American people do, yes. At least for the last few years. Rest-of-world is more relaxed about it. And here in the UK it can be a sign of affection to call a friend a 'daft cunt'.
Autre pays, autre moeurs.
- Asbostos 11y agoYep. Austrialians I know are notorious for calling things "gay". I don't think the concept of gayness is going on in their heads, that's just the word they grew up using to make complaints with. This Billy even said that all his friends were assholes and he likes them that way. They probably "insult" each other as much as they did the programmers and it'd just their culture.
