Advertising your push-button odometer and turbo decal is the saddest thing I’ve ever seen Chrysler do, and that is an extremely low bar.

At the risk of being cruel, I think Peter Moskowitz’ is trying to summon Rippon by using his name this way that he KNOWS will get shared or even noticed by the bigger blogs and aggregators.

Yeah, but NWA gave themselves that title. Does Adam Rippon refer to himself the way Peter Moscowitz has? He applied that label to Rippon.

Yeah, how well did slinging that word around work for Quinn Norton?

YOU ARE USING THIS LANGUAGE ON A PLATFORM THAT STRAIGHT PEOPLE READ, USING A SLUR THAT PEOPLE DON’T WANT TO SEE, GAY OR STRAIGHT. NO READER CAN REASONABLY MAKE THE ASSUMPTION THAT YOU ARE RECLAIMING THAT WORD IN A 6-WORD TITLE.

You are correct. I posted it yesterday.

Fuck off with that bullshit.

I’m not sure I’m able to respect anyone who posts in all caps, gay or otherwise.

I don’t think you’re in the minority with that one, which is why this piece feels extremely offensive to me, labeling someone else that way even by another gay man.

it’s the don’t do what I do defense.

But they aren’t policing you. Most of them did not say that you cannot use that word. They just said (literally) “Am I wrong for feeling uncomfortable with the way you appropriated “faggot” as term of endearment.” They didn’t say “no, you can’t use that word like that!”

But fuck the rest of us that get hurt seeing a word that was used to denigrate us, even during sometimes life-altering physical attacks on us as kids or adults?

THE ENTIRE POINT OF THE ARTICLE IS THAT I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WHAT STRAIGHT PEOPLE THINK ABOUT ME AND THE WAY I USE LANGUAGE IN ORDER TO FEEL VALID AND RESPECTED. IF THEIR ALLYSHIP RELIES ON POLICING MY LANGUAGE ITS NOT FUCKING ALLYSHIP

I am a gay man. This word was viciously hurled at me every day of my young adulthood, as a way to discredit my humanity and put me in my place. To remind me, less I saw myself as a human being, that I was not welcome to the table. Believe it or not, that has an impact on a person. Not insignificant.

Well, I am gay and FUCK YOU for thinking you pull out your gay card and use it as an excuse for putting that word out there.

Sorry, I don’t know anyone named Mary.

Can the Left let the families grieve for even 24 hours before they push their anti-gun and anti-gunowner agenda? My goodness. This isn’t about a gun it’s about another lunatic. #FloridaShooting

What’s the point? It’d be far cheaper and easier to just engineer a tube frame and just scratch build the car. You can still still probably source two dozen Ferrari engines and transmissions, without cutting up existing cars (and why do they have to be Scuderias and not just normal ones?). I’m sure the conversion is…
