Foul language?

[jmurray01]

"Dick" can also refer to a mean or stupid person....on the site I originally posted about as removing my term "horse squeeze", if somebody attacks me there, I simply reply to them:

"Hey Dick, about your response...." I always wonder if the insult registers or not....:laughing:

So does this mean I can get away with calling you Dick from now on ?

Show some respect for your elders and use Richard instead.

the paper probably didn't like the response, not the language. But in general the use of foul language has increased with the decline in civility and respect for others.

God is good.

I was thinking the same thing, and the removal is also an indication of decline in respect for others who have differing views.

In one site I infest they won't even allow "Dick" as short for Richard. Guess it scans for the word, not the meaning.

Same thing happened to me. I was trying to tell someone something about a fuel shutoff (commonly known as a "petcock").

You should've seen what the auto-censor turned THAT into!!! :laughing:

I find it stupid and hypocritical that on THIS site you can include ANY word as long as you replace one letter with an asterisk--that makes it OK?? None of these words bother me, by the way..... Regards, Mike
