Having suffered multiple concussions, what's wrong with that phrasing? Is everything offensive nowadays?

Having suffered multiple concussions, what's wrong with that phrasing? Is everything offensive nowadays?
- nixpulvis 8y agoYes, fuck you. ;)
- ihuman 8y agoCalling the author brain-damaged doesn't say why the writing is bad, its just ad hominem
- ayq 8y agoIt's just rhetoric, only a brain-damaged person wouldn't see it.
- jbhatab 8y agoI understand where your coming from, but just imagine if you were brain damaged or one of your family was brain damaged. Merry Christmas :)
- wongarsu 8y agoIt's calling the writing style brain-damaged (making it a metaphor). Similarly, saying "your writing style is beautiful" and "you are beautiful" express very different meanings. Just as an ugly person can have a beautiful writing style, a healthy person can write something in a brain-damaged writing style.
- zaq_xsw 8y ago"Everything" isn't offensive, no. But some things are, to some people, and sometimes for good reasons. We should try to be a bit more careful in our talking and thinking, I think.
- nixpulvis 8y agoI think, too, sometimes, but not too much, or else I get no sleep, but please don't hate my use of commas and run on sentences, I swear I'm making a point.
