I was getting ready to post this. Nigga, it cost you free ninety-nine to keep this to yourself, my Jesus.

[sandstorm]

lol I submitted it too and when it was rejected I was like 'PLEASE I HOPE SOMEONE BEAT ME TO IT."

[msbombtastic]

Lmao I was literally thinking "why on earth would he share this?"

‘Come on, that’s a joke! I say it in the movie Stuck on You!’ She went to her room and wrote a very long, beautiful treatise on how that word is dangerous. I said, ‘I retire the f-slur!’ I understood.”

why does this read like a scene from bojack horseman

His daughter is Lisa Simpson. I'm glad she spoke up, but I'm confused about the treatise, why not just tell her dad why she thinks it's wrong? Also, English isn't my first language and I had to look up treatise.

He must be really stubborn or annoying to talk to, if she had to build an ENTIRE argument on her own before saying anything...

[iznanassi]

Yeah my mom is like this, if i try to argue with her in person she'll mock me, gaslight me, and just generally be so awful about it that i no longer even entertain a discussion with her. If i put it in writing she doesnt have that time to do that so she actually listens.

This is not the cute or inspiring story he seems to think it is. MONTHS??? Dude.

[walterwhiteh2o]

He's an asshole and an idiot. Your daughter had to write you a letter for you to understand why that word is wrong?

[gillenvillain]

THIS

Seriously, you HAD to be schooled by your kid? WTF? Nothing in your egotistical, over paid brain said (over DECADES) that this slur is awful and you shouldn't use it? Saying it was what you did when you were young, doesn't make it any better considering you only RECENTLY stopped saying it, you fucking shithole.

WTF is wrong with him? (rhetorical question)

[malorn]

To be honest, I'm counting on all the kids to school all their idiot parents, but realize this is a monumental and unfair task because: NOT THEIR JOB. This is the world we're in. :/

[musicnkisses]

How didn’t you know? Why did you think this was a good story? Me is baffled!

[hinadori]

The fact he thought this is actually a cute story to share…☠️

[gillenvillain]

Exactly.

Um, this isn't that 'story' that shows you've matured and evolved in such things. Nah, buddy. Your kid had to fucking school your homophobic ass.
