But this is Brent's personal blog. People who register a blog have a right to say what they want on it, including this very mild profanity. There are so many blogs and websites it's easy enough to avoid one you don't like.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06590397694589547524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10697975.post-84577385877345029662012-09-17T18:40:40.590-06:002012-09-17T18:40:40.590-06:00I'm trying to understand Cindybin's furthe...I'm trying to understand Cindybin's further point here. She expressed her objection to your language (fair game), you replied that you had a different POV (and, it is obvious, YOUR blog, which generally does NOT use foul language). <br /><br />I don't see you putting her in the wrong; indeed, my reading is that she wants YOU to correct your "error," which you choose not to do. And it's a great blogging tradition to write about interesting comments to one's blog. <br /><br />I had two great posts over a post-9/11 Royal Guardsman song, in which Snoopy kills bin Laden (I think), and an interesting debate with a member of the band ensued.

Instead of feeling guilty and embarrassed that you used crude language, you write a BLOG about it and make me out to be the one in the wrong, and then you say that you wouldn't even change a word of it. This only makes me angrier and more determined to speak up. I plan to write a ton of blogs about how people use profanity online.

'Booty' would have, because it would been both anachronistic and more sexual than I think you intended.<br />I wouldn't have written it myself, though, because I'm more linguistically prudish.Roger Owen Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05298172138307632062noreply@blogger.com
