On Tue, 05 Dec 2006 17:34:19 -0500 ET got an infinite number of monkeys to type out:
> you can not spell,,, > > is that pejorative enough? 1. You're misquoting, that was Grumpy, not me. 2. It *is* spelled correctly. "The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48" used as compar. of malus evil.] Implying or imputing evil; depreciatory; disparaging; unfavorable. [1913 Webster] I love my dict plugin ;-) 3. Can we please *drop this*. As I believe Julie pointed out, this silly specious argument about 'political correctness'; it's old, it's tired, and to anyone joining the list, we look like a bunch of damn tools. The rules of etiquette are very clear: the list is not to be a forum for *anything* that could even be *perceived* as an ethnic/racial/whatever slur. It's as simple as that. The subject simply should never, ever, come up. Do whatever you want, but know that with every snipe like this you are degrading the community as a whole. I hope you enjoy being so self-righteous about your 'right' to off-colour humour when there's no one left on the list but y'all. ...and, yes, Grumpy, if someone cannot understand that ethnic stereotyping, for the purposes of one's own fun, is *out of place in a public forum like this*, then they are, by definition, a moron (ie. immature, ignorant, cannot process simple logic, etc.). My last word on the subject. G'night. -- JoeHill / RLU #282046 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Zapp: She's built like a steak house but she handles like a bistro. ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
