The news about you were in a guild called holocaust makes it very cringy with your recent role playing guild named Dark Men of Odus.

Imagine something horrible happened, and a word with multiple definitions was used to name the event, and then people thought you could never use that word again without referencing the horrible event.

Without context people make assumptions you're using a word in the way it is most commonly *used*.

This is why I could say "the flowers were very colorful and gay" and people might understand I'm not using it to refer to homosexual flowers. On the flip side, most husbands do say they are gay on their wedding day, because despite being used properly the word would be misinterpreted by most.

I'm sorry... I thought you were uninformed and looking for an honest discussion, so let me stop there. Let me congratulate you once again on your "Egyptians culturally appropriating Eurasian names" themed guild. Wait.. I mean Erudites culturally appropriating Antonican names.

No, no they don't.

Though perhaps if they are marrying another man.

Ya the 100s of people who came through that guild are all genocidal maniacs.

You've got brain worms.
