Wow.

I know this is just for that university, though languages changes, and having words change value or meaning is part of the process. Obviously people who just hate these terms all hate change. How does calling something epic for example, hurt our culture? Really. If you prefer the old days when g*y meant happy, then sorry, but you have to drop some things, and let it go.

Well, I need to Google more of the back story. Maybe then I can find more epic fail censorship thingies. I'm just sayin'...

Well, it's their choice. But banning epic? FAIL.

But seriously, you can't trust anything Fox News says.

But I don't care what anyone says; I will continue to say words that aren't even remotely bad. I don't care if I'm banned, I can make a new account. If my IP gets banned, I'll come back with a masked IP and develop proxies. You can't keep someone off the net forever unless you kill them.

Uhh...I was saying that it was false...1. because it's just 1 university, and 2. Fox keeps on getting it wrong...

I think the stupidest on that website is man-up.

How is that sexist?

Edit: We should all start using these words in context.

"It's an absurdity followed by a redundancy. First, things are full or they're not; there is no fullest. Second, 'live life' is redundant. Finally, the expression is nauseatingly overused. What's wrong with enjoying life fully or completely? The phrase makes me gag. I'm surprised it hasn't appeared on the list before." Sylvia Hall, Williamsport, Penn.

Wow, he's talking like it's offending.


And why are they banning words because they're overused?

Are they going to ban the phrase "unnecessary censorship" next? Because I imagine they'll be hearing it a lot.

Maybe because of the word "man" in it.

Wooooooooow. That's probably right.

It is sexist. But I am to astounded to explain.

Phail

heheh :3

They should just ban all computers. Then no one could abuse them.

Probably not the best idea in terms of enrollment though.
