The way things are going, pretty soon we won't even be able to refer to 'homogenized milk'.

In this house, we only drink DIVERSITY milk, so as not to offend :)

I hate, loathe and despise the word "closure"
If anyone uses that word to me, I'm suing 'em.

Problems? Issues?
What are you talking about?

Where I work we only have "opportunities" :-)

But if they settle, will you have closure on the matter?

Ahhhh... Closure mouth! ;-P

But seriously, we need to proactively implement the assigned aspects of our sphere of influence. Right?

I'm afraid I have accumulated a minor in corporate doublespeak over the years.

Where I work, we have "opportunities to defy natural law" - otherwise know as corporate mandates.

A few years ago, it was "opportunities to excel". Then they added Word and Powerpoint, too.

I was ratted out by a co-worker who overheard me use the word HELL. She complained to her Supervisor as well as Human Resources. I was furious, then, and still am. The problem I have is if someone is offended by my vocabulary, THEY are the ones that need to attend the Tolerance & Diversity classes. Furthermore, I was not put on this earth to modify MY behavior because someone else if offended by my existence. To do so is to become a slave.
Now, I might add, the complainer was a black woman. I am a white man. But, I cannot think of any instance ANYWHERE, where the complainer WASN'T a woman...

What if she had said, innocently, "why, what a queer thing to say!"

Perfectly good use of English.

Maybe so, but just remember what happened several years ago to the city official who complained that his budget was "niggardly"...

I suppose next they will ban the Christmas Carol "Deck The Halls" because it says "Don we now our gay apparel"...

I think I'm going to make a point to use the word "queer"- as in strange - in front of my students at least once each semester.

I'll let you know what happens.

Last weekend we met with some friends, ate dinner and played some card games. There was a lot of laughter and joking around. I haven't felt that gay in a long time.

Damn flippin' straight---I agree with you fully.

What's more, I was/am pissed off that the offendee didn't have the "stones" to speak with me directly; it's not like we were unfriendly with each other, and if she were offended, she could have expressed her concern with what I said, and I could have told her what I meant by what I said. But like a third grader, she had to go straight to the teacher . . .
