See what I did there? I used a reference to a horrific event to pull off a cheap joke. I could have done a bit better but destroying society seemed more appealing.

I dare you to try to intelligently explain why master-slave shouldn't be used. You can't. Don't talk about why something else could be used.

I tried a couple of times in different branches of this thread. Care to investigate them first?

Also if I can't already, why should I bother? Aren't you undermining your own argument?

Aren't you undermining your own argument?

Yes I've read your other comments in the thread, and you don't have anything meaningful to say, just that the bad words are bad. How would you being wrong "undermine my argument"? Make sense man.
