I think you should find out the address of these people, go to it, and give them a severe rebuking.
In a totally unrelated pissed off moment, I noted on the BBC's very own website the other day the use of 'theres' instead of 'theirs'. And it wasn't a quote. I don't know why it irks me so, but...

Fair enough.Bijou Bob wrote:I concur Worthy, I'm not trying to "Burn the heretic", just picking up the use of the word "Bird" which I find offensive and which I'm not sure you can use without it being pejorative in that context. I'd do the same with the other words I mentioned, I happen to think it's important that we do. There's no change without challenge.

Advice please: How should I describe that Spooky Waterfall, that one of our royals is currenly sharing Champagne and caviar with, and all her oxygen-wasting friends...Ooeerrr, what have I just done..Worthy4England wrote:Fair enough.Bijou Bob wrote:I concur Worthy, I'm not trying to "Burn the heretic", just picking up the use of the word "Bird" which I find offensive and which I'm not sure you can use without it being pejorative in that context.

There's no change without challenge.I think you've been conditioned to assume use of the word "bird" as being pejorative. When I were a lad, it was used interchangeably with girlfriend and by both men and women. I've also heard plenty of conversations from women over the years where they clearly weren't discussing a bloke's mental capacity. Apparently that should make us feel really cheap.

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
I'm staying out of the argument since to me 'bird' and 'tart' had entirely different meanings and only the latter was pejorative. However, I believe 'girl' originally meant a child of either sex. I discovered this 40 years ago when reading Afferbeck Lauder's book Fraffly well spoken.Lost Leopard Spot wrote:Blokes are the new Guys.Enoch wrote:Is it still ok to call a bloke, a bloke, or is that passe too?Worthy4England wrote:Yes, it is possible. Like it's possible I build moon rockets. Not true, but possible.
That really does annoy me, "hey guys" says one woman to a 'bunch' of others in a film. Nooooooo.
[ then again 'girl' originally meant a young boy, bet you didn't know that].

Bloke rents out flat on Airbnb and finds on his return that a Banksy worth £10,000 has been nicked.
Sorry, should have been on the happy thread. There's some wazzocks out there.

Just heard a song, one that I've heard many many times... Best to last by Vanessa Williams. It's shit. But I've never knowingly actually listened to it. Just made the mistake of doing that... "Sometimes the sun goes 'raund the moon".

It doesn't in an orbital sense but it goes behind the moon when we get a solar eclipse. Does that count?Lost Leopard Spot wrote:Just heard a song, one that I've heard many many times...

The UN can get fxcked: Assange is a fugitive not a victim.
The NI attorney general needs promoting: Equal rights laws are beyond incoherent, they actually discriminate in favour of oppressors. Stop the virtue signalling masses right now.
The LSE: They, and all the students who ride in her, can just get to 4ck, full stop.
The Saudi's can get to 4ck too: it's no good having pretend suffrage, you cxnts!

That does look incredibly badly photoshopped, but if true, chef is a dick. The Americans who "hunt" lions are bad, but Christ. What's he shot it with? Looks like Sunday's doner kebab.
