I don't know about the grandparent, but I dislike the word in many contexts because it makes other people extremely uncomfortable. It was probably more frequent than "the" or "a" in my casual speech while I was in the military, but I'm not in the military at the moment, and other people matter.
- pyrocat 13y agothe key is to not give a shit about those people
- stan_rogers 13y agoNo, the key is not to offend people who don't particularly need to be offended. You aren't talking about "freedom", you're talking about being abrasive for no good reason. There are rude words that you may freely use to describe that sort of person, should you wish.
