SCUM

Hey, White/Cis/Male/Neurotypical/Straight people!
Question for you:
When did *Scum become the worst word in the world?
"OHMIGAWD They called me CisScum. That's totally our Nword now!"

But 0/0 can mean infinity, zero, or a specific number? Like, if the maximum score is 0 and you get 0, it doesn't say anything about your performance.

It should be 0/infinity, IMO.

It was implied! But yeah, my bad.

Re: SCUM

(Anonymous) 2014-07-26 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
It isn't?

I mean I don't really care to be called scum or trash for existing, but I have not seen anyone claim it's like the n word and I'm positive you're just doing that to fan flames.

I bet this won't get a single serious response.

I saw the thread title and my mind went right to Valerie Solanas.

Right? Same here.

I know it's not as bad as being called a nigger, but it's not particularly pleasant to be called scum. I think that's where the butthurt comes from. I don't think the butthurt is right, but it is sort of understandable, isn't it?

I'm assuming you're being serious, but if you're trolling please go kill yourself, fagscum.

Ugh, summer's strong with that last line.

Man do I wish Case would keep on IP logging, he turns it off for one day and all these fucking trolls. Yes, I mean ayrt. Death threats and calling someone a fag, super classy. Why can't we have funny trolls? We just get this fucking obnoxious kids.

Re: SCUM

(Anonymous) 2014-07-26 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Being butthurt about it is fine. Trying to claim they're equivalent is not only dumb, but delusional. In this case, it's like going up to someone whose leg has been mangled in a car wreck and telling them alllllll about how you stubbed your pinkie toe really bad yesterday and then expecting them to nod and fist-bump you for being a member of the Leg Injury Club.

It's not the worst thing in the world, but it's not really cricket either, is it?

Re: SCUM

Depends on weather you think turnabout is fair play.
I won't be voicing my own opinions on this super wankbait-y thread, but there is an argument that can be made.

Re: SCUM

(Anonymous) 2014-07-26 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Surely you have to decide whether turnabout is fair play or whether saying shit like this is wrong. I don't think you can have both be true.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-26 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"Turnabout is fairplay" is only a valid argument if it's actually turnabout, not being a complete jackass to random people who apparently fit a certain demographic.

They called you slurs, or otherwise harassed you? Sure, go ahead and call them scum, it's pretty valid. They committed the horrible crime of existing in the same general space as you while minding their own business? Don't be a dick.

Yeah, almost definitely a troll, but.. It's not really that the word is offensive so much as the complete torrent of misguided hate behind it.
Kinda like how some people call their friends nerds or dumbasses or whatever affectionately and it's no problem.
The word doesn't matter as much as the intent. Which I think a lot more people on tumblr should take into account, not just for the scum thing, but at least 75% of the sjw things they throw fits over
