You're saying that gaming term is "crusty and old" therefore your misinterpretation of his statement and your emotional outrage is justified?
What is the cutoff date for terms we can use that won't confuse and emotionally outrage you?
- orf 4y agoI’m clearly saying, like others are in this thread, that just because you associate calling someone a “farmer” with an anachronistic gaming term doesn’t mean that almost everyone will read it in a different way, nor does it mean that your interpretation is correct. ‘What do you do for a job?’ ‘I’m a farmer’ ‘Oh right what’s the best quest to farm on in WOW?’ Said nobody ever. It reads very poorly, in short.
- hunterb123 4y agoWhy do you think he put it in quotes? Did you read the full context, or just rage at the cut out sentence that someone else here provided to you? It's very clear in long form what he was talking about. He has no control of people taking one sentence out of a long opinion that he has written. It's up to you to inform yourself before joining the mob and sharpening your pitchfork.
- orf 4y ago> Why do you think he put it in quotes? Because they are not actually farmers, but have similar negative stereotypical traits? Why are you so eager to accuse everyone of blind rage? I read the whole thing. It’s bog standard “these kids on my lawn” stuff which isn’t worth any brain power discussing. However, you not being able to understand why people didn’t assign some convoluted meaning to the word farmer is quite interesting.
