I was watching a top cooking show... Top Chef. One of the poll choices was actually said. Are any acceptable? One was said and in my opinion always is acceptable despite how it would sound if another group said it.

The poll reads: I want to win this for __________.

EDIT. My phone messed up poll.

Mod. Please add poll. Options are...

I want to win this for:

Black people
White people
Men
Women



Thank you.

Thank you.

If you mean politically correct, it would be equally permissible to win for either of the challenged groups, if you do not call them challenged. ;)
 
My "I DON'T CARE METER" just pegged at zero.

A person from one of those groups sai d they were going to win for that group. What group do you think it is and why can tbat group get away with it without being called out with an "ism"?
 
lol. Where is the option where you ask a mod to delete the thread?
 
Awesome...

Bodhisattva,

You are free to use that for future web postings if you like.

I created it on PowerPoint earlier today, and then captured a screen-shot and cropped it.

Simple, but somehow effective.
:2wave:

But your I-Don't-Care Meter is registering below zero. I believe that concept of negative numbers is most certainly too sophisticated for some discussions.

I created that graphic in about ten minutes.

The tags, "Zero", "I care a little bit", and "I care a lot" were placed simply near the dots indicating those metrics.
Not necessarily right on those dots.

Again, I dedicated very little of my creative energies in that particular effort.

I will endeavor to apply better science and technical-accuracy in creating my next humorous meter.
And thank you for keeping me straight.
:)

Click on the icon on the bottom left of each post that has a triangle and an asterisk, a popup Report is displayed, inform the Mods, they do not monitor ever thread 24/7 and as with any site the rely on members to point out "issues". TaDa

On what grounds would they delete it? :lol:

It is a valid topic...

There is no such option... reporting it as suggested means to show to mods thata rules violation has occured. Since none... *shrugs*

Oh Golly! My Bad! I mistakenly thought you were expressing embarrassment at what you had posted. Nevermind. :2wave:

Dude! I'm saying I think you're a DP National Treasure. Keep contributing those graphics, you hear? :clap:
