They say life isn't perfect...but I say not everything has to go your way in order for life to be perfect. It just has to be enough.

Sure, hard work can only bring you so far. But I think you need a sprinkle of luck to make it perfect, which I believe Felix received in his life.

You can't joke about saying the n-word, it's not okay or acceptable, why not just joke about other ♥♥♥♥ that you find offensive instead? What's stopping you?

Wait what?

The most offensive thing you can say to me is that DmC is better than DMC, because I genuinely don't care about other things, therefore I'll joke about them. Joke about my color, my nation, my taste, I genuinely don't care as long as it makes me chuckle.

Come on, give it your best shot, make a joke on my end.

Which part of "its only bad if it harms someone" did you not get? Joke is a joke, and my coworkers are smart enough to understand that. Don't think they're going easy on me too, we're having a blast.

"Its only bad if it harms someone" So you think its okay to say the N-word...just say that ur racist and move on dude.
And no, I don't think ur black co-workers knows this, cause if you said the n-word openly, you'd be fired for LIFE.

Not that I think people should say the n-word, they shouldn't, but I have noticed coworkers sometimes develop a certain humor that would be unacceptable in any other context. It doesn't have to be anything more then that to it.

You just said "i don't think people should, but they do, so theres that."
It should NEVER happen.

I'm not gonna say ♥♥♥♥, but I'm pretty sure if someone went up to you and said "jokingly" that they were going to r*pe ur mom and bash her head in, I don't think you'd find that pretty funny, maybe you wouldn't get angry at it, but other people do, and it's not about "finding it offensive" or whatever, It's about to NOT say stupid ♥♥♥♥ that's racist, homophobic, or xenophobic, what part of ur brainless head of urs can't you understand that it's not okay?
Gosh what a mouthbreather...

If you were so nice as you make yourself out to be, why do you insist on insulting me this much? Like chill out, I am supposed to be the bad guy here.

And you can't respond to a simple question or argument except to say that i'm "hostile" and that i'm "insulting" you.

How about we put an end to this eh? Its clear you can't take anything spicier than a minion meme, and there's no way you'll ever see why I think this is laughable.

The long and short N-Words are used in ways that vary, also intent is what matters the most between what you think; outright hate, to everything else it is used for, within context.

I personally don't like the word, but people are free to utter it as they wish, especially since it's used between the same race of people that call each other that often with very few words between the next usage.

You're not the morality police, and this is not reddit or twitter.
I've worked with people that have said way, way worse things on a very diverse team to each other and in general, and everyone got along fairly well. Intent matters, and having thick skin is often needed to be in the general public.

If you would just know the history of the dark ♥♥♥♥ that I've seen on the internet, it would make ur cesspool memes look like a f*cking square dance.
And sure, let's end this, you think it's okay to say the n-word, and probably openly racist about it aswell, continue to be a garbage human filth.

Guarantee you that you haven't seen that bad of things on the internet compared to the stuff I've admin'd out of existence before users could even see it (not on Steam) with an extremely active site, which made it a huge target.

You not liking what people are ok with, doesn't make them human filth. How you're acting and reacting, is making you the not-so-great individual here which is clearly losing the argument with the other individual.

Duh, I get that people utter it as they wish (As Pewdiepie does) and you are excusing people to do this, I don't even think that POC people should do this, whenever I hear a black person saying the N-word with the hard R or A, I cringe, and I find it distasteful.
I bet if someone said the N-word around you, I bet you'd go "oh funny, haha" and wouldn't give two ♥♥♥♥♥ about it...
God people are so dense on off-topic nowadays, f*ckin hell..

This is where i think you go off track. Luck doesn't exist. Pewds made himself through uploading videos every single day. It's the hard work that's made him successful not luck. "Luck" doesn't keep people watching.

You used the term "POC", and want to dictate what they should and should not do based off of your opinion? That's not very PC. What you find distasteful, can be simply banter to them, which is none of your business realistically if they use the word to each other or not, no matter how uncivilized or distasteful it appears.

I'm around people that use the words frequently, doesn't bother me. I don't find it funny, but I do not dictate how they live, nor will I dictate how they talk. I'm not the morality/culture police. Nor are you, if you don't like it then say or do nothing. Or, if it is two POC - do be extremely vocal about it and let us know how that goes, assuming you survive such an encounter.

I'm not excusing people, I'm protecting their right to say as they wish - it's not illegal to do in the public, they're not calling for violence or unlawful action when just uttering some low-end words. They're words, the intent and how you react to it is all that matters, everything else is you not minding your own business.

I don't know him (or his wife) and I never really liked his videos. But yes, he was lucky to be able to surf on that whole ridiculous social media hype wave, like many others. On one side, I really don't like how someone can get rich with doing that kind of nonsense, but on the other side, he's just a normal guy and his success doesn't come at the expense of other people (I hope). At the end, I just couldn't care less. I'm intetested in other content anyway. But even on some art or crafting channels I see the impact of their success - number of videos goes up, quality goes down.

"Successful"? I mean, I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want that kind of life.
