Words or phrases you can't say any more.

In the coarse media would we live in today it is unbelievable that many of the Bob & Tom bits from the 80's, many of us heard on live radio back then are not legal for them to air today...

Quotes that go together:

From the prosecutor in the Geert Wilders case:
“It is irrelevant whether Wilders’ witnesses might prove Wilders’ observations to be correct. What’s relevant is that his observations are illegal.”


Pat Condell says, “When the truth is no defence, there is no defence”

When the truth is not "legal" (or some terms used to describe the truth), and even humor becomes "illegal," we're getting near the end.

So now people find transmissions and transformers to be offensive?

This may fit, or not, but INGO will enjoy the story...

There is a guy that my wife used to work with that we have kept in touch with because he's a very nice guy, but that happens to be very left wing. He was once very much a part of the 60's counter-culture, drug using, hippie type. The walls of his house are decorated with Soviet Communist propaganda posters. He and his wife ran calling centers for Obama when he ran for President in 2008 on a volunteer basis. When Trump was elected he put out yard signs stating that his house was a welcome place for Muslims, gays, etc.

His daughter is currently not speaking to him because he used the phrase "Go Ghetto" in reference to something her black boyfriend had done. She now considers him an intolerable racist. I had never heard the phrase before, but he says he learned it from a black friend many years ago and it simply refers to doing something in a stereotypically African-American manner.

It's just amazing, and sad, to me that even though she has literally known him all her life, and he is literally the one that raised her to have the beliefs she has, he is still a racist for using that phrase. The left eats its own.

I was told a few years ago that using the word ghetto is no longer allowed. The particular phrase being "ghetto rigging".

Luckily my wife and I are on the same page about such things. Just need to be wary around the 6yo, never know what might get picked up and repeated.

Ah spaz is a good one that I forgot.

A lot of these are hard to think of because, well, they've done what they set out to do... stigmatize a word to the point where you find yourself not saying it for a while... and eventually it gets forgotten, and feels uncomfortable to use again.

You can't say "I JEWED THEM DOWN when you have negotiated a good deal. Offensive to the Jewish community.

A couple for baseball:
”Chinese Home Run” (“Cheap Home Run”—one that barely sneaks over a short, low, or short and low outfield wall).
”Pull a boner” (originally “Bonehead Play”; sometimes “Pull a rock”—such as running on a fly ball when there are fewer than two outs).

I nearly caught an infraction on ingo for abbreviating “Japanese” when referring to a certain style of kitchen knives. People are sensitive.

Oh I've gotten grief over calling 6.5x50 ammo "6.5 Jap" before.

Commie Pinko Fag, because while it may be descriptive (looking at you mayor Pete) it is apparently no longer allowed. I would suspect that most of these are no longer allowed because they are descriptive. SJW just means control the language, control the debate, anyone who disagrees is a hater; then make hating illegal. Of course it's only their hate that is allowed.

At least the expression “Pinko Meathead” should be useable, since we have Rob Reiner as its walking embodiment.

"Pinko fag junkie," as in the famous George Carlin sketch.

Correct. I still use that version
