The big difference, global, is that LA uses those terms in general, not at you specificly. If you take particular offence then that is on you. Remember this when you get edited. Just had to interject that. Also, if you found it to be such whining then why do you act so hurt by it. Maybe it holds a bit of truth to it? I've noticed that about most of those that respond to this post in the negative. It hits so close to home that they get rather defensive and try to pick it apart. In doing this they are showing a slip in their emotional control themselves. Not a very admirable trait. Personally, when I first read the OP all I could see was the terms as well, but looking beyond the terms you see where he is coming from and the sense he makes. Is this a rant? Yes. Did he need to use the terms he used? Well, it did get ALOT of people to read it and many the huge majority agree with it despite the terms used.
