C'mon, Cap. Delete that part. It is a very small request. You can do it, big guy. It won't hurt. You would be doing a good thing. You could even make fun of me afterwards.
Sorry Native, but I wouldn't apologize for fear of being too politically correct & I doubt the fokkin' GI would either....native wrote:native wrote:

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaase?
It's OK. Whether or not I am full of sh!t, Cap owes me one.Appaholic wrote:Sorry Native, but I wouldn't apologize for fear of being too politically correct & I doubt the fokkin' GI would either....native wrote:

I understand your point, Appaholic. However, in my view it's not a question of political correctness, but of the smallest modicum of decency and respect.Appaholic wrote: ...Sorry Native, but I wouldn't apologize for fear of being too politically correct & I doubt the fokkin' GI would either....
See, I didn't take it this way way at all....you could have easily placed the fokkin in front of "life" instead of "GI" & the sentence meaning wouldn't change one iota. He stated the GI still had his life....the "fokkin" was for emphasis, not a slam on the GI IMO....native wrote:I understand your point, Appaholic.

Cap's casual, careless and crass disparagement of Staff Sgt. Patrick Zeigler, a wounded hero, crossed a line that was completely unnecessary to cross. It would be a very small matter indeed for Cap to correct his error.
I don't expect the G.I. to stand up for himself, either, Appy, but read the story and please take just a moment to put yourself in his place. If you and I don't stand up for Staff Sgt. Zeigler, who will do so? Cap's low brow "humor" is bad enough, even if the target is deserving, but it is too much in this case.
Appy, you are too kind and generous to Cap. If you, or any one of a dozen other posters had said the same thing, I would agree with your interpretation.Appaholic wrote:See, I didn't take it this way way at all....you could have easily placed the fokkin in front of "life" instead of "GI" & the sentence meaning wouldn't change one iota.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Cap. Somehow I'll just have to live with myself.Cap'n Cat wrote:Sometimes you dig so deep, native, that it becomes time to throw away the shovel.

Now do the deed so I can have the pleasure of buying you a beer.
Oh sure, I may well rot in hell alright, but I am not asking you to apologize.Cap'n Cat wrote:native wrote:

You're gonna rot in Hell before I ever apologize for anything, especially to you.

Just quietly delete the offensive phrase. Please.

Don't you have some union thug business to attend to, Cap? There must be a few innocent, law-abiding, tax-paying citizens left in Iowa whose legs your Local boss wants broken.
Maybe, but they've been outsourcing to scabs lately. At least it's a job for which you would qualify!Cap'n Cat wrote:native wrote:
