lol. this thread is so funny!
I don't think Paul Cho should be disliked? He is damn amusing.
Does your surname indicate right that you are Korean?
Dear Cho,
I'm glad you brought up what you did. Before, we were set on artificial insemination, but then when I showed your picture to my wife (to verify the quality of your genetics), she told me that she thinks natural conception would be better for the child. We were also set on having an only child, but now she's changed her mind and says she wants 4 or 5!
Will you be available over the next few years? And will you charge for your services?
Thanks.
I find this rather insulting, mish i thought more of you than to make such a comparison. You clearly have had no dealings with anyone with autism- otherwise you would realise how insulting that comment is.
Depressing how people use a disability as way of insult giving no thought to those who have to live with the real thing.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
No,I compare the situation where Misha called Cho an autistic person with a situation when anyone of us called someone a psycho

Autism and mental disease = Both are types of sicknesses . Somehow, you get upset when he calls him autistic (when he actually use this as an adjective of a person that Cho represents -
au·tism [aw-tiz-uhm] Show IPA
–noun
1.
Psychiatry. a pervasive developmental disorder of children, characterized by impaired communication, excessive rigidity, and emotional detachment.
2.
a tendency to view life in terms of one's own needs and desires. ) , but nobody protests when everybody calls each other psychos, where there is **** a lot of mentally sick people over there, for example someone from my VERY CLOSE family. Somehow I don't get upset,because I know that nobody intentionally laugh at the member of my family, they just use this word to describe someone's behavior. So leave poor Misha the **** alone, he's one of the ****ing nicest guys in this forum and I would give my two legs and arms that he would never, NEVER EVER laugh at any sick human being.
'Key ?

I think she is saying where do you draw the line in terms of mental illnesses or developmental disabilities....what is politically correct to say and what is not...that is what she is getting at I believe...could be wrong.
I'm guilty of using the word retarded in a deragatory manner....is it right?...no. Do have anything against those with disabilities? No?...its just sort of one of those slang words thats in acceptable common usage.
One of my favorite sayings is "what a bunch of homos"...but I have nothing against gay people and my best friend is gay...I suppose its slightly hypocritical or at least paradoxical.
I understand why Qwerty was so personally offended though since her son has autism....I'm sure Mish meant nothing by it....its just one of those things that offended somebody when it wasn't intended.
Completely baffled by a backward indication
That an inspired word will come across your tongue
Hands moving upward to propel the situation
Have simply halted
And now the conversation's done
I am the EgGmAn
HELL, I'm offended each time someone says "Nail polish" ... I feel like they are saying "Nail her" ;((((((((((((
