Why is it...

...That when people want to insult a person, they'll use their mother as an example? I've been pondering this as of late, and it bothers me. What about people out there without a mother?

Wouldn't you feel like a dick if you said to someone who's mother died, "Your momma is...insert your momma joke here...?" It's really pretty assinine. Why do insults have to be partaining to someone's parent, or family?

I know some mother's aren't worth a shit, and raise retarded kids, and oughta be insulted. But you don't know about a person's home/family life, whether the family member you insult is dead or alive. It's really pretty insensitive.

Coming from a person who's mother died, I can say, if anyone said a "your momma" to me, I'd pop 'em one.

Well technically Battier if you want to go that route, one should not insult anyone for any reason actually. Because everyone is someones chuild, sister, brother, daughter, or son. Im sure their kin wouldnt take kindly to someone being mean to their own etc.

Oh fuck off, C. You're so full of shit. It doesn't matter what anyone says. Insulting someone's mother isn't an answer, or grandmother.

rdhull is right. rolleyes It's just a matter of not insulting people.

But let me ask you this C, what if someone insulted your mother, and say, she were dead? Would you like that? Fuck no, you wouldn't. Just the fact someone said something about the mother you loved. It's just not the answer. Come up with something better than "I'm fuckin' yo' mama."

This wasn't a thread to jab you, dear, it was a thread to jab people who use mama jokes in general. There's nothing cool about that. It's not cool to insult people racially, either. Did I fucking say it was? Hmm, no, I don't believe I did!

Naw but when MucusGarvey said his racial stuff all you could do was say i love you irishecho.When i attack him you devote a thread to my response(look at it through my eyes).
My remarks are CLEARLY directed to him.That's why i don't use the general racist insults.

It's not as if people aren't covering the racism side of things, is it. No one gives a fuck if you mess with someone's mother.

Then why talk about someone's mother in the first place?

Word..Im sure Battier takes unmbrage with mom comments because of her own situation but I know The C meant no harm or disrespect to the dearly departed etc. Orgnote each other instead to iron it out.

Hey I have an idea - let's lock this dumb flamebait thread shall we? Yeah, that sounds like a laugh lol

Seriously though - BattierBeMyDaddy, you've only yourself to blame for this thread being locked. In what way do you think saying "you're so full of shit" to theC fits in with the rules of this forum, which I have explained to you at great length several times?

Save the flames for private messages please.

I think you are all very naughty indeed and deserve a slap with a big fish for your troubles. fishslap
