XXX Rootbeer Meet February 23

I don't know where you got the freedom of speech thing from when the last thing in my post was "up to you how you'd like to communicate", but since we're on the subject, I'll whatever post whatever I want in whichever threads I want to. The only point of what I said is that there's a better way to say what you said, take it or leave it. At the end of the day, no one is going to stop anyone from using gay in a derogatory manner, but that doesn't make defending that use of the word any less foolish.
I'm not an English major either, but do y'all understand that when you misuse a word, it redefines the word with an inferred meaning? For example, if youtube was broken or not working properly, and I said, "YouTube is acting like a white person," I infer that white people are broken or don't work properly. Conversely, if you had used gay correctly in the first place, it would've meant that youtube was being, per Jetfire's provided and correct definitions, happily excited, spirited, or any other number of synonyms. You understand the difference?
And the Manwich thing...did you miss the that I responded with? I've yet to come across anyone that's seriously offended by Manwich, other than maybe the taste And even if someone was seriously offended, someone being upset about sammich meat and someone being shamed about who they are don't register on the same scale.
