A certain woke politician in the US recently had to do a lot of profuse apologizing for implying that only women can get pregnant. 

High time he "woke" up!

[2baht]

It's time people "woke" up and stopped "Re purposing" words!

[chalawaan]

Since the Thai/US/UK news cycle wasn't outrageous enough this morning, let's find something utterly pointless to have a grumpy old bitch-thread about until I can find my glasses and/or hearing aids, and head out to my favourite dive bar to spout lame pick-up lines that never fail, grab a few tip-based fondles and <deleted> away my pension on the worlds worst local beers.

 

Sad.

Though not woke, cannot stand the way TV people in the UK overuse, or just use, the word massively. Major cringe and reason enough to emigrate!

"literally" has taken on new meaning. I heard a football commentator say "he is literally on fire today". Makes me want to smash my head against a wall!!

I "woke" up at 6.00am, how many times do I have to say it! Bloody rooster "woke" me up!!! Time the "woke" brigade "woke" up and realised this word has been around as long as English has been in existence! "Woke" is the past tense of wake!!! Get it???

But I love Rooster's weekly articles - they force me to think early in the morning - (and from you being rude about Rooster, how much I like your comment and how much I love living in Thailand)

Same as Kwasaki......Woke.

As far as I am concerned Woke means to rise from sleep.

Indeed. It appears this happened for many US voters in the midterm elections.

Instead of saying contact someone it’s ‘reach out’

its not history anymore it’s now ‘back story’

god knows what ‘doubling down’ means, mostly used by Americans

Near all of them. ????????

Used to be. Wicked used to mean very bad and now it means terrific. Bad used to mean something nasty but now it means good. I have no idea what words now replace wicked and bad to mean something unpleasant. Women who act used to be actresses and now they have succumbed to male domination and are called actors. All very strange. 'It's the English language Jim, but not as we know it'.

Agreed, women get pregnant!

But there's also 'slightly pregnant'...

Gay.

 

What is wrong with the word homosexual?

 

I accept that words like "queer", or "fag" are abhorrent but

it is no reason to turn a perfectly good word into something

quite meaningless. And, if truth be told, many homosexuals

are anything but "gay" in a literal sense.

 

The word "gay" has been hijacked from the English language.  

It once meant "happy and joyful", but no longer.

 

I think it's a shame.

I dislike the whole "woke" BS topic.

 

This insidious rubbish seems to have bred and propagated during the last decade. It is non binary gender confusing, neo facist, feministic, Trans inducing, snot gobbling garbage.

 

Bring back the 70's and 80's.

How about: "Very unique" or "somewhat unique" or "This resort is more unique than the others." Drives me nuts. Unique is singular and solitary, something is unique or it is not.

I was in a shop in UK yesterday. They had a display of Christmas Crackers with cards displaying the contents one of which was 'Gingerbread persons'.....????
