    Ha!....long run fighting with the wife has made us both happier. That is what I told Cippy, I don't pretend apologize to my wife so I sure as shit ain't apologizing to dudes on a message board.

    If I feel I was wrong I'll apologize. If I feel like there is a legit reason even though I didn't mean it that way I'll explain.

    Fake apologies piss me off and you can search my posts for celebrities doing it if you care. Bothers the shit out of me.

    Again, the lack of empathy means you think apologizing when you’re not wrong is fake (apologizing when you’re not regretful is fake, yes). I’m glad you have an accord with your wife; she sounds like a good and patient person.

    I don't want to arm no fucking teachers. If sane teachers sneak a gun to school every day and one ends up taking out a psycho I'd throw him or her a parade.

    She's also wrong often as she is a human being. Same as Dviss. I'm not going to apologize for something I didn't do and I never will.

    What's funny is how you admit you said it to me because I'm black.... Right above in black and white... And racist jokes in your opinion are "pure gold"....

    Sigh just put me on ignore man...

    Apologies are actually rather useless.
    Friends rarely need them and only enemies demand them, then take them as a sign of weakness.

    Where have I defended him? I wasn't even talking about his post.

    I asked at the very beginning for someone to explain to me how "edumacate" was racist.

    You could have said, "the word in itself is not racist. The person saying it to me was being racist." And I would have accepted that and moved on. It had nothing to do with his post specifically. I wanted to know if the word, by itself, was considered racist. That's it. That's all. Nothing else. No agenda.

    Moreso with the older generation.

    Which, was quickly supported by one of the old-timers pointing this out, and the first two folks that liked this comment are also old-timers.

    Because I don't care about Dviss feuding with people on this forum. That's between him and them.

    But when someone says that a word is racist, and I have never heard anything tying that word to being racist, I'm just going to ask for some clarification. If he had simply said, "the word isn't the problem. It's the entire sentence and how he was talking to me," problem solved. I get it.

    But I want to know, if I'm hanging with my friends and someone says, "I'm gonna get me an edumacation," are some people going to take that as offensive to black people? And if so, why? Good grief, questions are usually considered a good thing. Curiosity leads to better understanding. Or I guess we can just take someone's word for it. :dunno:
