      Don’t forget how casual the r word was. Every comedy of the 90s and 2000s called somebody that. It’s still too commonly used but nothing like it was back then.

        not to mention the casual use of the hard R. even Linus from LTT admitted to have dropped his fair share of hard Rs back then.

        Yeah my friends and I unfortunately used it when we were in grade school and it was so commonplace. Then I didn’t use it for probably the last 17+ years, but now it seems like it’s making somewhat of a resurgence? I’m hearing it more often again which is totally inappropriate

      We had a couple weeks calling people “F.A.G.s’ and “M.A.G.s” for 'female ass grabber” and “male ass grabber”. As in someone how grabd a females ass or or a male ass. I have no idea how the teachers were able to do anything about that with a straight face.
