I disagree. Not everyone has to be like you and people don't necessarily have to put up with harassment just because you would be ok with it yourself. I was also a fat kid and was made fun of. Do you think this would give me a free pass to publicly mock fat people, targeted or not? Also why would I be motivated to do so knowing it could possibly hurt someone?
I wasn't harassing anyone. I called the fucking meme retarded. If your offended by the word, use a word blocker. I'm not censoring myself because you want to be offended. I am offended that people take offence to words. Your offense is what gives the word power. Humbug used to be a slur, guess what it isn't anymore because ITS A FUCKING WORD.
And I disagree with you. You think Internet peeps are going to change my speech? I don't make fun of people because I know how it feels. I was making fun of a meme for being wholly incorrect. The only person who should take offence to my comment is the dummy who made the meme
And now you're pointing out that me letting someone know their work is incorrect as harassment? Seriously?
Seems like everyone in this thread is making a mountain out of a damn mole hill
