Fucking asinine.

Adding Master & Slave to the bad word filter!

it is now the supressor and servant

Im just gonna call them "MASTER RACE DRIVE" and "WESTERN DIGITAL"

Next thing you know, the terms "male" and "female" for electrical plugs and sockets will be prohibited thanks to radical feminist reform. Or worse yet, the use of thereof.

Gloria Allred shouts, "The jamming of the plug into the outlet symbolizes rape!"

so we are going to have to us KY everytime we plug in a light?

Difference between a pregnant woman and a lightbulb?

You can unscrew the lightbulb.

*snare drum*

The Political Softing of America! comming the liberal community near you!




there is a clear line for me that defines racism.

this is 10 miles on the other side of not racist.




does anyone else see that this is a problem?

rimshot, not snaredrum!!!!!

rimshot, not snaredrum!!!!!

That is what I meant to type, but the important part was I heard the sound right in my head. (I have a small band in my head that plays theme music when I do things, and the drummer rimshots when I say something I find funny.)

props to the mad stylings of the Internal Brain Band

/rolls her eyes at the latest evidence of 'PC goons gone Wild'...

Master and Slave terminology has been around ever since people first hooked multiple drives up to each other, if not before. How completely idiotic. If it offends some folks, why don't they just use 'Mistress' and 'Peon' like we do? Oh wait, wrong topic.... ;)

And since we're talking semantics here...
"Gloria Allred shouts, "The jamming of the plug into the outlet symbolizes rape!""

Rofl! But is it rape if you take the outlet out for a lobster dinner first? ;)

What's with the smilies, Nyd?

I have a compulsion to use excessive smilies in text. Ask anyone who has been subjected to a few of my posts ;) .

Something about the lack of nuances in text...

Oh, and because I'm ready for a holiday :P
