we're fucking americans, this is our fucking life. Actually it took me quite a while to stop saying fuck in front of the kids once they got older, it still slips out once in a while

I just don’t care to be quite honest. To me, people are too uptight about language, but I honestly try to refrain from using it on the forum. It slips out when I get argumentative around here. The user above is just a piece of work that gets on nerves though.

@intoronto point was fair, and so I listened.
 

I think the fact you think this forum is left-leaning is quite hilarious. I’m pretty sure it’s quite the opposite.

 

 

I think most people are not extremely to the left as you. Anything that goes against you seems to be automatically considered as "right". It isn't

I actually hear that a lot, progressives consider moderates as right wing and conservatives as far right

I don't mind it at all. I use it here, among friends too, a lot. But not around kids

Yeah, I need to tone down my bias. It’s a consequence of staying online too long. I really do need to work on it.

Yes, this is generally true from what I’ve seen/heard as well.

Yeah, I try not to use it around kids under 12. They’ve already heard it, and probably use it by then anyways.

Could be worse. My mom got a phone call because a started a club in the cubbies in 6th grade where we’d drop heavy ass textbooks on each other for “fun”. I miss my cubby cult 

 

I think my defining moments in school discipline were that, paper football in 1st grade, and smashing Cheese-It’s into the carpet in third grade. I guess you could me getting stabbed with a pencil, and then told I deserved it too the list as well.

 

I was a bad kid, but a great student. That’s probably the only reason I made it though K-8. I had something like 15 detentions, and 3 suspensions. I only had one disciplinary action against me in high school, and it was for shoving tinfoil in a kids face after he throw it at me.

@KingOfTheRhinos Have you heard of this channel? I can’t stop watching their videos. Satire to perfection.
