LyKe OmG yOuRe SoOoO gAy!
Lately I've been more aware about the way people speak, which does little more than irritate me. I've gotten to a point where I usually just bite my tongue, arguments are tiresome and only leave one or both parties hurt and offended. I'm just getting really frustrated with it, though. Why is it less offensive to call someone gay or retarded than it is to call them a dumbass? Better yet, why have those words become our main insults? Can we really not be any more creative than insulting large groups of people in place of the word stupid? It kind of disgusts me at the type of people who say these words...people who "stand up for Jesus!" and even those I attend church with. If your beliefs are so strong wouldn't you think about the way you speak and act before you do so? Beliefs are hollow without a conscious way of life.

I personally don't like mass criticism of any kind.
ReplyDeleteAnd what you are calling for here is called "walking the walk not just talking the talk."
Very important concept put into very simple words - - - and not a "lyke" in there.
Yeah, it seems as though many people have become very relaxed in their speaking & have no idea what they're saying. We're a generation of talkers, not walkers. I don't expect everyone to be obnoxiously politically correct - just more aware. If only I could influence the minds of millions :) hahah
