Hope you know that Scott Thompson in Kids in the Hall is gay, and he jokes about it all the time. Especially right in that Running Faggot skit.
It's a poorly chosen word, but dude. We are dudes. We know how to take it and dish it out! We thrive on beating the crap out of each other, insulting each other, getting other people in trouble instead of us. Heck, I just want all of us young men to gather around. eat a steak, go out whooping at girls that are better looking than others. Change a tire, then go out riding with loud Cock Rock playing destroying our ear drums, because we got alot of energy and we just need to get it out. And then we start laughing with our tongues hanging out, and eventually throwing up because of the food we ate beforehand. And then we start inventing skateboard tricks, because we want to. We find an old raggity boxing glove pair and we decide to fill it with spiders before the fight and then get ol' Trevor to put em on. haha, we laughed when he started to tighten the strings. And after it all ends, we just pick it up right where we left off. The word fag? Pfh, when we finish our job, that little word means nothing compared to the end result.

Even though you may not mean it that it's used in this case is due to the word faggot being connected to gay people. You can not tell me that people use the word fag to describe a wimp or loser is because they are like "lawl bundle of wood that person is such a loser he's definately resembling a bundle of wood" NO.
But I'm done attempting to defend homosexuality because it's quite evident that you have no intentions of being mature and admitting that the word is in no way acceptable.

Have you ever seen someone smoking a cigarette? There's no manly way to do it. It always looks effeminate. But I won't argue that's what people are particularly thinking of when they use the word fag.
The words "wimpy," and "loser," are yours, not mine. There's nothing wrong with having an effeminate and eccentric personality.

Ok here's my last comment in this thread.
The term simply has not evolved past that you will still see people refering to homosexual people as fags or faggots. Despite whether or not you yourself think of it that way the reason you use the word fag is because it became "popular" while attached to homosexuality.
A random word that you look up in the dictionary will not become as widespread as fag has because there is simply no reason to; are you really going to tell me that somebody would use the word "nugget" to insult somebody? No because it isn't already drilled into vocabulary and it never really was.
I honestly don't care if you say that it has evolved past that because the word "nigger" is still associated with black people whether or not you think of it that way.

how bout you bitch at the maker of the thread and NOT the guy who disagreed with it
As for Chill's argument, it really doesn't matter what you attach it to. I could attach the word nigger spic to a teddy bear and it wouldn't mean it was ok

I was not intending for the word to be used there that's just the first place I saw it. If you read my posts they had nothing to do with this poster

They are just words. It's their intent. He obviously isn't using it to slander his friend. One of my best friends is gay and i routinely call him princess or tell him "your so fierce". I greet my black friends with "hey nigs" all my cousins are lebanese and look like they are getting ready to fly a few planes into buildings. They tell me i was adopted. Just relax and live a little.

Who are you to criticize other people for using the vocabulary that they learned naturally growing up, especially when the connotation they learned isn't the same as the one you assumed?
Informing others is fine but fighting for your position is making you look bad. Plus, placing so much emphasis on such a trivial matter is ridiculous. The only reason why you find the word so offensive is because YOU, NOT we, continue to associate "fag/faggot" and "homosexual".

Badass picture 
And my best friend is gay, and I mean maybe family is different, but my friends don't want me to avoid using words to consider their feelings. It sucks that some people get extra hardship because of their sexual orientation, or race or whatever, but you should treat your friends/family equally. If you joke around with one, you shouldn't avoid joking around with another guy to spare his feelings. It just feels weird for everyone.

Some form of political correctness is okay with me. While I like to use the term "gay" ironically, i.e. the way frat boys do, but with the idea in mind of how stupid they sound--I am fully okay with not doing this ever again if it is going to make actual gay people feel uncomfortable or worse. They don't deserve that, just for a few laughs, or for easier vocab. Find another way to insult people or be funny. You wouldn't be okay with hurting some people's feelings "accidentally" or "incidentally", so why gays? Because you are slightly okay with slightly almost nearly minorly bashing them maybe? But if the gays are like "it's coo", then I'm like, "okay this was gay then." Yes/no?
