, degrading and mental violence, actions for which in many societies a person can be held accountable in a court of law. Come back when you own a comedy show and have all the legal grounds to do so. Meanwhile just accept that your criticism towards me reeked of double standards.

EDIT: One more point I would like to make. Look, there is a difference between parodying people and straight up insulting and disrespecting them. The comedy shows you talk about mostly do just that - parody, while remaining respectful. The kind of comedies that simply takes a human being and stamps it to dirt, well, they may sound funny to you until you yourself become a subject of ridicule. Only bitter and miserable scum genuinely enjoy them.

Think about it, how would you feel if you found out that there is a whole thread dedicated to you in a forum, where its only purpose is to see how creatively people can mock your appearance. Would you think "well, this fucked up society enjoys it, so I better dig my head into the sand and take it from behind like a proper bitch."?

Now you are just arguing for the sake of arguing

I made a comment about two anonymous women implying that they are ugly, which I still think they are. It was offensive to them, yes, but it was a joke because it was meant to make people laugh. You can talk around in circles all you want, but that is still accepted by most societies in the world. Do you think Jay Leno, or John Stewart, or Steven Colbert..etc made the success they have now by making knock-knock jokes? They made it by making fun of people behind their backs and people love it.

Your comments yesterday were rude and offensive and said straight to the member's face. There is no need for all the moral analysis because the simple fact is, that is against forum rules.

As a moderator, I am asking you to, please, refrain from making posts that could be found offensive by other members in the future.

Thank you.

How to put spolier tab?

EDIT: Got it!

Say sorry, have a man hug, shake hands and get on with it.

Be a man.

No, fuck that bullshit. I refuse to compromise with that cunt. He is cunt, has always been a cunt and the only thing that will change is that he might have some cunt kids or turn into a bigger cunt. The group was of four members, I spoke with the Tutor and now the group has been split in half. If only it were High School and not University, I could get away with punching his face. I pay to go to this fucking university, I don't pay to get fucked around by some big nosed curly haired cunt.

Oh goodness it must have been quite a row.

It was worse in my head than it was in real life. It was just the cherry on top of a lot of other stuff.

I don't like cherries. Why would anyone want them on top of a cake, I don't get it?!

Wait, isn't that the expression "cherry on top of the cake"? Seriously, I'm not sure if that is the expression or not!
