We need better insults
People around this hick-infested town in central Illinois which I'm (not) a proud member of always seem to use the most idiotic insults, i.e. retard and f*****t. Why do they use those? Retards are usually the nicest people you could meet, but because of a mental illness they ARE BORN WITH, they are persecuted and teased at every turn. This pisses me off so much! (If I wasn't in the Air Force and get kicked out for doing so, I would kick the a** of anyone I see making fun of a mentally retarded kid, and I'm not blowing hot air, I really would!)
The other poorly used insult is calling someone a f*****t (or just gay). Last I checked, most gay guys are pretty damn happy with their lives (no pun intended), and in all honesty, I don't see this as a true insult. And to top it off, gay guys are EVERYWHERE on TV, hosting shows, redecorating shows, and, of course, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. So what if they like other dudes, that's their choice. So unless you basically want to call someone happy and successful, don't say 'f*****t' unless you're talking about a bundle of sticks, m'kay?
What would make me happy is if people make new, well thought-out insults. I can't think of any off-hand, but I'm sure you could think of a brand-new insult or put-down, P.M. or comment on me and I'll tell you what I think. mrgreen

I love you! You totally rock! You make absolute sense and are awesome! (I don't actually love you, but I do get what you're saying!)
