I came into this thread to express by distain for Kesha and I feel vindicated. Lady Gaga too.

God, I must be getting to that age where I hate most current popular music. Damn kids and their music...

He's one of those people that when he's buried he should be nailed to the bottom of his coffin so there's no chance of him coming back.

Like I said, I class him with Himmler, Beria, any number of Mao's axemen.

What redneck library do you get your books from?
I mean good for you for being passionate about something, but Cubans can thank Fidel Castro for what have or don't have. Che left that country as soon as it was clear that the promised election wasn't going to happen.
He moved on to keep fighting what he really believed in, freedom. Not freedom in an American -buy everything and say whatever you want- kinda way, but freedom in the way countries like Congo or Bolivia needed and still need.

I don't support the bloodshed caused by Che's fight, Bush's fight or anyone's for that matter. It's about what he was really fighting for. Some people wear his face on a t-shirt for that reason, are they really wrong for doing it?

No, pop/top 40 music these days just suck. My generation has horrible tastes in entertainment.

I used it! why does it matter where it comes from if I know what it means and why I'm using it?

The word is used a lot here in the west so I can see why you're sick of it.

Because the term, which has significant historical meaning, has been reduced to a petty slur. You know what it's perverted meaning is, not what it really means.

What do you mean by the bolded sentence?

Historical in the US.
I get that it's a petty slur, but nowadays it has more to do with fatheaded ignorance.

Here in the west you hear and see it all the time when a jackass with an over-sized and under-used truck cuts you off in traffic and doesn't even realize he did cuz he's 5 feet off the ground.

You've seen those around here.

I'm not sure how were defining famous people with such a wide range of characters so far but here goes mine

Sarah Palin
No substance, no smarts, and Obama's best chance at getting re-elected if she stays in the spotlight.

Adam Sandler

Chris Bosh

Dane Cook

No chance she is the Republican nominee in 2012. She's not really in the spotlight anymore anyway.
