What a fantastic thread - thanks for linking. Spent most of my morning reading this and lol’ing at my desk. Even got caught out laughing on a client call after forgetting to mute.

Can anyone confirm if the toon ‘Legday’ still exists??
Man after reading that I lost a ton of respect for Baler. Reporting someone for having the name Marshmellow? Whispershadow?Idol? Wtf why do those matter lol

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.
