Middle East

There’s so many commonly used phrases with a problematic past. In fact, the past is and always will be problematic.

“It was a cakewalk” has slavery origins.

“No can do” originated to demean Chinese railroad workers.

There’s so many more that everyone in here uses every day.

I don’t know I guess I find it weird to pick and choose. Is it because this one has the word cotton in it? It’s a little too on the nose?

I looked those up and yeah those are cringe. When Im old enough where the kids are making ok xennial memes Im just going to pretend to be mute or something because Im not gonna get canceled over blurting out that's what she said when the kids are having a conversation on the future internet over implied consent.
 
Are we sure that it was our bomb (or an Israeli one) that did it? No matter who fired it, this was a terrible tragedy.
No confirmation…not gonna believe anything without visual evidence though…MN murders sealed that one for me… regardless it happened cuz we decided to save people from bloodshed??…how f$&king ironic…

Yeah. What I read was that it may have been a misfire from Iran but I wouldn't put it past them for it to be intentional to generate international sympathy. I also wouldn't put it past us (or more likely Israel) firing internationally to generate fear in their population. Definite ESH situation but that is common in war.
 
Guess Israel is attacking targets in Lebanon now. This is going to turn into a full blown regional conflict.
 
if only they would have given tRump the nobel...he would´ve been giddy and not lashing out like a fourth grade tantrum...
