Really? Did you READ the link I posted? Did you play the video of Obama that was contained in it? Was all that just a slip of the tongue?
Not trying to go too far off-topic, but how is 8/10 slip of the tongues, not "most"? I didn't say "all" I said most, and then in-fact went on to say how sometimes it is used intentionally. The reason I brought up the "slip of the tounge" is because most of the ones in the link you posted were slip of the tounges, and my point was that most of the time (but not all) it is not intentional, and they don't "write" it in, Churchill wasn't the most polite guy alot of the time but in his "we shall fight on the beaches" speech I don't remember him going "wtf gtfo we gonna pwn u." Or other such antics.
That's the kind of thing you see on facebook, not politics. Although having said that, sometimes the posts on here don't differ much anymore from facebook spam. What a world it would be, to have real PnP.
As for the acronyms, an easy solution to avoid possible infractions, is to spend the extra 5 seconds writing out the 2-5 word phrase. If you are writing a block post anyway (which I see alot of people use acronyms when writing essay-like posts and find it odd) another couple of words isn't going to hurt.
I am nearly 18 (a month off) and I personally don't wish to read the over-use of it. Ironically it's in place for the children, but it's usually the kids who want to swear and the older ones who don't.
