The DERP! thread

The funniest part about this is, kchusker_chris and I don't agree on a lot of things, but we both agree that whatever was taken from the thread wasn't an attack and wasn't offensive.

I blame Redux for starting the Derp Thread. SOB.

I blame JJ for having a mangina!

Damn, that was probably offensive to people who actually HAVE mangina's....

People like JJ, BURN!!!

We just don't agree that browsing Huskerboard at work is not in the best interest of most employees (stated while I sit at work on HB)....can't think of too many other things.

(but I still think you're a major douche for always arguing w/ me about the first)

This is where we disagree - that's NOT why I'm a major douche. I'm a major douche for entirely different reasons.

^ is it ok to say douche?

Well, so I can't possibly be misconstrued as the turd in the punchbowl, I'm not stepping back anything I've said either. It's a ridiculous, misplaced ruling. Nobody was attacked. Sexual orientation wasn't under fire here. It was in the shed. Hell, a comment as innocuous as that should've flown outside the shed. Claiming "inclusivity" or some protected status from offense based on sexual orientation is about the stupidest thing I've heard this week.

The slippery slope of our head in a$$ PC culture.

NOTE - This was a quote from a post that was removed while I typed my reply. It's explanatory for what happened here, which is why I saved it.

It would be great to see you make these statements when you were arguing, but instead, you used sexual orientation to insult someone. If you are bothered by that or, more aptly, someone calling you out for it, then maybe don't degrade the sexual orientation of others. You all want to make all of these shades of grey. "It's the Woodshed". "I'm not offended". "Why do we have to be inclusive".

Well, the rules are there as clear guides for how the board is run. If you don't like us telling you to be inclusive, then don't be racist, sexist, homophobic, or prejudice.

I wasn't in any way being homophobic. It's offensive to me that you're implying that.




This line of explanation has me wondering - was the "offensive" post reported by a member, or did a mod make the decision on their own to remove it?

Probably best to spell it "dousche" if you do.

I get that everyone is stepping back their comments now. However, we you are arguing on the board and use sexual orientation to attack someone, there is the line. Our board rules state we do not allow others to offend based on race, creed, national origin, sexual orientation or other discriminatory or racial basis. Hopefully, that clears up the issue.

Nobody is stepping back anything. Nobody attacked anyone using sexual orientation, and nobody crossed any line. I know the board rules very well, and helped clarify or construct many of them.

I would prefer not to be told that I'm attacking someone, especially in a way that violates board rules, when that is in no way what I did. Especially when the person who was "attacked" doesn't feel they were attacked, either.

Do we have to like it? Asking for a friend.

This is an ignorant stance and one that is easily made by mid-age white men in America (a demographic that does not exclude myself). Nothing is offensive until it offends you. Well, there are other perspectives than your own.

This is a question directed at my character. I will 100% deny the bold. That's bullsh#t.
