Oh gawd that movie scarred me when I was a kid. I have the kind of parents who don't know what is and isn't appropriate to show a kid. I think they though, "Well, there's animation, so it can't be that bad." Errrggghhhh.

UO: Teenagers > kids.

Well I think it probably was inappropriate . But at the time I thought it was really cool. I still remember the seeing the song "The Wall" in the movie and it seemed to open up a world of questioning authority and free thinking in my five year old mind. I think it influenced me a lot.

I really dislike Doctor Who.

Same here. & BBT.

 

[Envy]

Now, I just think that's BS. I've never been fond of the whole "-fag" suffix crap. It's not "different" and is developed from hatred, regardless of the supposed context.

Semantic changes.

Semantic changes.

But in this case, it really hasn't. Basically just a bunch of ignorance wrapped up in the "but it's 2013, words have chaaaanged" crap. That's one of the few internet trends that I absolutely cannot tolerate.

Another is white people using the n-word constantly as slang and not seeing anything wrong with it. This happens a LOT on Tumblr as well.

i wish that nobody would use the n word at all. I wish people would just forget it existed, personally. I feel that way about all slurs though.

Conor Maynard is cute.

Conor Maynard is cute.

Just looked him up. Why do people think this guy's ugly? That's in the suggested searches.

 

[hungryraccoon]

No idea. He is in no way ugly! Also when I said cute I actually meant quite hot... Plus I like his voice.

 

[Spang]

He and I share a birthday.

I like that song he did.. I've forgotten what it's called or any of the lyrics or the tune but I remember I liked it. Something about a girl. That one.

 

[hungryraccoon]

Vegas Girl? Could swear there's some dodgy lyrics in that.

I like Animal - his new(?!) song.

Never heard of him before. You're right, he's cute.

Quinoa is overrated.

 

[Freesia]

I find quinoa bland but useful. I like to smother it in sauces. I made a quinoa stir fry last week, pretty simple but turned out ok.

 

[KLS52]

I love it in soup.

 

[RabbitLuvr]

I will eat all the quinoa.

Just watched an old episode of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" that used the term "kaffir" without any indication that the word was inappropriate at all.

Wow.

Times have changed.

How is this an unpopular opinion? Do you think that word should not be considered inappropriate?
