conuly

Here I am, innocently scrolling my friends list, when I see an lj-cut with a warning: "No offense to any lesbians". So I click it, thinking that this ought to be good - and it's not like I don't still have completely random bad-mood and anger to burn off anyway, right?

Dear stupid dykes that came into my work,
What the fucking hell were your problems? It was nearing the end of my shift, I was tired as all hell, I was one of two baggers at durring the busiest time on a Sunday. I'm sorry I was bagging a big order than yours. I'm only one person, I can't be in two places at once. I'm sorry but you two were the snootiest, bitchiest, cuntiest lesbians I've ever met. You'd think for being somewhat of an outcast to society, you wouldn't be so fucking stuck up.

Here's what I don't get. If not a word of that little rant has to do with the fact that these people are OMG! GAY! GAY! GAY!, why did she include it?

Well, I was bored, so I just changed every incident of "dyke" and "lesbian" to nigger. I mean, I didn't, but I said I did.

Apparently, I should "lighten up".

...

I don't think so. Why? Because this form of insult is uncreative and, frankly, boring, not to mention, as I said, completely gratuitous. (This is why I like William deWorde, by the way. How often I feel like smacking somebody who'd rather apologise for offending somebody than avoid offending people in the first place! Sometimes it's unavoidable, but you can't say that applies here. That pisses me off more than seeing random character attacks at people.)

I generally like that community, but sometimes the people in there really piss me off. I'd complain, but it seems a bit wrong to submit an angry letter about
