Just because you refuse to understand that acceptance of a word, no matter how foul, was entirely dependant on the region it was used doesn't mean Lemmy or anyone else is accepting it. People here just understand that Britain in the 1950s was far different in cultural acceptance than the US in 1950.

Just like the USA using "That's gay" as a casual insult as late as the mid 2000s is now considered inappropriate today. I'm queer and I know Brits who still say "pass me a fag". Guess who isn't upset about hearing that because I'm not a moron.

"If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole."

or, of course, it could be that you're just so much better than everyone else, right?

they do say that if you always expect the worst you're never disappointed... but it definitely won't make you happy.
