Re: To Newb

I never said it's a bad thing.
Just that if one is not maturity prepared beforehand for it, then it is a bad thing.
EDIT:
lol I know this thread is now going off-topic with this post of mine and the one I've responded to.

Re: To Newb

"Fighting for peace is like [freakin] for virginity" is an old quote attributed to George Carlin.

newb has misquoted it in a way that makes absolutely no sense :S

Re: To Newb

To me it should be this:

Fighting for peace is like giving food to the starving while starving.

Some things are worth doing regardless.

Everything bad in the economy is now Obama's fault. Every job lost, all the debt, all the lost retirement funds. All Obama. Are you happy now? We all get to blame Obama!

Re: To Newb

Yell

I could understand editing a post that contained gratuitous swearing, but the whole point of that was-  its a quote that is completely relevant to the thread.

Editing that is just silly.

...that reminds me of a couple humourous situations (not humourous at all back then):

When I was in public elementary school (our school was the toughest academically in our school division, which was one of the toughest divisions in our province) our teachers had a rule that they enforced. 
That rule was "No going to the washroom during class time".
There were NO exceptions.
Their reason was that we had plenty of opportunities during recesses and lunch hour.
I didn't realize at the time but they were correct.
But I used to think this way "only go when your body feels like it needs to go" and it ALMOST never felt like going during our break times, so I understandably disagreed with the rule.
Anyway,
when I was in grade 4, from my seat during class I begged the teacher to let me go to the washroom.  She refused.  I begged further.  She kept refusing.  So I ended up pissing in my pants and sat in a pile of excrement liquid...ewww!  Of course the others laughed at me.  I would have done the same if it had happened to someone else.  And of course I was humiliated to the point of never forgetting that incident.
Come grade 5, I thought I'd learned my lesson from the grade 4 incident.  So this time when I had to go out of my rearend instead, I privately went up to my teacher (different one) and asked "May I go to the washroom to take a shit?"  She replied "What!?".  I repeated my question.  She repeated her shocked questioning answer.  Then I realized that she thought I was swearing, so I rephrased my question (I was not being sarcastic...I was completely serious and innocent) to "May I go to the washroom to take a manure?"  She was even further shocked.  She didn't reply for a few seconds.  Then she said "Trevor, just go already!!!".  Of course I hurried down to the washroom and almost shat in my pants...heh.

Anyway, just thought I'd humour you all with this true hilarious personal previously embarrassing situation! wink

EDIT:
Yell, you might want to tell your mom about this incident of mine.  lol

Re: To Newb

Look, I too think that most of the words we edit out here aren't that vulgar and editing them out is silly. But the rules are set and we have to respect them (there are people who do think those words are not appropriate). It's easy to get around them by using allowed synonimes. To conclude, there's no point in whining about an edit. You know the rules and give us the permission to do what we want with your posts if you don't respect them tongue
