[QUOTE=Cane Corso;44550318]Political correctness.
Identifying oneself using sexuality.
Weird shit on the whole. Dammit today's men look like women and today's women look like men. What the hell is wrong with the human race?[/QUOTE]
you are a societal problem that needs to be solved
What I wish to be solved is what I refer to as "Ghetto speak"
When people just say 'axe' instead of 'ask', or 'scuse me' instead of excuse me, or even the constant use of the word 'Nigga' in conversation.
If you're going to speak English, then please at least speak it correctly without slicing the first letters/switching around the letters in the word, or dropping a derivative of a racial slur every few minutes.
Sure, they may be used to it, or they learned to speak that way, and it may seem faster than saying the whole word for some of them, but it may be hard to lose that habit of speaking like that, and it'll only work against them in the business world.

[QUOTE=WeekendWarrior;44516094]But he's talking about the people? Contrary to popular belief, not every religious person is a raging homophobe. You can be a decent person and religious, it's not impossible.[/QUOTE]
I, am a Catholic.
I have no problem with gay people.
I have no problem with other religions, or atheism. Even when attacked for my beliefs, I have never struck back or called someone stupid for not believing in a higher power.
The code is "love thy neighbor". Doing something to attack hurt others for their beliefs, sexual preference, or racial background would go against that commandment, and therefore contradict the very faith I stand for. Plus, if the government allows me to practice my faith, there's no reason I should have a problem with someone else getting the same freedom.
This doesn't apply to homosexuals, people of another faith, or no faith at all. "Love thy neighbor" applies to your fellow human beings. The polar opposite of discrimination. Be kind to all.
Everyone has a chance to prove to me they have some good inside, even if they've shown signs of being total asses. I still talk to them calmly, collected, and non-aggressive.
Back in middle school, I had a kid call me a waste of sperm to my face. I did not raise my voice, I did not raise my fist. I simply laughed and stopped trying to communicate.
I, am a Catholic. And this is what we are really like.
[B]Edit:[/B] I am also not perfect. I can be a real asshole.
I find it unfair that women can dress and act like men but men acting and dressing like women is considered weird. Don't get me wrong, it's awesome that women have the freedom to be as masculine as they want- it used to be weird for women to even wear pants instead of dresses, that's ridiculous. All I'm asking is equality the other way around. Guy's wearing make-up or men who are stay-at-home-dads get too much flak when they don't deserve any at all.
If that's how they want to look or if that's how they want to raise their family, so be it. Good for them.

I hate to admit it, but I always sort of wanted to try on a dress, just to feel how it's like.

I've never seen anybody make fun of a man in a kilt.

Politicians/Corruption. Very similar.
I wish I could listen to folk music without being told I was a looser

I believe the word you are looking for here is "Ebonics"
also I dont ever hear people say 'scuse me' its more like 'scuse you' instead lol
and it sounds like this:
[video=youtube;klxGFAnY4nI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klxGFAnY4nI[/video]
imo I prefer listening to people speaking ebonics than perfect english because to me it sounds a lot friendlier and funny.
Also you can speak ebonics without having to use profanity, so ebonics shouldnt really be frowned upon just because you hear a bunch of people speaking it saying 'nigga..'.
Capitalism, shaming, and lack of empathy.
Gun laws.
Fascists and Communists.
I wish for egalitarianism to be the true way in which humanity lives.
