And there was a time that gay meant happy and a removed was a piece of fire wood. Though the Brits, in their usual word butchery, turned that into fag for cigarette.
Languages change and morph. They are living things. And despite the French’s best effort to try and prevent it.
You butchered your own word removed to get fag. And who eats veg? And soccer that the US gets blamed for. We got it from you! Mangling words is what Brits do because they are orally lazy!
*****For those without a sense of humor, this is meant in fun.
So lazy and yet wanting to be respected. Oh we don’t eat cows. That’s for the poors, we eat beef.
Bunch of fuckin tea sippin wankers. But for the brits sake, words ending in re instead of er does look better to me. Theatre over theater. Colour is more colorful of a spelling…
Regarding the gays, didn’t they use to burn gay people which is why the term connected from bundle of sticks to gay people? And probably why we use flamer as well, now that I think about it.
We raise cows. We eat beef even if we are poor, we don’t discriminate. Well, up until the prices these days. It’s going back to being a rich person’s supper. Much to the joy of Vegans. But even cow is better than beouf or it’s variations.
re vs. er? bloody silent letters again. Colour looks like a wannabe upjump word. And there is the whole silent letter thing again.
Those crude heathens probably hanged them the majority of the time vs burn. Wood costs money and takes time. A rope is cheap and faster plus it’s reusable and fits their attitude.

Did you self-censor? It says “removed” in italics. I don’t know what a piece of fire wood could be called to be so offensive to self-censor
A fagot is a bundle of sticks or firewood, pronounced the same as the slur.
fagot faggot
just checking whether it shows up if i type it. all of bluewing@lemmy.world’s messages just say removed…
yep seems to work. maybe bluewings client
It shows as removed to me still. Maybe not for you. Maybe my instance is censoring it.
If I did, it was by accident.
F@g for cigarette is still used in the UK. So much so that the BBC once used it in the 2010s to refer to cigarettes in a news report.
That is true. Can’t argue that. But isn’t slowly fading away as generations pass?
We used it to mean cigarette before yanks turned it into a slur. You’re the butchers here!
