Exactly. These guys are on a round-the-clock internet hunt for **** that makes them angry. What a life.

I thought by posting the guys... heartfelt... apology, it might have diffused some of the fake outrage here. Apparently not; as you say, the hunt is strong here!
As opposed to those who are on a round-the-clock REAL LIFE hunt for sh*t that offends them? Yeah, that's a much better life lol
"Oh no, the theme of that private party I wasn't invited to offends me, I better call in a flash mob and shut it down."
And yes, that has happened.
Precisely. Argument by anecdote. Amounts to "Well, there was this one time. . ."
No, that was just one example, not the only time it's happened.
Canadian and American universities are just FULL of losers looking for reasons to be offended, or haven't you been paying attention.
Old decorations in trees are suddenly nooses for Black people. A university's Hawaiian Luau themed party cancelled because the perpetually offended found it offensive to Hawaiians of Polynesian decent.
Free yoga classes for the disabled are temporarily suspended at the University of Ottawa because some perpetually offended f*ck-wit cried about it being cultural appropriation.
Shall I go on? Eric Brazau is once again going to jail for having an opinion. Only this time he's in trouble for getting beat up for his opinion. It's gotten so ridiculous in Ontario that words have become a crime while assault is considered a legal defense for having one's widdle feewings hurt.
The last time he was arrested some bimbo hit the emergency stop on the subway train because she was sooo offended he didn't like Islam. She wasn't charged with anything, even though it's illegal to use the emergency stop for anything other than an actual emergency. Being offended isn't an emergency.
Would you like more "anecdotes"? How many "anecdotes" does it take to make a trend by the way?
I'm sorry but I have a life away from here and the computer. I'm not going to spend all that time and effort to do something you could easily do yourself. But you won't. Most people don't like being proven wrong and even fewer will make any sort of effort to look up anything that might contradict their own POV.
Bully for you.
Including you, apparently.
Interestingly, one of your anecdotes is about the yoga class shutting down at U of Ottawa. If you were to cruise around this board, you might note that I started a thread about it, and was the first and harshest in criticizing that particular piece of asswittery. So maybe it ain't all as black and white as you think.
I'd provide a link to that thread, but, you know, "I'm not going to spend all that time and effort to do something you could easily do yourself."
