I hate censorship so much that I really don't object to any word being used,
even if I don't like why or how it's being used.
Censorship just makes my skin crawl, really.
No....what I dislike is when people get hold of the wrong word.
Saying that they feel "Nauseous" instead of "Nauseated", for example.
Or saying "Indigent" when they mean "Indigenous". Two entirely different meanings.
Or saying that someone was "Floundering" when they mean "Foundering"
Or...mother of god, I hate this one...when they say something is a "Required" taste, when they mean "Acquired".
I once caught a clip of "My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding" on TV,
and the groom and his groomsmen were being fitted for white tuxedos
with fluorescent pink ties and cummerbunds.
The groom was not accustomed to wearing a bow-tie,
and he kept pulling at it and complained that it made him feel
....and I quote....
"Smother-cated"
I nearly burst into flames on the spot.
I also don't like when people don't say "Film" but instead say "Fil-lum" *cringe*

I used to be annoyed with those confusing the anus and the rectum, but once I discovered the sigmoid colon, I quit worrying about it.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

CL, how can you not fart?
Isn't it a biological impossibility? Or do you mean you won't force it out for a laugh?
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

She's a lady.
If she must fart, she farts flowers.

I dislike slurs and words used to express direct bigotry.

There has never been a fart that hasn't made me giggle, at least inside. Even the most heinous smelling farts are tolerable and funny to me.
Especially Tanner's farts. He can melt paint, but he hasn't figured out what it is, and it scares him. So you know when Tanner lets an SBD go when he jumps up and comes over for reassurance. "What the fuck was that?"
A word I loathe is "belch." One onomatopoeia that need not exist. Also, even though I have an astronomical tolerance for farts, I cannot even stand the smell of the most insignificant burp. If there was orange juice or Gatorade involved, find me a trash can.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

No no, ladies don't. Women as a species are worse than men. I leave it up to you lot to fight over who is whom.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
