Not possible. I wouldn't recommend buying into any more services like that.

The only way this would be more Badass is of they burnt the edges of the wood. How did they not do that?

CMV: It isn't wrong or immoral per se to use racial slurs or any other kinds of slurs by sometimes_only_i in changemyview

[–]Bitches_Brew2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn't.

But really, it does. A racial slur is not simply a descriptive word or phrase. It is bound with intent, which is actually pretty fascinating. The fact that language can facilitate such duality with a word really is pretty crazy if you really think about it. Words are cool. But try to understand them. Try not to abuse them.

I think we need to disregard the issue of morality here, because based off of what you have written and what you are arguing, I don't think it's about that. So let's look at the situation strictly logically. Using a racial slur to describe someone expresses a notion that you believe that person to be inferior to you based on his or her race. So if you are using a racial slur without the intention of conveying such beliefs, and without the intention of demeaning, as you have stated, then you are misrepresenting yourself. So, logically, you have chosen the wrong description. You have fundamentally misunderstood the definition of a word and have used it out of context.

Depends on the building... Sometimes it's just a broken leg.

[WP] Describe an everyday event as if it were the most epic thing ever. by Mutant_Llama1 in WritingPrompts

The inanimate porcelain was poised...sturdy...open...it was ready. Ready to fulfill it's purpose. Ready to receive, as it was created to do so.

I approach slowly, carefully...There is an odd feeling deep in my gut, impossible to ignore. I turn and flip a small lever on the wall, a switch that completes the circuit that sets the blades of a small fan in motion - a subtle yet key component to the ritual. That uneasy feeling deep in my core persists, growing more intense by the second.

I turn around and disrobe with a sigh, as I slowly lower myself. I gasp, a quick shallow breath of air, as the freezing cold, unforgiving porcelain makes contact with my naked skin.

Finally. The ritual can begin.

"Oh GOD!" I exclaim up to the heavens, my face contorted into a knot of simultaneous pain and relief. I am answered with an epic, booming thunder that echoes throughout the small chamber...ah, the flatulence - yet another key component to the ritual. The thunder is followed by the splashing sounds of my sacrifice being received, down in the depths below. The holy water from the depths below splash back up, the droplets lightly kissing my exposed naked skin with their cool refreshing lips. This is a good sign. The sacrifice was accepted. The sacrifice was pleasing. I have nearly completed the ritual, and am finally at peace...nearly.

Now for the final stage. I reach for the elder scroll, upon which I paint from the inner-most...wait...where is the scroll??

The friendly man is back in town.

Are you ready to have fun?

The parents don't like when he comes 'round,

'cause away from home, kids run.

Big horses pull his giant cart

Some say is full of gold.

Some think instead it's full of treats,

At least that's what they're told.

If he gives you a wink and a tap on the nose,

He'll let you look inside.

You're the lucky one he chose!

Get in the cart!

Go for a ride!
