politically correct language wank
In the linguaphiles community, a user takes the wording of a sports headline very, very seriously.

Whenever there is linguaphiles-wank there is [info]rydel23 she/he (it has been discussed I just can't remember the outcome) is so filled with White-Russian Belarussian self-importance it's amazing.

Please get that person a sense of humour.

There's no need to troll. Someone will bring up Ebonics again soon - it's inevitable.

Near the top, rydel23: Belarus suffered so much from the Russians. For more than two centuries were were under the most vicious of all occupations, with our culture almost totally obliterated and now they call us "White Russians"

The a looong way down, co_lum_bus: He doesn not even live there, he lives in Germany and an anon: Yet more, he's not even an ethnic Belorussian, and his wife is Albanian.

rydel23 again: Oh, Columbus, my Rrrrrussian friend

Um, my very intelligent comment on all this is... wtf?

Get the stick out of this rydel guy's ass. Maybe he needs a White Russian...erm... Belarusian...to take the edge off of the ass pain?

I can't believe I'm in linguaphiles and I missed this.
