I think talking about things like this is worthwhile in the context of the general modding of this forum.
Far easier when it comes to TG. Maybe it's not true when it comes to '******' but it's clearly near the line when it comes to the general view of what's acceptable around here. It's not a big deal for people to stop using it so better to err in that direction.
Maybe Jalfrezi or some other Uker can comment but it's not a particularity UK type insult (at least not when I was in the playground). Seems more American and I tend to equate it to other more common UK insults that I'm more confident in objecting to.

If that's not a basketball team I don't know wtf you're talking about.
I'll say many bad things about the arsenal but I would never stoop to accusing them of playing basketball.

Wait, chez, p.s.
Why would I send you an abusive PM? I can recall only 1 time even getting annoyed with you in a post. That's one of my main points here!
Which ties in to the reference to "others you (I) admire." If this is referencing Fly, don't you recall my analogy about saying Fly has a wicked jump shot but he's not shooting perfect from beyond the arc? Then I said we can change that to cricket if the basketball references are failing?
The Fiasco is still strong with you but like I said, the end times are drawing nigh.
Not suggesting it was you, you're an equable chappie - I wont comment on names although it is funny the first name out of your hat was 'fly'
Yeah change it to cricket. Fly struggles against the forward defense and the straight bat. Lots of pace and aggression but has serious flaws in his technique. Top quality sledging.
