I've noticed my titles are so creative...
So... Greetings blog. You've been neglected, I still love you though. <3>Im a bit frustrated. Well majorly. You'd think if something really bothers you, your friends would respect that and not really argue about it or question it.
I'm trying to decide whether I'm angry or incredibly upset, and Im leaning towards really upset. Because I didn't exactly expect people just to blow me off.
I understand people have this word in their vocabulary. I understand how hard it is to break out of the habit of using a word. Im not even asking them to do that.
All I'm asking is them to respect the fact that it bothers me, and to try and not use it around me.
There are plenty of people that respect that and try.
And then there are the others. That seem to think it's a joke, I really dont even know what they think my request is.
Because all they do is argue with it or mock me.
When you request something and the person does the exact opposite. That's a huge slap in the face. and I didnt expect that.
I grew up around a group of people who were labeled as retarded and knew themselves as retarded. Just like I'm labeled and know myself as "white". It's the same idea.
When people started using their label as slang for "stupid" or "annoying" or anything along those lines... you have NO idea. No idea at all, how much it bothered them. Upset them and angered them is a better word.
And for those of you saying you created a new word, it's not related.
No, that's false.
You're using the same word. A word that defines a group of people, and changing it to mean something else. That's horrible.
And it bothers me. And when I tell my friends it bothers me, and then they just respond by mocking me and throwing that word at me, having the balls to call me it to my face RIGHT after I asked them to tone it down.
That's the equivalent of saying "I dont care about anything you say, fuck you."
And it makes me feel so wonderful.
How can people expect me to try and understand that they're bi, gay, trans, depressed, having issues in their life.
When they won't even respect the fact that a single word bothers me.
