killamch89 Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 I'm curious about the words we lean on the most in our everyday conversations. Whether it's a filler word like "um," a favorite phrase, or a term from your profession, I’d love to hear what it is and why you think you use it so frequently. Do you have a story behind it?

The Blackangel Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 The most common word I use is “fuck”. I say it in a dozen different phrases all day. Especially if I’m pissed off. But I also get extremely violent as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead2009 Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 I normally use "unbelievable" whether it be in text or IRL. There's no real story behind it though, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly though, we often don’t have the option of not believing it. Especially here in politics. The American political situation is literally life threatening. There was a shop owner in California that was murdered for displaying a pride flag last year, because some bigoted piece of shit has a problem with those of us in the LGBTQ+ community. Canada actually issued a warning to their citizens about how dangerous it is in the US due to the political climate. I honestly wouldn’t recommend that ANYONE even consider a trip here right now. With a hell of a lot of people here, you’re at extreme risk of everything from being beaten, to going home in a pine box. As soon as they find out that you’re a foreigner, you’re in their crosshairs. Telling them that it’s just a vacation and that you’re here as a tourist, or here to visit family doesn’t matter to them. It’s to the point that news channels don’t even bother covering it anymore. Save your own life. Don’t come here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save your own life. Don’t come here. I know. My aunt wanted me to come visit this summer but I told her the same thing - I'm not going to the US in an election year. On another note, Canada isn't really that much better either, especially the Toronto area in particular. The gang violence there is out of control. Vancouver that used to be such a nice place to go when I was a kid has been developing into a warzone. I wouldn't go there either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
