I saw this post come up this morning. I thought: "OK, it's not horribly bad; it looks like the OP, after some comments, could see why this is offensive and maybe it'll be okay!" This is the text of the OP's post, in case it gets taken down.

I know, I know. My consolation: ffr jumping on the offenders. That's why I love it. At least people are called out.

Thank you! How did the moving go?

I caved when I saw their diversity statement. I read it and my face was just :D :D :D.
I like lj because there's so many communities here and everyone seems to still be here *whines* I wish they could just all hop over to dw, but I think eventually they will (I hope.)

Thanks! I'll definitely contact you if I run into trouble.

You know what's really fun? When, at the end of my comment thread with saciel, where I have spent the entire time telling her that the tone argument is bad and why, a random stranger pops in to tell me that I'm right and saciel's horrible and this is blatantly clear because I'm being calm and reasonable and saciel's swearing.

OMG JUST SHOOT ME.

*covers face* Your icon is entirely appropriate.

I can't shoot you, but I can give you a flamethrower. azuire gave me one. :D (also, that beach pebble comment? with kutsuwamushi's comment, it just made me :D)

I had to step away from that comment Kutsu replied to, there was just so much LOLWUT to it (I loved Kutsu's comment though, it was exactly what I was thinking only with the HAHAHAHAWTF?STFU! inferred rather than spoken outright.) But woohoo for flame throwers!
