It's a common expression. If you find it rude, better isolate yourself and stay off usenet. -- I find it amazing how people/kids speak to each other and consider it a 'friendly' conversation. Quite frankly its rude and no matter the 'commonality' of it, it shows disrespect. The word Bitch is as common as 'the'. Just because people do it , and continue for years, doesn't make it right or 'ok'. As a race of people....we are DE-evolving...speech is becoming archaic, a series of grunts and zizzles....next come the caves. How about..."Your dad is 'misinformed' 'mistaken' ", Considering the utter BS that advertising uses to promote any product, I am surprised that anyone 'NOT IN THE BUSINESS" can figure out what all the Giga - mega hertz is all about. |

Wrong! as usual... that is a word referring to a female dog, used in the breeding of dogs.....but RUDE when used in reference to a person. Nice use of 'big' words,,, if your going to use them, put them in some kind of coherent order. |

Heh, regardless of your wiggling, the word is not profanity. Please continue to spew, it puts you in a category with a rare few. |

Lighten up! It's a commonly used phrased that 90% of the public aren't
offended by. Get a sense of humor for God's sake... Really? - I find it rude too. How about you get an APPROPRIATE sense of humour and grow up! If you find it that rude, I could care less. You need to unwind... The problem with the world we currently live in is that everyone is constantly offended. Chill out... Life's too short! |
