    Mate, don’t use that word. That’s really obnoxious. I thought we were better than that.

        You don’t know the difference between a slur and a curse word? Most people learn the difference by around age 6.

        That’s not the line though. Some words are not used for a reason, everyone understands it. It’s not some magical incomprehensible mystery, it’s a basic human decency.

        I know I’m probably seen as an asshole, but it’s so easy to trigger people when you don’t actually give a fuck. All I did was basically ma*splain why the poster above used asterisks. Sometimes the word we want to use feels perfect even tho it makes us uncomfortable
