...What? Is this the Linus Sebastian misconception of what the hard R is?
- stavros 4mo agoYeeeah I'm pretty sure I've never seen a hard R on a PR.
- anonymars 4mo agoI'm guessing they are referring to a certain synonym for idiot/moron/imbecile/cretin/dolt/etc. which fell off the euphemistic treadmill
- stavros 4mo agoYeah, that's the Linus "hard R" (he thought "hard R" referred to "retard"), but it's just wrong. "Hard R" is "nigger", in opposition to soft r ("nigga"). I don't think there's even a question, that's how hard/soft has always been used. Anything else is just confusion, I think.
- piperswe 4mo agoThat would be the “Linus Sebastian misconception”
- hogwasher 4mo agoOk, but I can't possibly be the only one who has no idea who that is, let alone what misconceptions they have.
