What exactly is wrong with those sayings? Are they racist or something?
Nah nothing wrong, just highlighting the poetry of an apt simile that's rare in common parlance
Thank you!
Yes. Everything poor people do is racist, sometimes you just have to get creative and assume bad faith to figure out exactly how.
Lights are on, but nobody's home, huh?
Hey now with all the saying I know and find out have racist origins and shouldn’t say that shit anymore, I dunno why you’d dunk on someone trying to be better
The part where you assumed something southern also had to be racist was where you accidentally revealed your own prejudice. People may be noting the irony approaching hypocrisy.
This is how the left eats itself
Username checks out. Tacticool cringe AF. 🤣
Project much, cupcake?
Are you a couple of cards short of a full deck?
It’s just fucking unnecessary vulgar
Vulgarity, jackass 🤗
Spank ya very much, sweet cheeks.
Bless your heart
People are giving you shit but all the racist ones have slowly died off or aren't said publically lol.
They'll get you in trouble with HR pending who you say it to though.

From first link:
Says a bit about the writer's understanding of the matter.
Does the nomenclature matter that much? Why not primary vs literally anything else?
'Master' copies would just be original. They aren't hard words to get around for the vast majority of the population.
My bad, took something for granted. My issue is with Drupal being called a programming language. That's like saying BMW is an aluminum smelter.
