Bad language and respect - mutually exclusive?

[Colapop]

Interesting to me, that in the time that I haven't spent on here of late, the language of the place seems to have deteriorated. Is it a general lack of respect for another person's opinion or just a lack of ability to formulate an intelligent response? I generally try and at least * letters within 'swear' words but even that is probably the same thing. Intelligent well reasoned argument, comments made in jest and sarcasm really aren't well received (or understood) by many round here these days it seems.

Fuck no.........

who FUCKing cares?

[HenryDorsetCase]

yeah, fuck all of that shit.

[bogan]

Up to the reader init :yes:

Easiest way is to interpret everything as an intelligent response if possible, if it isn't take the piss where possible. If neither of those things are possible, time to log the fuck off :innocent:

[Banditbandit]

It has been said that an infinite number of monkeys, each with a typewriter, given an infinite amount of time, will eventually write the script for Hamlet ...

The internet proves this is false.

[Colapop]

That's just it isn't it? It's part of everyday language and accepted.
You see two guys cursing at each other in the street and before too long there's a punch thrown. Is it the anonymity of your keyboards that make it easier to posture without the need formulate anything intelligent?

[gijoe1313]

Cry me a river! Actually, if those who never met you was effing this and farking that ... I would laugh if they could ever say it to your face! :rofl:

But, yes, degeneration of manners is something that seems ever more prevalent int today's society(?) I for one, only ever use the harshest of swear words when I am really really rarked up (so it is usually a clear indicator to those who know me that I am really POed!)

Now get in the kitchen and cook some eggs!

[Stirts]

The language of deterioration has the ability to formulate an intelligent response!!

"Fuck fucking fucked fucker fucking fuckups fuck fucking fucked fucking fuckup fucking fucker's fuck."

The fucking sentence is un-fucking-punctuated and uses eleven different readings of the word "fuck."

Sir, I call your bluff:


...What the fuck is with these cunts that think they're making 'progress' by trying to forward their claims of Maori sovereignty? They want to fly their flag from the Auckland harbour bridge on Waitangi day. Who the fuck do they think they are? Why do we need a separate set of rules for one ethnic group in this country? Don't try and tell me "Because the Maori are the native people of this land" BULLSHIT. They are migrants here like everybody else. If you want to argue semantics, the Mori Ori should have their flag flown. Where are the Mori Ori? Oh that's right when the Maori came here they waged a war against the Mori Ori and virtually wiped them out. Ate them didn't they? But that's different to the European 'invasion' because the European didn't commit genocide (arguable point - maybe they tried?)
The point is that we have in NZ a country that is made up of a number of different peoples from different cultures the world over. The country (infrastructure, society, culture) was built from the blood, sweat, & tears of these people. We have a very proud history that encompassess a wide range of cultures and yet we give great respect to the Maori culture - the Haka, Maori place names, and funding for Maori cultural/education programmes. It's not about bagging Maori people they have a right to their cultural history, but so does everyone else in this country. Fuck the devisive shit stirring cunts and their attempts to make the rest of us treat them with kid gloves...

Now fuck off. :innocent:

I did say 'generally' but as is usually the case the inability to read the original post of any thread is lost on some people. At no stage have I stated that I am above reproach - merely asking the question of respect.
And Kattyman, I have not said I am holier than thou nor is this a proof reading or grammatical discussion. I refer you to the first line of my response...

[gijoe1313]

'tis funny how my students always start the year with foul mouths, as time goes on, I use the broken record technique "watch your language please" to every profane outburst. Eventually their usage of it (around me) reduces until they rarely swear (around me).

I always compliment them on the days when they do not swear or cuss around me.

Once in every while, I let burst a torrent of filthy words that would make a sailor blush. The looks on the student's faces when they hear it ... :rofl: Then, I say "well now you know how I and most people feel whenever you swear or cuss".

Works well for me!

I know a Doctor of Philosophy who is the most intelligent person I know. Like huge pointy head to contain a massive brain, and I've tried to read some of his technical writing and i just can't. He swears like a trooper because its one way of making sure his meaning is understood. Plus the pithy Anglo Saxon phrases have a certain ring to them.

So I follow his lead. Time and place though, eh? I mean you dont talk to your Grandma the way you talk to your mates, you dont talk to your mates like you talk to your girlfriend, you dont talk to your girlfriend the way you talk to her girlfriends ("Hey baby, how bout that threesome?")..... know what I'm saying??

We could start a challenge to see if everyone can communicate without using expletives. How many could post using English words and grammar that can convey their message clearly without resorting to foul language?

The trouble these days is that so many have little understanding or knowledge of English at all and don't even know basic words and their meanings. These are grown ups in their late teens and twenties.

Why not make a point of looking up words and their meanings and post using your new-found knowledge? It is hard to engender respect with written and verbal language that betrays ignorance of basic grammar. People won't take you seriously or want to employ you.

If you think about it, respect is earned and everyone has similar standards for granting others respect, from the bank manager to the homeless street person. When you're in the pub, or at a party, drinking, swearing, and being lewd, you're neither earning respect nor granting it. It is merely a showy bravado and facade while you convince yourself you're having the time of your life.

Think about who you really respect and why. I doubt it is anything to do with language, but rather on you knowing the person personally. I tend to ignore the bad language on here and put people in boxes depending on how they come across with their attitude. One thing that comes across clearly, not only on KB but in life, is that people tend to jump to the wrong conclusions too easily and are generally defensive, feeling they are being attacked personally when such is not the case.

Humour can alleviate a lot of angst. People need to laugh more, genuine laughter.

Docking.

The delicious act of two men rubbing the heads of their dicks together, with one of the men's foreskin being stretched over the head of his partner's dick. Add a little leakage (precum) from one (or both of their dicks), mutual excitement, rubbing, grinding, heavy breathing and the result is a mind-blowing orgasm for both men.


Alone in their personal sauna at home, Josh and Wayne glued their dicks together with a little skin and spooge and made love to each other's cock all night long...ahhh the joys of docking.

Yep. Horses for courses. Most of us adapt our language and behaviour to the situation.

Personally I don't swear on the net or abuse people, but that's just me. Don't mind if others use expletives and scatological language, in fact it can be quite funny.

My pet hate is nasty abuse of others.

I would assert that the interweeb has more than a passing influence on the real world and that which passes for acceptable communication online translates into a manner by which people relate to one another offline. The decline in societal standards cannot be based solely on the internet. The language that people use to communicate is not really even the issue I don't think. It is the lack of respect for other's views. I taught my kids not to swear growing up but they still do - they don't use the same prescribed words but the intent is the same. My contention is the expression of disagreement and the apparent lack of ability that people have become used to being allowed to use. Any monkey can fling their poo at someone - it takes intelligence to refute an assertion.

[007XX]

Words fascinate me... I like how they taste when I roll them off my tongue.

But I, much like Master Gijoe, do not generally swear at people. However, if I do, I'd advise taking any sharp objects away from me. And I never say the "C" word... I'm old fashioned, I think a woman should never say words like that. It's bad enough when you boys throw it around like chocolate sprinkles on a cupcake :facepalm:

Placating someone with true sarcasm is a lot more appealing, however, doing it with a simpleton just bores me senseless...So then, I *might* use the odd swear word: got to speak a language the lower specie understands.

Therein lies the rub. Most lower specie(sic) language comes from the rank & file, those who built empires from the bottom up. Saxon workers not lords, low Dutch sailors who slaved on trading ship decks, Roman cloth & tool makers etc. So yeah, you have a point and even now, how we use language is an indication of education, or lack. The workers at the coal face have always sworn but are only judged by those who are forbidden too by religion or privilege. Or their mothers.

Fascinating thing language, it's history & foibles.:yes:

Its not that bad...
The "mikeygate" thread (the guy with home made plates) was an example, it started with public opinion and his affect on it then flowed on to right and wrong, visited being staunch and standing up for something, then his friends defended him, a race was challenged, alliances were made then the joking around returned ( it never really left) then the tread petered out.
In that instance I was given helpful advice from Banditbandit not to muck around with the spelling of profanity and by doing so I had unwittingly suggested I had an anatomical abnormality.

My contention is the expression of disagreement and the apparent lack of ability that people have become used to being allowed to use. Any monkey can fling their poo at someone - it takes intelligence to refute an assertion.

I think it is the other way around - people use profanity routinely in conversation. However the unspoken rule of courtesy was that you didn't write it. That has changed. The internet is anonymous so keyboard warriors abound.

The problem with profanity is it conveys strength of feeling, not information. Unfortunately some people's vocabularly is so limited they really do not have the words to explain what they think. Cuss words become the default.

There are :yes: Not, there is.
Do I get a cup cake for my greatness?
Unfortunately not. It is cupcake. Or, out of respect for the intent of the original post, a fucking cupcake. With fucking sprinkles.

[Winston001]

Ah fuck it you losers. Why do we bother! There are over 250,000 words in the English language, the richest most descriptive language ever evolved by human beings. And the average person uses.....15,000. At best.

I see. Well, of course, this is just the sort of blinkered philistine ignorance I've come to expect from you non-creative garbage. You sit there on your loathsome spotty behinds squeezing blackheads, not caring a tinker's cuss for the struggling artist. You excrement! You whining hypocritical toadies with your plasma TV sets and your Bob Charles golf clubs and your bleeding BRONZ secret handshakes. (screams) You wouldn't let me join, would you, you blackballing bastards! Well I wouldn't become a biker if you went down on your lousy stinking purulent knees and begged me.

Hmmm...As the daughter of a working class, 5" nothing redhead with a worst temper on her than that of a rabid jackal female on heat, I can assure you that my education in swearing has been somewhat colourful :gob:

So yes, I can swear... But I make the choice not to, maybe motivated by a subconscious wish to "fit into" a station above my own.

But eh, what can I say? Apparently, the first of our ancestor to leave France did so with shackles on both ankles and wrists as a deported bad arse for stealing an apple :bye:
Hmmm. 5ft redhead, rabid, jackal....sounds like my daughter. But shes still in her Teens...scary.,

You cant fit in a station? Fuck me. Jenny Craig time love, and you need to update that avatar.

But relatives in shackles - you cant be all bad after all :)

[Hitcher]

I don't mind the use of expletives. They are words, just like any other words and can provide colour, impact and emotion to language, whether spoken or written.

What really fucks me off, are people who censor their expletive usage, in case they offend somebody. F*cken c*nts. Anybody with half a brain, including the people who use such techniques, knows what the words are and what is meant by their usage. So why not spell them out in full? Gender-neutral soft cock morons will be the death of me. I really fucking believe that.

Well I think this is fucking with cake ...... but then others may see it as cake fucking :mellow:

That's just it isn't it? It's part of everyday language and accepted.
You see two guys cursing at each other in the street and before too long there's a punch thrown. Is it the anonymity of your keyboards that make it easier to posture without the need formulate anything intelligent?

In a word YES!

At times this place can be just like a public bar of old and the very day its more like the Wiggels dressing room.

Good luck with the offspring, wouldn't want to be you.

No thanks... And you can kiss my avatar :bleh:

And you're right, i'm not all bad, I'm pretty fucking good!

Fair enough, so from now on its either spelt out or not used but don't play hangman with it.
