I get the feeling your adherence to social norms goes much further than simply work.

Tell me, do you pick your nose in public? Or do you refrain from that? How do you dress?

You adhere to social norms more than you think. You'd like to think of yourself as some kind of free-thinking rebel, but you're not. Get over it.


Perhaps if you actually read what ive been saying, instead of blindly following your own convictions, you wouldnt have missed this:

Originally posted by: PaperclipGodI accept social norms when theyre absolutely necessary for me to have a successful life. Thats not to say i'm some grand advocate of the non-conformist (which in itself is bizarre, but i digress) - there are many "norms" that ive simply come to accept and not think twice about. Yet there are some, such as this profanity taboo, that just make too little sense to apathetically accept.

Ironically, you even responded to that very post.

I've BEEN reading what you've been saying... And all I see is a whole lot of backpeddling. You claim social norms are pointless, yet you follow them more than you'd like to admit. You're a wannabe rebel.

You've refuted noone here so don't get the big head just yet.


rofl

Gonna call me a fvcker next?

Please, keep going. It's good to have someone here to help prove my point.

Alright, third time im going to say this:

YES, I DO FOLLOW SOME OF SOCIETIES ACCEPTED FORMS OF BEHAVIOR. Do the capitals and shortened sentence structure get through to you a bit easier?

Trying to discredit what i say by throwing out random insults like "wannabe rebel" and "backpeddler" arent helping your case. I've told you why, and still, all i get in return are more insults. The more riled you get, the more you turn into that "foul mouthed punk" youre so derisive of.

My entire point in this thread has been to showcase how absurd it is to make a select few words less worthy of conversation than others. Yet after all that, what does it come down to? The defenders of those taboo's doing nothing but slinging personal insults. Really, i guess that speaks volumes, doesnt it?

It's just a WORD you simple-minded 'tards. The only reason you dont like it is because you were brought up being told "fvck is bad." "Why?" "Because!"

Idiots.

Yes, but using foul language makes you look like a primitive fool. Despite popular belief among youth today, cursing doesn't make you look cool or intelligent, it makes you look like a retard that doesn't have any grasp of standard graces or a brain.

You're a kid and a moron Paperboy. Realize, in the real world, business and personal contacts are made everyday in subtle unseen ways. In smaller towns or the business community in any town (which is very small in the first place) one bad comment or move showing how obnoxious you are can ruin you, for life. People don't forget... and trust is #1 when dealing with money and other peoples money and thier time.

back on topic,

I think profanity is a great method of verbal expression. The problem is that overusage makes words like "fvck" superfluous. Fvckn' this and fvcking that. It's just a way to fill the sentence up and make sure the listener knows you're still talking.

How bout, you don't curse obnoxiously in public? Seriously, don't make the excuse of "women can't handle it" or something, heck, a number of women curse like sailors, too. It's just rude to do in public.

My attitude has served me well. People who know me understand that i dont mince words, and what needs to be said is said without pandering to your emotional well being. You dont perform, you dont give me what i expect, you'll know it. Whether that attitude impresses upon people respect, fear, or disgust - i couldn't care less. It has, however, made me atypically successful for my age.

Yes, there are times when that kind of attitude isnt the best to parlay with - and i adapt. However, i refuse to use such a false and absurd exterior on my own ground.

While your ability to call me a moron and in the same breath deride me for calling other people morons is great for comic relief, your logic is severely flawed. There is a difference between being arrogant or obnoxious and swearing. An arrogant person makes enemies because of his entire attitude towards others. He doesnt have to swear to make people dislike him. A person who swears makes enemies because others immediately judge him based on their preconceptions. In most cases, thats the kind of close-minded person who isnt worth my time anyway.

I'll tell it like it is. You would NOT want anybody using langauge like that in front of your mom, wife or kid... period. Admit it, or shut up.

People go to Dennys between 7AM and 2AM? I thought it was empty until after the bars start closing.

BTW, I don't know where you get this idea about not cursing in front of women. The average conversation with my mom I'm pretty sure involves a lot more swearing than you heard at Denny's. It's not like your kids don't already know that stuff.

Right... so now youre to the point of bragging about what an internet badass you are, typing swears where any number of kids can view them - yet then you complain about kids swearing.

Is this sinking in yet?

As has already been pointed out, and as I suspected, you'd be just as disgusted as I was in that situation. Knowing that, (since you won't deny it) makes ALL your blathering ring hollow. Keep up the good work!

I think it's, "Vulgarity is the crutch of the inarticulate motherfvcker", but your's is good too :p

Edit - I think it's "Profanity is the crutch.."

- M4H

The correct quote is, "Profanity is the linguistic crutch of the inarticulate motherfvcker."

Wow. Really, wow.

After 2 pages of this, youve actually managed to interpret what ive said as "id be disgusted if someone said fvck in front of me"?

Words truly cannot describe the utter stupidity that drips from your posts.

Anyway, im not sure what society you belong to, but mine does not judge me by the medium in which i transport my thoughts - only for the thoughts themselves. If i happen to use a few words in a conversation that someone else might not use, the people i surround myself would not think any less of me for it. Unfortunately, it sounds as though you are not lucky enough to have such friends. If you are truly judged based on the structure of your speech and not the content, i pity you.
Please forgive me for the crude analogy, but in effect you are saying that if I were to paint a masterpiece of a picture with a pile of steaming dog-poop, people should look beyond my tools of delivery and see my work for what it truly is. That is just naive. The message is important, but noone will listen to you if the delivery is sub-par. Your friends may be forgiving, but the rest of the world is not. Better accept it now. That is what all the others have been trying to say. We all have dreamy ideals of what the world should be like, but there are another 6 billion people out there with THEIR own ideals, and chance are they are different from yours.

And you really should stop comparing ATOT to a family restaurant. Apples and oranges, man. Actually, more like, apples and freaky looking gelatinous three-eyed aliens from outer space. Do you really need to be told why?
