Fascist. (Just kidding)

Eh, I don't feel like arguing this one out. I see too many problems with requiring information from internet users.

I suggest you read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism before using the term.

What part of "just kidding" didn't you understand, Animal? I know full and well what that term means. I was using the word for humor.

Sheesh.

Some words are not funny.

Fascist is a perfectly funny word. Try it sometime. When someone orders you to take out the trash, say, "Fascist..." quietly.

It's amusing to me, at least.

You see, I know what the word means. I know its history. I also know that you don't. You were using it in context like someone else would say "nazi". That is what makes it unfunny.

If you knew the history of Fascism, then you would have used it like you would "Democrat" or "Republican". Again, this is unfunny but not as insulting as Nazi.

It is one of those overused words.

*sigh* :roll:

The humor was in the fact that it was being misused. I do know the history of the word, fuck you very much for assuming otherwise.

Last time I try to make a joke around you, Animal. Sheesh.

This is it?

I get PMs from everybody and I expect to see some blood bath and this is all there is?

Or is there something else I just haven't found yet?

Sheesh, guys, lighten up.

How odd, Animal is known far and wide for his bubbly personality and great sense of humour... Why just the other day we were laughing like children at recess... I hope he's OK.
In my hands I hold a candle whose flame is small to see, And if I give but one light to you my life is filled for me.
But...In your hands you hold a torch for many eyes to see, So hold it high that they may light their candlewicks from thee.
