	Holy shit. More of the 'holy shit' because I saw this huge post, which was... more or less not wanky (though the definitions of rape vs 'oh, that's not what they meant by it' posts were awesome) but I didn't see this particular one. shakes her head That person is a whole lot of 'wow'.

bondagedolly: "I was a victim of sexual abuse, and this comment made me shake my head. I see and hear the word rape all the time and it doesn't make me flinch, or have flashbacks, or cry, or anything else because it's just a word. If people want to use it to describe how they got killed in a game, go for it.

I wish all the people who aren't victims of sexual abuse would stop speaking for those who are. If the word "rape" offends you I can understand and respect that. But trying to get the word banned for me? No thanks, I can speak for myself, you don't have to do it for me."

What an amazing bastion of sense in this shitstorm of wankery.

	...why don't they just ban that one particular offensive use of the word, rather than the word wholesale, if it's upsetting people...? I don't support censorship, but if the modly ones have determined something must be done, that seems more sensible than banning any use at all. (Reply to this)

	"Freedom of speech. Yeah right. You people don't even know what that MEANS." It means that Little Miss 'Yanno' has made me want to use the word 'rape' in and out of context at every available opportunity. Yanno. (Reply to this)(Thread)

Trust me, I was sorely tempted to make a new post in the community with the word 'RAPE' all in giant font with big sparklies and perhaps a scrolling macro.

It would have been doubly hilarious because the last wank we had (that I can recall) was about having moderated posting.

I restrained myself, however. Trying not to get banned - though this post may well cause that to happen anyway!

I love how she said she was leaving over and over again. I was almost afraid she wouldn't reply to me (

tamchronin) the last two times.

Okay. I wanked at her pretty hard. ~ashamed~ Can I get a moist towlette? A washcloth? Soap and water? A nice, long, hot shower?

Boobies?

In a non-wanky sense, this is my favorite post. Really people, rape has more than one meaning. It is not ONLY the act of asserting your power over another human being in a violent, non-consensual, sexual manner. That's just the most common context in this day and age.

	Would it be OK to assert that my cake was raped by frosting? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	tehrin 2007-09-26 04:42 pm UTC (link)
	Unless it's buttercream. The cake wouldn't be able to recover from such a waste of perfectly good butter and sugar. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	llama_treats 2007-09-26 04:44 pm UTC (link)
	But to exclude buttercream would be an affront to the working class. :( (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Your icon is a trigger for me... makes me want to sex up some Butterman. What an awful thing that is. I may have to give up the internets forevar. I'm so behind on this non-wank. Sorry for the random, but I saw Danny doing his explode-y head thing and was 'triggered' to comment ya know? HA! Shooting a guy's head - triggerery... Yeah, I got nothin'. (Reply to this)(Parent)
