This (Destiny)

I am aware of the difference between disparaging a minority and calling someone a dick. It's why they're in two separate sentences with one beginning with "that said,"

I didn't want to get into why that is insulting, and still don't. I understand your point about using words that are inclusive, but the fact is, if the anagram were "a known dick" it would still be funny. It wouldn't be AS funny because of the extra play you can get out of homo. If it worked out to be anus, I think we could still get by with just as funny as homo.

But, I now understand you were not asking the question you apparently asked.

What you were really saying is "this isn't funny."

You're right, but I did want people to name their reasoning. Once that is on the table, we can at least discuss it in context without hyperbole, etc. However I'm pretty sure you understood what I was doing in your first response, so I'm not the only one being coy. :-)

I like you Funk and I know that message boards tend to shoe us into adversarial modes of communication so this probably comes off as me being overly sensitive or something.
Look, I don't want to see this place turn into a PC hellhole where no one can communicate. However, I do think we can be thoughtful with our language and that is a bit different.
