8:39 am

Don't know....that word and the italian dago" bother me, also.

8:46 am

bichon

The mysteries of Enable

8:58 am

mkg

i agree totally. lets feed hatred.

8:58 am

mkg

there are others that are offensive too.

9:04 am

NatashaW

yes, the slang for Italians is also a "word" on this game

9:16 am

Shirlockc

10:24 am

Judi

Huzzah. Fireworks!

10:43 am

Tomago

The N-word is included. Oddly, Negro is not.

10:50 am

rubyfoo

They need to weed out all their "acceptable" racist epithets. And je6 is really offensive! They don't much like Jews hre, but l've never heard a racist word

10:51 am

rubyfoo

I don't know if my Neighbors know that l'm Jewish. My name is white bread!

10:54 am

Tomago

It's a word.

10:54 am

Tomago

I get it that it's offensive.

10:54 am

Tomago

The F-word, the C-word, the N-word. All offensive. but they are words.

10:56 am

Tomago

try putting some offensive words in. You'll be hard pressed to find one that's not included. And some of them are truly vile.

10:56 am

Tomago

There's a censored version of enable. You could look for a puzzle that uses that. Otherwise, get over it.

10:58 am

Tomago

BTW: I'm Italian Jewish. I've enter the Italian slurs (there's two at least) innumerable times. Never once did they offend me.

11:13 am

Biltong

Hi all. Clue for the eo6 please?

11:14 am

rururocks

I think everyone is referring to political correctness Tomago.. just like Homo offends gay people...maybe it's time for them to be removed from the dictionary and enable since they are offensive.. just a thought.

11:14 am

rururocks

eo 6 a belief in ages and time

11:15 am

Biltong

ty, ruru

11:16 am

mattygroves

I think there are offensive words in the grid; but because there's no context here (i.e. they are in a word list/word game) they are much less so than when used as a slur or even in jest. Removing them from the word list won't make them go away quickly (though, arguably, removing them from dictionaries and word lists would help them die a death...if only racists would themselves stop using them)

11:16 am

rururocks

racists will never stop using them .. unfortunately.. it's part of their hateful arsenal

11:17 am

mattygroves

I'm not particularly upset by their presence, but then, I'm in a position of privilege, not having those words used against me or to describe me. I totally understand people who are, though.

11:30 am

Tomago

What offends me is including words like a 1/100 part of a kwanza

11:37 am

rururocks

I'm sure that's a joke.. but I don't get it

11:39 am

skheiny

Im pretty sure it's jews and not Jews. Maybe I misunderstand the rules of the game...but I thought that proper nouns were not allowed (as in the people), but as a plant (ie. wandering jews) that's the reference here. Don't get me wrong, racism is abhorrent...

11:43 am

sammysmom

i am part passamaquoddy inian from maine. i remember my father telling me when i was a chil to not mention my heritage in public.... he did not get several jobs because he was part indian.. he said he remembers his grandfather said he wished is grandfathers people had killed the goddam round eyes when they first landed

11:43 am

rururocks

well.. they're all bad.. this chat does seem to take offense to anything Jewish or Hebrew quite quickly however

11:53 am

Biltong

I don't condone racism at all, nor vile language. Sometimes these words appear only for the purpose of completing the grid

11:53 am

rururocks

on that note.. I wish black people wouldn't call each other the N word either ... it seems to be part of their speech patterns though.

11:56 am

sammysmom

think you know racism???? or slurs?? my number 1 daughter marrie a catholic.. number 2 married a jew and mumber three married a black man.. we have papists, kikes and niggers in my familyand well love eac other an have no lack of friends and we ont worry about the jerks who have a problem or a \comment

11:56 am

sammysmom

teat is their problem, not ours

11:56 am

rolotom

ruru, that is about reclaiming the word, by using it in their community it takes the power out of it in the white community

11:57 am

rolotom

It's important and strategic

12:03 pm

Biltong

Clue for li5/18 please?

12:13 pm

origami

like a kind of cod biltong

12:17 pm

Biltong

found it, ty origami

12:18 pm

origami

you're welcome

12:20 pm

rururocks

it actually doesn't take the power out of it at all Rolotom.. I just reinforces the white Power racists that it is ok to use that vulgar term

12:21 pm

rururocks

I married a jewish woman Sammy.. I had a black girlfriend once.. I think I know something about racism... although I live in a pretty progressive state

12:26 pm

UnikeTheHunter

Got the 7. When your sprained arm feels better.

12:27 pm

Biltong

12:28 pm

rururocks

12:46 pm

Biltong

12:47 pm

Biltong

bbl, thanks for the clues

12:47 pm

SamanthaJoy

bye for now

12:52 pm

harpjane

I know you just tried to change the subject, but I'd like to point out that I have played the C word and the F word when playing Words With Friends----with priest! No holds barred!

1:34 pm

MollyL

It amuses me how people take offense at some words and not others. People used the term gypped all the time. That term is offensive to gypsies. But no one seems to care much about that.

2:17 pm

libarebel

I had, years ago, a short stint in a homeless shelter== I asked my black friend, Dorothy, why the other women called me "nigger"-- she told me that it meant that I was accepted & liked--

2:19 pm

libarebel

It made me uncomfortable, though, as I was brought up to NEVER use that hateful word...

2:21 pm

libarebel

I've also lived w/ a black man for the past 14 years (I'm white)...

2:23 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

hi all, diving in

2:31 pm

libarebel

I also think that "jew", when used as a verb, is really offensive...

2:36 pm

rururocks

priests are appropriate for F words and molest words :D

2:36 pm

libarebel

I was the only kid in our neighborhood who said "catch a kitten by the toe" w/" eeny, meeny, miney, mo"-- all the other kids used the "N" word & made fun of me-- I still said "kitten"-- now it seems like animal cruelty :D

2:36 pm

rururocks

well libarebel.. there is more ways to skin a cat ..

2:37 pm

libarebel

:D-- ruru-- don't get me started on Catholics-- I'm an ex

2:37 pm

libarebel

LOL, ruru!

2:38 pm

rururocks

there are I meant :D

2:39 pm

libarebel

oh, grammar schmammar!

2:41 pm

rururocks

I always hated it when the priest would say bend over for your penance

2:42 pm

libarebel

Oh dear!!!

2:43 pm

rururocks

just kidding

2:44 pm

libarebel

I went to confession once & said I hadn't sinned & was met w/ an angry retort that I had committed the great sin of Pride-- made to say a gazillion Hail Marys & Our Fathers...

2:45 pm

libarebel

Glad you're kidding-- phew...

2:45 pm

rururocks

I never went to church as a kid.. hated it

2:46 pm

libarebel

I was dragged kicking & screaming (not literally)

2:47 pm

rururocks

i got expelled from Sunday School actually

2:48 pm

kje

hola

2:48 pm

rururocks

greetings doc

2:50 pm

kje

hot up there today?

2:50 pm

libarebel

My mom was Protestant & I was told by the Sunday school nun (Sister Mart Edmond) that I had to convert her or else she couldn't go to Heaven-- I told my mom, & she called up Sister M.E. & totally reamed her a new one-- made Sunday class a bit uncomfortable for me :D

2:50 pm

kje

we melted hiking in sonoma yesterday... though heard it was worse on saturday

2:50 pm

libarebel

Mary

2:52 pm

libarebel

I was allowed to drop out of Sunday by my mom after Sister Mary Edmond incident :D

2:52 pm

libarebel

School

2:52 pm

rururocks

i was in the pool all day kje and had cold cocktails to stave off the heat.. it was 106 at my house

2:53 pm

kje

alcohol, heat, water... nothing can go wrong there ; )

2:53 pm

rururocks

my parents were protestant also.. but never went to church.. it cut into their gambling weekends in Tahoe

2:54 pm

rururocks

i was asked to leave Sunday School for cutting up and joking. Can you imagine?

2:55 pm

libarebel

Sister M.E. also told a class of 9 year olds "Don't be touching yourselves"-- I was clueless about what she meant... that was actually thelast straw w/ my mom-- Yay! Free on Sunday!

2:56 pm

libarebel

Cutting up & joking is a Mortal Sin!

2:56 pm

rururocks

Sister ME and I wouldn't get along either

2:57 pm

libarebel

She may have decked you, ruru-- she was a large mannish woman :D

2:58 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

some protestants are okay with joking -- such as me

2:59 pm

rururocks

I was a tiny kid until my senior year in high school

2:59 pm

libarebel

I am an agnostic with Pagan & Buddhist leaning..

3:00 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

angry is my phanton

3:00 pm

rururocks

I'm an atheist pure and simple

3:00 pm

rururocks

when i die.. my grave stone will say
"all dressed up and no where to go"

3:01 pm

libarebel

You would have been picked on by Sister ME, ruru-- she was a bully!

3:01 pm

rururocks

probably.. i had a bit of a mouth when i was a kid

3:01 pm

libarebel

Great gravestone :D

3:04 pm

libarebel

I was quiet & shy-- unless someone picked on me-- I never started a fight, and never lost one-- sent neighborhood boy bully bloodied & crying "Mommy" as he ran home!

3:05 pm

rururocks

I've really never been in a fight..

3:07 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

a bit of a mouth? heavens no!!!

3:08 pm

libarebel

I guess Lowell MA (where I grew up) which was then a gritty mill city was known for tough kids-- I had to defend myself on several occasions...

3:09 pm

libarebel

Did you say swear words w/ your "bit of a mouth"?

3:11 pm

libarebel

I'm glad you changed your icon, ruru-- I'd developed a crush on that Japanese actor!

3:11 pm

hoyamd

clue for the ga6/36 pls

3:13 pm

hoyamd

please?

3:14 pm

kje

ga6?

3:14 pm

kje

yes, same as hoya...

3:15 pm

rururocks

RHYMES with what you wrap a wound with

3:16 pm

hoyamd

3:16 pm

rururocks

and then add a couple vowels

3:17 pm

hoyamd

thanks!

3:17 pm

hoyamd

fw

3:18 pm

libarebel

Ending of ga is like a nickname-- like y is often (kind of lousie clue...

3:18 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

ty, all, got the ga6 at last

3:20 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

12 to go, time for a food break

3:20 pm

MollyL

Ru, I have to agree with your earlier comment. People can lambaste the Catholic Church here but if the same sentiments were made about other faiths, people would be insulted.

3:20 pm

kje

fw - hagd all

3:25 pm

libarebel

Well, the Catholic Church had a really public scandal-- I don't know if other churches have less sexual abuse as the Catholic Church, or are just more careful about hiding it...

3:36 pm

rururocks

i think many church

3:36 pm

rururocks

I think that many faiths requirement of celibacy is the main problem.. it's just not human nature unless it is a very special human being

3:37 pm

libarebel

Ooh-- sudden FW! Last word(s) sw5/18 & plural...

3:37 pm

MollyL

I agree Ru and I have heard priests say similar things.

3:38 pm

MollyL

However I would not go as far as to say all who choose celibacy are bound to molest children.

3:38 pm

libarebel

I totally agree ruru-- I think that that may well be the crux of the problem...

3:39 pm

libarebel

no pun intended w/ crux...

3:39 pm

Bugsaw

I agree that the unrealistic requirement of celibacy is the root of the problem of abuse in the Catholic church too but for many predators the church offers up obedient children who are taught not to be disrespectful to elders.

3:40 pm

Bugsaw

root of the problem was not meant as a pun either ;)

3:40 pm

libarebel

So sadly true, Bug...

3:41 pm

libarebel

:D, Bug!

3:42 pm

rururocks

i think it is a problem with lots of churches bugs, including the greater exposed catholic church.. it's bad news. Sexual abuse of Children is just about the worst thing imaginable

3:43 pm

libarebel

Way too often, children who have been abused are accused by their parents of lying...

3:43 pm

Bugsaw

I really have a problem with the Jehovah Witness church providing sanctuary for abusers by trying to stop gossiping. Good idea. Wrong solution.

3:43 pm

rururocks

exactly

3:44 pm

libarebel

Spot on, Bug!

3:44 pm

rururocks

and all the cults have problems like this too

3:44 pm

MollyL

Most faiths encourage obedient children who are taught not to be disrespectful to elders.

3:45 pm

rururocks

<--missed out on that teaching

3:45 pm

Bugsaw

I agree Molly, and I taught my kids to be respectfull of everyone, even if they didn't like them. But I also told them to speak up when they saw injustice, just do it respectfully.

3:46 pm

MollyL

Then you have the bad seeds, like me, who subscribe to the theory "show me a rule and I will show you six ways to break it"
: D

3:47 pm

libarebel

I guess I'm a bad seed as well, Molly

3:47 pm

rururocks

I'm just seedy

3:48 pm

Bugsaw

I just thought rules didn't apply to me ;)

3:48 pm

libarebel

I used to announce that rules are made to be broken, until squelched by parents...

3:49 pm

Bugsaw

I worry about kids who are TOO good.

3:49 pm

libarebel

yes, Bug-- rules were for other people...

3:49 pm

rururocks

I tend not to follow rules either... hence my divorce :D

3:50 pm

libarebel

I was married long ago & far away-- for 1 1/2 years--

3:51 pm

rururocks

.. i have you beat there lib

3:51 pm

Bugsaw

I don't mess with marriage vows, just the odd stop sign when ruru visits

3:51 pm

libarebel

didn't get the "obey" part of love, honor vow right...

3:51 pm

rururocks

LOl.. looking forward to breaking the law in BC again in a month :D

3:52 pm

rururocks

making that little old lady lunge for the curb was a little over the top though bugs

3:53 pm

libarebel

Pot smoking is, however, just as much fun when it's legal-- better w/ no paranoia about getting caught--

3:53 pm

Bugsaw

I didn't promise to obey. But I have since learned that to obey in biblical language means to listen. I am a good listener, just not so good at obeying

3:53 pm

Bugsaw

we are not quite there yet libarel but it is coming to Canada

3:54 pm

rururocks

I obeyed.. but mostly when we role played :D

3:54 pm

libarebel

I have medical authorization, & just LOVE the Sativa gummies-- very mellowing & really works for back pain too!

3:55 pm

rururocks

pot doesn't do much for me.. I really don't care for it

3:55 pm

rururocks

it's far too strong out here for a weenie like me anyways nowadays

3:56 pm

libarebel

It depends on the strain, ruru-- Sativa is the mellow part, while Cannabis is the edgy part...

3:57 pm

libarebel

On July 1, Canada goes green, right Bug?

3:57 pm

mattygroves

Does anyone please, have stats for the A in the bottom row?

3:58 pm

Bugsaw

an 4,4

3:58 pm

Bugsaw

It has been moved back to Ocober 19 now

3:58 pm

rururocks

an 4 a little buffalo

3:59 pm

rururocks

it takes one to an4 one

3:59 pm

libarebel

I even invested a small amount of $$ in penny pot stocks-- may soar after Canada legalizes it...

3:59 pm

rururocks

well.. i hope that investment doesn't go up in smoke

3:59 pm

libarebel

Oct. 19? Why?

4:00 pm

libarebel

ruru-- I do gummies so that it doesn't...

4:00 pm

mattygroves

I have several an4/4s....none of which come from that A. Hmmmm

4:01 pm

rururocks

it's a babblet matty... we have it all the time

4:01 pm

rururocks

an4/6

4:01 pm

libarebel

go up in smoke, that is-- don't want my $$ to be "wasted"!

4:02 pm

Bugsaw

It is a national change so all the provinces and local governments needed more time to sort out the details of how and where it would be sold and how it was to be monitored. also, need to determine and put laws in place regarding levels of intoxication etc.

4:02 pm

mattygroves

Got it, thanks. I don't know why I thought it was a 4/4 - I misread

4:02 pm

Bugsaw

I would not be any happier that someone who was blitzed on dope drove over my kid than if he was drunk on alcohol. Reason must be a part of this.

4:03 pm

rururocks

there goes BC's productivity.. strong pot and beautiful scenery.. everyone is just going to space out

4:03 pm

rururocks

i'll start a driving service up there for potheads bugs.. don't worry.. i'll call it guber

4:04 pm

Bugsaw

all the cities and towns are worried about how many shops should be allowed and/or if they can be next to day care centres and schools etc

4:04 pm

Bugsaw

love the name !

4:04 pm

aslindy

whew got the top row done

4:05 pm

libarebel

The same thing is true of Massachusetts, Bugs-- also it's a tougher process, since it's still illegal at the Federal level-- we have only medical dispensaries; waiting on red tape in MA for recreational...

4:06 pm

libarebel

I never drive when I do pot-- I am far too frightened--

4:06 pm

rururocks

i think i was in college the last time i smoked po

4:06 pm

rururocks

pot

4:08 pm

Bugsaw

exactly libarel. Reason has to be part of this but if there are no rules there can be no consequences and way too many people can't follow their own moral compass because they don'thave one.

4:08 pm

libarebel

In my drinking days, I always felt that I was "fine" to drive-- in retrospect, I consider myself to have been very lucky to not have been in an accident-- I'm a teetotaler by necessity-- 15 years now...

4:09 pm

libarebel

you are so right Bugs!

4:15 pm

libarebel

I had expected to "outgrow" pot, but that never happened-- wasn't just a phase for me-- also I've grown older, but not more "mature"...

4:15 pm

libarebel

Wiser, though, for sure

4:16 pm

rururocks

don't get me wrong.. I'm not anti-drug.. i think it should be legal.. it helps a lot of people

4:16 pm

libarebel

I'm clear w/ that, ruru

4:18 pm

Bugsaw

exactly ru. people have to make up thier own minds. I stopped when I had kids. Too many dangers with inhaled drugs and little brains. I worked in the schools for years and some of those kids were living in grow op houses. It was on their clothes, not their breath.

4:19 pm

Bugsaw

I am done. Must go for a walk inbetween rain downpours. Weird weather day here. Happy Babbling

4:19 pm

rururocks

it is windy but sunny here

I broke my knee in Sept. in an auto accident, and I was given Oxycodone for pain-- it backfired and caused me to be sleepless or, if able to sleep, horrible nightmares-- that's when I got the gummies per my doctor-- it did wonders for the pain, & the buzz helped greatly w/ my cabin fever...

4:23 pm

rururocks

that sounds pretty painful

4:23 pm

rururocks

I get vicodin for headaches.. but that doesn't bother me much

4:25 pm

libarebel

It was agonizing-- I couldn't even have the weight of a sheet on it-- it was the tibial plateau-- the top of tibia & down the front of tibia...

4:28 pm

libarebel

The only opiate/opiod I can take is percocet, but it doesn't work as well as gummies-- pot is also non-addictive...

4:35 pm

libarebel

Any clues needed before I get back to building my milk crate bookshelf?

4:47 pm

libarebel

Ah well, hagd, everyone!

what's your summer job,minver?

9:42 pm

Minveryork

I'm a group leader at a day camp. Never worked at camp before. I am a little bit nervous about it because I am so out of shape. I'll be huffing & puffing the first 2 weeks.

9:47 pm

harpjane

what kind of campers do you have?

9:49 pm

Praes

anyone have a clue for the u

9:50 pm

Minveryork

The camp is for students in grades pre-k to 8th. I will be working w/different groups every day. It makes it more interesting to work w/different groups instead of just 1

9:50 pm

Minveryork

The un 7/40 is un + what a holds a fractured arm maybe

9:50 pm

Hi TraderKate! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.

9:54 pm

harpjane

That sounds like a fun yet challenging job, Min!

9:55 pm

Minveryork

The pay is also very challenging; below minimum wage.

9:56 pm

Minveryork

It's better than nothing though. 3 days ago I did not have a job, so I am glad I got this last minute. Some money is a lot better than no $$$ at all, plus no commute 4 me.

9:57 pm

harpjane

Is it s recreation type camp?

10:01 pm

Minveryork

Yes, it has all kinds of different activities from sports to zip lining to arts and craft and swimming.Looks like fun.
