It doesn't. It defines how I use words. Plus, the dictionary's definition matches what they say. Now.

I'd hate to see what the dictionary had to say about homosexuality half a century ago.

Probably about the same exact thing it does now. Rarely does the dictionary inject some kind of moral or social commentary into it. Depending on the dictionary. If you are just using google you are doing a disservice to yourself.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if at some point the dictionary defined homosexuality as a mental or sexual disorder.

Well, the first two editions of the DSM didn't have the brightest view on it.

Sometimes a cigar is just a big fat juicy cock.

And Bat, I called him child in response to him calling me an old man as a way to discount my opinions.

I've never professed to being smarter than anyone. I am maybe a bit wiser than some just because of accummulated life experience.

Safe to say a vast majority of past generations in the USA were spanked when they were young - and yet the world kept on spinning.

I put the whole "don't spank" thing right alongside the recent "helicopter parenting" thing. Same to a degree for the "no vaccinations" thing.

THINK OF THE POOR CHILDREN!!!!!!!!!!!

This is off-topic, but if I was a mod, I'd give you a temp-ban for the bolded statements. You make statements, insult people when they disagree with you claiming self-defense, claim you're not arguing, make an attempt at arguing anyway, and to top it all off, you claim you're objectively superior to everybody else (which is also an argument on its face).

Maybe you're not breaking rules with these individual posts, but it's pretty easy to argue that your pattern of behavior is disruptive.

For the record, the "grow up child" was in direct reponse to being called an "old man". And you might want to go back and read a few more pages. I catch **** from others here all the time about "my age", "my lack of intellignece", "my naivete", etc. Not sure why you're singling me out.
