the second something becomes a BIT controversial, it gets all banned..........Originally posted by: Stratum9
So what's the big deal about the stabbing quips on these forums? Seems as harmless as the "in Russia" thing or the "killing kittens" jokes.

If saying "st@b" can get you banned, can we please make that "In Russia" garbage a bannable offense too? At least st@bbing was somewhat funny (although people took it too seriously), but "In Russia" is just lame and irritating.
No st@bbing isn't even remotely humorous. At best it's moronic and those who would take the time to post that crap usually are the same idiots that post other nonsense that has nothing to do with the topic of the thread. Same with that "Russia" BS. It might have been slightly humorous at first and kudos to the first individual that said it, but those who have started to use it themselves are nothing more than unimaginative buffoons who couldn't come up with a post that's halfway original themselves so they imitate others like new born primates .Originally posted by: maladroit

I find it and the "do her in the butt" comment massively offensive. There's nothing "humorous" in the least about jokes that involve violence towards women.
I'd bet a $100 that if ladies started suggesting that problematic husbands and boyfriends be bobbetized,the hue and cry around here would be deafening.
I've seen threads where people will talk about girl problems. You guessed it, people suggested that the person "st@b" them. Not funny imo.I agree with the butt reference, but how you are twisting "stabbing" to be a term in any way associated with violence towards women? "Stabbibg" as in intercourse? If that is your reasoning, you are reading far too much into it, I have never seen it used in that fashion.

I never said it was. In fact, I didn't find it funny then either. I know it was a joke, but I found its usage mildly disturbing. That's it. No more, no less. Agree or disagree.But it's funny if they use it towards a man?

I'll take that bet, as we would shrug it off for what it is. Humor, whether it agrees with your tastes or not.
