Why is everyone getting so worked up about the word f a g g o t? It's just a word, a noise. Yeah, it has contemporary cultural connotations, but obviously JWB didn't imply them in his usage of the word. By going so crazy over it and all playing white knights, all you are doing is strengthening people who do use the word offensively. Same goes for any such "offensive" words. A word is just a word until you put it in context.

You think ppl here don't already know that?

Drama thrives here cause there is literally nothing better to do, given all the sh*t that is said in this site, i doubt anyone here is offended by anything they are just opinionated about everything.
