Well KB it is offensive to a some people here obviously so I agree that it has to also be pulled up. We can not have as Tbag says double standards in banning some thing that is considered offensive to some and not ban something considered offensive to others so we should be calling OMG offensive in this forum as well.

It has been accepted as normal for a while and most did not object despite being offended. The landscape has now changed with the ruling and banning of Gay. This being the case, any one who finds OMG or any other thing they consider offensive should now have the right to call it as the precedent has been set.

i can see why "gay" can be seen as offensive in ways that it's used people put down things by calling it/them gay which means they are putting down "gay" people also saying they are bad

cant see why "OMG" can be seen as offensive i mean how does "oh my god" disrespect "god" in anyway it's not putting him/whoever down it's just a figure of speech

so are we going to ban "holy shower" to? if i cared remotely i'd find that more offensive then "OMG"

and not to mention the G in "OMG" could mean anything for example "oh my Gollum"

On that last point, well it's like saying "No, I meant gay as in 'happy!'"

It's probably got something to do with people believing that one should not use the Lord's name in vain.

Some random initially posted about whether people remembered Jessica from last season BATG. Then a few weeks later, I posted a link to pictures of the beauties from this season. I think tbag then said the word 'gay' and shower took off.

This thread's progression has been simply remarkable. Keep up the goodness fellas.

The irony is, if you want to ban people for saying "omg" then you cant ban people for saying "gay"
