Shik of It All
This week the crappy emo-band Say Anything dropped the video for their song "Shiksa," which manages to do what no Jewish outreach organization has managed to do as well: make interfaith dating seem completely unappealing.

wtf is that shit? I guess I like the part where they are disembodied heads but they really ought to be dead, putrid and swollen, not screeching insipid fag rock. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go shove an icepick into my middle ear.

Insipid fag rock?
Here, let me get that icepick for you…

Please, spare me your indignation. “Fag” is too good of a word to give up to your bullshit idea of politcal correctness. At the end of the day I’m the one on the street and paying my HRC dues and your the one thinking that queers are second-class citizens who shouldn’t be allowed to marry. So go eat a bowl-o-dick, bible thumper.

Erm…I’m gay. You are as perceptive as you are wise, Hesed,
Presumably people can use the same excuse for Kike or Nigger.
And it’s the Torah, not the bible.
Isn’t there an abortion clinic you could be blowing up somewhere? Or some gays you could be bashing? Need a lighter for that cross?
04.16.08 at 9:04 pm
... how about your pc ,Hesed. do you think gays should be allowed to marry?
04.16.08 at 10:04 pm
Right, except that kike and nigger have no vernacular value other than as derrogations. “Fag” has many uses that have NOTHING to do with homosexuality or degrading homosexuals…such as in the way I used it. Are you gonna get up on your high-horse when you light up a cigarette in London and someone asks you if you could “spare a fag”?
Take that facile “fag is the same as kike and nigger” analogy and get real. Maybe you could ask God to intelligently design you a clue. You’re the religious nut-job, not me.

Oh I didn’t realise you were the spokesman for Homosexuals all over the world, and that referring to something in a derogatory fashion by linking it to homosexuality was OK. Unless of course you were linking the music to cigarettes?
I’ll let all the gays know that some straight guy has determined fag and faggot are no longer offensive. Maybe you could go to the Bronx and let them know Nigger isn’t offensive either.
When exactly did you get declared the arbiter on what homosexuals could be offended by? I must’ve missed that memo?
Hesed, you give interspecies dating a bad name ;)

Maybe the Dingo took your baby?

I guess I’ll just have to repeat myself since you went ahead and ignored my last post completely in order to create your straw man to burn at your convenience.
I would not go to the Bronx (or anywhere) to convince a black person that the word “nigger” isn’t offensive because the word IS offensive and there is no other use for it other than as a derrogation…unlike the word “fag” which has MANY different meanings which have nothing to do with derrogating homosexuals. DID YOU GET IT THIS TIME, or do I need to write it again?
No one made me the arbiter on what you could be offended by, I’m just saying my use of “fag” in relation to this song has nothing to do with the cock you put in your mouth or the muff you munch so quit trying to make it so.
...and for your education, “fag” and “faggot” are not the same word AT ALL.
04.16.08 at 11:04 pm
So you’re linking the songs to cigarette, Hesed? What other meanings does fag have hmm? You’ve listed two and one’s been ruled out, which leaves the gay thing? So…what are the other meanings…we’re all waiting?
I don’t actually find the word offensive, but you’re so easy to bait that it’d be a shame not to set you off on another schizo fit lol. I knew you’d arc up as soon as I called you on the fag thing chuckles politely
So, now, what are the ‘many’ meanings of fag other than cigarettes and homosexuals? Anyone…anyone…Bueller…Bueller?
Oh and you didn’t answer Iconics question about Gay marriage, why is that? :)
Oh, and you wouldn’t go to the Bronx and say nigger ‘cos you know they’d kick your honky ass all the way back to Manhattan.
Aaah Hesed, always trying to keep a brother down.
Nice attempt at backpedalling though, you should try out for the Olympics with backflip skills like that ;)

No, I dont say the word “nigger” because its a racial derrogation with no other purpose than to debase.
Don’t try to play it off like you’re all cool with the word fag. You started this little bitch-fest and now I’m gonna hand you your ass like l always do.
If you must know, I was using the common transitive verb “fag” with the etymological meaning “weak, tired, droop” which when applied to that weak, tired and droopy song is completely fucking appropriate and just so happens has nothing to do with your ass-play. Look it up dumbshit. Are we fucking done now, or is there some other bullshit you’d like to stir up?

..and the reason why I didn’t answer Iconics question about my stance on gay marriage is because he’s smart enough to look up what HRC is. http://www.hrc.org/
04.16.08 at 11:04 pm
No you weren’t :)
You were using it in the gay sense, and everyone knows it.
And keeps your hands off my ass, I’m gay, not desperate shudder

The Queer Crescan is gonna presume to tell me what I mean and what I dont mean. I TELL YOU that I didn’t use the word fag in reference to homosexuals. You say “there is no other meaning other than cigarettes”. I say there is, then you asked me to give you the meaning of the word fag other than its reference to homosexuals AND I DID. What the fuck to you want from me, cupcake? You really need to get laid.

I just wanted to make you irate enough to start resorting to homophobic insults…my work here is done };)
And you did mean it in the gay sense, it took you quite a while to find another meaning for it, you must’ve been googling like crazy!
You’ve been a great audience! Thankyou very much!
It’s like shooting fish in a barrel ;)

I don’t see how anything I said is in any way homophopic. Judging from your up-tight and weird sensitivity to your own sexual inclination it looks to me like you’re the one with the hang-ups, not me. I have no problem with queers. (considering my advocacy efforts over the years, that’s an understatment) With your personality, it wouldn’t surprise me to find out that I had more gay friends than you.

hands you your ass
With compliments ;)
04.17.08 at 12:04 am
OK… just so long as you stfu up now.
04.17.08 at 12:04 am
I’m not making any promises ;)
04.17.08 at 10:04 am
Dude, this video totally sucks. Right, guys?
04.17.08 at 11:04 am
The power of emo compels them
04.17.08 at 1:04 pm

It is classic suck.
