Why "Derp" shouldn't be offensive

Posted by JakBaronKing - February 29th, 2012


Example word "Womp"

REFERENCE:

"Derp" is not offensive. It's a made up word.

Remember the "Recess" cartoon? There was this episode called "Womp".

Words are just words.

They have no real power without intention of the people who use them.

So called "inappropriate' words can be very uplifting and encouraging if spoken with kindness and grace.

And very 'safe' words can have a very strong impact of emotional pain if spoken with cruelness and hate.

People are cruel, inappropriate, and offensive.

Not Words.


Comments

I agree. Sort of reminded me of a time some user's accounts got deleted on NG for making up a word that spammers took over. Also Recess was an awesome show. Wonder if that episode had any connection to Frindle which ilovemuse told me about after those accounts got deleted.

"Frindle"?

That old children's story book? I never read it.

You are a faggot.

Hostility is a sign of a weak intellect.

Cruelty is a sign of a sad heart.

...

Course then again, sometimes people are just jerks.

Yes. Neither have I but from what I gathered the plot is similar.

omtish? ...omtish !

What does "omtish" mean!?
