I personally know someone who got depression because of a bad case of acne that caused excessive ridicule from other people. He didn't kill himself, but it had crossed his mind. Now tell me that is stupid.
Actually, acne is a proven cause for certain cases of depression, which is pretty broad in category.
But hey, it'd be better not to go into specifics, otherwise we're all stupid:crazy:

I actually anticipated that response. And I had no anwser of the top of my head.

IOU a valid response. I'll get back when I'm sober. I was hoping you'd be too stupid to catch my error :lol:

You're a quasi-intellectual androtop broham. Take your sh*t somewhere else.

You're downplaying racism by comparing it to any other sledge in your suggestion that if racist sledging is banned all sledging should be banned. As if to imply they're on an equal footing.

This is elementary stuff.

You seem to be playing devils advocate for the sake of it.
No... I merely stated that there are varying degrees of 'sledging' in which words or insults can often be just as bad as racism.
I'm certainly not implying that the general 'Hey idiot' remark is on the same level as racism. The Corey Patterson issue is a prime example of that. But who am I kidding? I guess in some people's worlds, it's just black or white, racism or no racism, anything outside of that is 'okay' or just 'going overboard'.
Perhaps, by your own words, I may be 'downplaying' racism, but in saying that, you inherently 'downplay' discrimination which comes in various other forms, just like how you ignorantly 'downplayed' cases of acne. You hardly seem like a better person than the ideals you try to represent.

No need. You have done a good job of making a total goose of yourself in here already. Surely you don't need to make it any worse for yourself.

And what, calling someone a androtop is acceptable to, is it?

It's not 'racism' so apparently it is.

It's not about what you said so much as the position you were coming from, or appeared to come from.

Your earlier posts served no purpose other than to gloss over the racist sledging and downplay the issue at hand.

Comparing acne to racism is exactly what I'm talking about. It's f**king ridiculous

So basically we've established that Stain fans think Farah should "harden up" and since racism is still prevalent in society it is acceptable on the field

And they wonder why everyone hates them

Racism is no more serious than someone with a few spots on their face :crazy:

The Drag Queens will use any argument to defend their mans inherant racist views

You keep saying "they wonder why everyone hates them". Show me where one Dragon fan has complained about everyone hating them, or asked why.

You are starting to sound like a scratched record, rp

I'm not sure that he did say that to Farah. On sports ears I heard farah say to young, "you called me a Mediterranean Descendant."

Young then said, "I did not say that."

I thought Mediterranean Descendant stopped being offensive at some point. I call myself a Mediterranean Descendant, I call my mates Mediterranean Descendants also. And I enjoyed The Mediterranean Descendant Boy. I feel bad now.

Ummmmm.... there is a bit of a difference in calling someone a "f**king Mediterranean Descendant" as opposed to using the term casually in a fun/friendly nature

A self discriminator!!! The worst kind... :p

I gotta be on BLKOUT's side for this one.

I've got close mates i call f**ken Mediterranean Descendants and they call me a f**ken shkippy. After reading this post I now realise next time I see them, I'm gonna smack them with my boomerang! Racist bastards.
